Little-remembered today, Lincoln's seventh-generation Continental
"Mark" was highly regarded in its time for its performance,
engineering, and superior comfort. The Mark VII from The Shrine of
the Holy Grille is, typical of this collection, a remarkably
original and very low-mileage car, with just 2,519 actual miles
recorded at the time of cataloguing. As an LSC model it features
both the first ABS used on an American production car, as well as
air suspension, both highly desirable features. Accompanied by the
original window sticker, it may well be the lowest-mileage Mark VII
LSC remaining in existence, and marks one of the best opportunities
to complete one's Continental "Mark" collection.To view this car
