Vehicle Description
The Lincoln Continental Mark V was a luxury coupe sold by the
Lincoln division of Ford Motor Company from 1977 to 1979 in North
America. The Mark V was derived from the Mark IV, but with an
extensive interior and exterior design update. The Mark V was sold
for three years and is considered to be the best-selling generation
of the Continental Mark series, with 228,262 units built. This
Diamond Jubilee Edition was built to celebrate the 75th anniversary
of the Ford Motor Company in 1978. These special edition Mark Vs
were the most expensive vehicle ever sold by the Ford Motor
Company.
This particular Mark V is powered by a Ford 385 7.5L V8 engine that
generates 208 horsepower and is mated to a three-speed Ford C6
automatic transmission. It has only 9,994 original miles and
features diamond level comforts like, air conditioning, a power
sunroof, power windows and leather seats. It has never seen winter
weather and has been continuously stored indoors and is completely
original.
This MARK V Diamond Jubilee is from the impeccable Bob "Wheels"
Hohenforst Collection.
