1971 Lincoln Mark III
Car History
The 1971 Mark III, like the one we have here at Adventure Classics,
was considered the top of the class as far as personal luxury
coupes were concerned.
Ours is a great-looking car with a long hood, spacious cabin and
sizable trunk area that carries the signature Continental
wheel-shaped contour. The pale-yellow shade is very appealing and
the black hard top is in excellent condition too.
But what makes it unique is that it is a one-owner car that has a
true mileage of only a tad over 25,000 miles.
Engine & Drivetrain
A big car like this Mark III deserves a big engine, and that is
what it has got with a 460 cubic inch V8 engine sitting in this one
with the horsepower pegged at 365, it runs well and has all the
power you need.
It has the 4-barrel carb and is paired with a 3-speed automatic
transmission for a very enjoyable driving experience. This lengthy
cruiser's suspension is also in good shape and, combined with the
Mark III's long wheelbase, gives a great comfy driving experience
with safety too as it has power steering, 4-wheel power brakes,
including discs in front, stock Lincoln wheels and hubcaps and
fitted with new thin white sidewall tires.
Interior
The dark brown original Interior is really impressive and fully
loaded with options including the split power bench seat in front
and back, power seats, tilt column, cruise control, power windows
and locks, air conditioning, automatic dimming headlights and much
more.
The trunk area is every bit as cavernous as you'd expect and a
factory original spare and jack is also in place.
The Lincoln has the original Owners Manual, original sales order,
and was last titled in 1988 with it being in storage since.
Exterior
It is painted in a pleasing pale-yellow shade that has a great
shine, body fitment, the chrome trim is in good shape, the bumpers
in front and back are straight and clean, and the doors, hood and
deck lid all open and close smoothly with clear glass that
surrounds the cabin.
The black top is in excellent condition too.
Conclusion
The curb appeal of this one-owner 1971 Lincoln Continental Mark III
we have here at Adventure Classics is a car you don't often come
across. It is a classic and ready to drive anywhere in the country
you want to cruise, in 70s style.
