Vehicle Description
Zoom Classic Cars is pleased to present this 1978 Continental Mark
V Diamond Jubilee Edition. The Mark V version truly was limited
with production of just 5,159 cars. To set it apart from the
ordinary Marks, the Diamond Jubilee was available in just two
colors: Diamond Blue and Jubilee Gold. Whichever color you chose,
it would be repeated throughout the car. In addition to the special
Clearcoat paint, the padded Landau vinyl roof featured color-keyed
moldings and integral Coach Lamps. The vinyl-insert bodyside
moldings, vertical bars on the grille, bumper guards and rub
strips, four turbine-style cast aluminum wheels, grille ornament,
and padded vinyl deck lid kickup with matching vinyl-insert lock
cover were all coordinated. Inside, the interiors of the Diamond
Jubilee Edition Mark V's were the most luxurious ever installed to
date by Lincoln in a production car. Also matching the exterior
color scheme, the interior featured front bucket seats with a
padded center console. The console provided extra storage and came
equipped with an umbrella built into the underside of the padded
armrest. The seats were upholstered in luxury cloth with a unique
sew style, and had broad lace inserts as distinctive reminders that
this was NOT your ordinary Mark V. Just recently pulled out of
long-term storage and is now for sale; this classic Lincoln has
just under 26,000 original miles. This is a one owner all original
car that has not even been cleaned or detailed in years and has
been stored indoors under a car cover. One of only 1,511 produced
in Diamond Blue Moondust Metallic with the factory sunroof. PS. A
quality classic car is a diversified investment you can use and
enjoy during your ownership while it increases in value. Save
