Vehicle Description
There are cars, and then there are statements-rolling testaments to
an era when luxury meant something more than just a list of
features. The 1970 Lincoln Continental Mark III stands as one of
the finest examples of personal luxury ever built, a machine that
exudes sophistication, power, and an undeniable presence. With just
30,134 original miles-documented and verified as actual-this
stunning Mark III is not only a rare find but a time capsule of
American automotive excellence.
From the moment you set eyes on this grand coupe, it's clear that
this Lincoln was built to impress. Originally finished in Light
Gray Metallic, the car underwent an exterior cosmetic restoration
in 2014, emerging in a deep, lustrous black that perfectly
complements its formal black vinyl roof. The long, sweeping hood,
hidden headlights, and intricate grille define the unmistakable
presence of the Mark III, while the complete Appearance Protection
Group ensures this luxury masterpiece remains as stunning as the
day it left the showroom.
Underneath the sculpted hood lies the legendary 460 cubic-inch 4V
V8 engine, an engineering marvel designed to deliver effortless
power and torque. Paired with Lincoln's Select-Shift automatic
transmission, this Mark III glides down the road with a smoothness
only found in the finest luxury automobiles of its time. The
Traction-Lok differential ensures power is always applied
efficiently, while the Sure-Track Brake System, power front disc
brakes, and power steering create a driving experience that is as
secure as it is refined.
Inside, the Mark III offers a level of luxury and comfort that
modern cars struggle to match. The 6-way power seats provide a
perfect driving position, complemented by a tilt steering wheel and
speed control for long-haul comfort. Power windows, power door
locks, and a remote-control deck lid release add a level of
convenience ahead of its time. The automatic temperature control
ensures a perfect cabin climate, while the tinted glass provides a
touch of privacy and UV protection.
This Continental is equipped with the finest in technological
advancements of its era. The Cartier electric clock, a mark of
prestige, sits proudly in the dash, while the AM/FM stereo radio
and power antenna deliver crisp, period-correct sound. The
automatic headlight dimmer provides a touch of modern convenience,
adapting seamlessly to changing road conditions. Flow-Thru
Ventilation enhances interior comfort, allowing fresh air to
circulate without the need for open windows.
With an included original window sticker and build sheet, this Mark
III is a collector's dream, a fully documented piece of Lincoln
history. A folder of receipts accompanies the car, detailing its
preservation and maintenance over the years, ensuring confidence in
its exceptional condition. Whether you are an avid collector or
someone who simply appreciates the unmatched elegance of classic
American luxury, this 1970 Lincoln Continental Mark III is an
opportunity not to be missed.
