This Lincoln Continental Mark IV is in excellent condition with all
systems operating properly including the ice cold air conditioning,
power windows, power antenna, and front hide-away headlight covers.
This handsome luxury car is from a local collector who loves big
Lincolns and he takes incredibly good care of them. Over the the
last 30 months he made this great car even better with over $20,000
worth of restoartion including new tires, water pump, thermostat,
engine resealing, brake master cylinder, new wiper motor, power
steering pump, hoses, new brakes and pads, new shock absorbers, new
ac compressor, and new carburetor. The previous owner who the
consignor purchased the Lincoln from owned the car since 1974. Here

Equipment includes - 460ci V8 - Automatic Transmission - 33k Miles
- Maroon Over Brown Interior Produced from 1972 through the 1976
model years, the Lincoln Continental Mark IV is a personal luxury
vehicle that shared its chassis with the Ford Thunderbird. Although
it saw little direct competition in the American marketplace, it
nearly exclusively competed against the Cadillac Eldorado, which
was redesigned for 1971. Lincoln brought back hidden headlights
along with a radiator-style grille and a Continental spare tire
trunk lid for this generation. Available only as a two-door hardtop
coupe, the new Continental was four inches longer than the previous
model adding to the visual impression of an extremely long hood.
With so little differentiating the years and models of this
generation, savvy buyers will want to concentrate heavily on
condition and mileage when seeking out these vehicles. Highlighted
here is a 1973 Lincoln Continental Mk IV which presents the epitome
of 1970s luxury. Shown with what appears to be its original maroon
color, black vinyl top and pinstriping, this vehicle displays the
fact that it has been owned by the same owner since 1974. With
hidden headlights and larger-than-life front fascia, this vehicle
reminds us of something that a mafia boss would drive on his off
day. The exterior is in very nice condition and all the chrome
components shine with great luster. The black vinyl top retains its
initial appearance and is offset by port quarter windows on the
rear quarters. This large luxury sedan is powered by a 460ci V8
that is paired with an automatic transmission and only shows 33k
miles on the odometer. With a full engine compartment, you can be
assured that this vehicle will float down the road and provide the
smooth ride that you should expect from any Lincoln Continental.
The chassis and undercarriage show a little wear from the small
number of miles but appear solid and functional. For the driver and
passenger, you will find a completely brown interior. From the wood
inserts on the dash to the carpet and the brown button tuffed
seats, it is brown as far as the eye can see. All interior
components are in excellent visible shape with few signs of wear.
The only thing that we would be able to gripe about would be what
appears to be a missing section of carpet in the trunk. Regardless
of whether you are looking for a personal luxury time capsule or
feeding into your internal mafia boss spirit, this Lincoln is the
perfect sedan for you. Like mentioned above, these vehicles
differentiate themselves through mileage and condition and this
vehicle is a very nice example. We hope that you consider adding
this Continental to your collection. Please call if interested or
e-mail with any questions.
