Vehicle Description

For Sale: 1979 Lincoln Continental Mark V – Collector’s Series

My apologies for the incorrect information I included in the original posting. That's what happens when an old guy tries to do things from memory ...

The pictures reflect that the interior of the car has been cleaned but not professionally detailed, and, that the exterior of the car has been washed but not waxed or polished.

🔧 Mechanical Notes

This vehicle starts and moves in and out of the garage but has not been registered or driven on the road since 1995. As such, it will require:

- Systematic inspection of fuel, brake, cooling systems  

- Fluid changes, belt and hose replacements  

- Tire replacement due to age  

- Battery and ignition system inspection

- The drivetrain is believed to be original and intact. An engine-start can be arranged for serious buyers, but the vehicle is being sold as non-running for safety reasons.
