Gateway Classic Cars of Charlotte is happy to digitally present
this 1986 Lincoln Mark VII Bill Blass Edition represents the height
of 1980s American luxury, blending unmistakable designer styling
with advanced technology and V8 performance. Finished in a
sophisticated two-tone Sandalwood paint scheme - lighter Sandalwood
above with darker Sandalwood below - this Bill Blass edition is
accented by the signature bright blue pinstripe that distinguished
the designer series from the standard Mark VII models.
Inside, the cabin is appointed with rich tan leather seating and
elegant woodgrain interior trim, creating a refined and comfortable
driving environment true to the Lincoln name. Luxury features
abound, including power seats, power windows, electronic digital
instrumentation, and Lincoln's innovative outside keyless entry
system, a premium convenience feature well ahead of its time. The
factory premium coaxial sound system further enhances the grand
touring experience.
Power comes from the legendary 5.0L V8 Sequential Multi-Port
Electronic Fuel Injection engine, paired to a smooth-shifting
4-speed automatic transmission driving the rear wheels. This
combination delivers dependable performance with effortless highway
cruising capability. The Mark VII's advanced engineering included a
fully independent 4-wheel air suspension with automatic leveling,
providing an exceptionally smooth ride while maintaining proper
stance and handling characteristics.
Braking duties are handled by front disc brakes and rear drum
brakes, while the car rides on factory 15-inch Bill Blass aluminum
wire spoke wheels that perfectly complement the upscale designer
appearance. The original spare tire remains properly stored in the
trunk.
Combining luxury, innovation, and unmistakable 1980s elegance, the
1986 Lincoln Mark VII Bill Blass Edition remains a standout example
of Ford's premier personal luxury coupe era.
