Introduced in 1968 as an early 1969 model, the Lincoln Continental Mark III is regarded as the spiritual successor to the limited production, ultra-luxurious Continental Mark II. The Lincoln Continental Mark III was the first in a long, successful run for the Lincoln Mark series.

Utilizing the Thunderbird frame as the basis for the platform, the Mark III would carry close to 300 pounds more in body weight and appointments than its counterpart; putting its 460-cid, 365-hp V-8 engine to good use. The exterior features a Rolls-Royce styled grille, hidden headlamps and a spare tire bulge on the trunk reminisce of the Continental kit on its predecessor. The wire wheel covers have their own subtle styling cue that adds to the overall look. The official name for this distinctive look as described in factory literature was “stainless steel, turbine-textured flared wheel covers.”

The gold-toned Mark III has a complementary leather interior that is described as “like new.” The Lincoln has been sparingly used, and it is sumptuously equipped with power steering, brakes (with front discs), windows and both front seats. Additional equipment includes air conditioning, black vinyl top, Goodyear whitewall tires, radio with power antenna and 8-track tape player. Wood applique on the dashboard, full instrumentation and expertly fitted upholstery are commonplace in this model which came with many luxury appointments expected of the top-flight Lincoln of the era.

Formerly of the Harrah's collection with it's brass Harrah's tag still intact, the car is described as being very nice overall with few imperfections; plus the original spare tire and jack are found in the trunk.
