1973 Lincoln Mark Series

Lincoln Mark Series (1973)
for sale

Price: US $850.00

Description:

This is a 1973 Lincoln Continental Mark IV with 67, 324 miles on it, a 460 cubic inch V8, and an automatic transmission. It has a clean title, and from 2011 to early 2016 it was running, registered, and tagged. However, the accelerator pump started going bad and the battery died. Those things are the ONLY things that should need replaced in order to have it running again.
I paid $800 for this car when I purchased it in 2011 and I replaced the following at that time: new shocks (all 4), replaced the radiator hoses (both), replaced the belts (all 3), replaced the distributor, replaced the spark plugs, replaced oil and oil filter, replaced headlights. I stripped out the interior to check for rust. I found no serious rust, so I added some noise and heat reducing panels to the floor and then replaced the carpet. The power-adjustable driver seat still works. One set of power windows works, the other does not. I coated the bottom of the vehicle with a rust-proofer. I lightly sanded the exterior and then painted it with paint-and-primer, flat black.
I've spent over $1, 500 on this car and who knows how many hours. I'm selling it at a loss because I don't have the time or money to repair it or continue restoring it and I need the money to help pay some student loans.
I will be selling this as local pick-up only, being sold as-is, no warranty. It will need to be loaded onto a trailer to move it.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

Condition:Seller Notes:
Used
“DOES NOT RUN - needs a new battery, and I recommend replacing the accelerator pump and rebuilding the carburetor. Needs a lot of TLC if you're hoping to restore it, a fair amount of rust on exterior (minimal to no rust inside vehicle). Exterior has been lightly sanded and coated with flat back paint+primer to preserve the metal but will need some bondo work or replacement of panels to restore it properly. Interior has defects standard with vehicles this age: splits in the seats, carpet worn, 8-track player does not work, headliner has been removed, and some of the interior panels in vehicle have been removed (but will be included with car in sale).”
