Up for your consideration
is an absolutely beautiful, well taken care of 1976 Lincoln Continental Mark
IV. THIS IS A 100% TURN KEY
CAR NEEDING NOTHING BUT A GREAT FAMILY TO ENJOY!
This car was purchased from
the second family of ownership. The wonderful man in his 70’s that owned
it last bragged on how he lovingly took care of the car, and how he was very
sad to see it go.
OK everyone… you know the
feeling in your gut when you get a car that has been loved and cared for? That is exactly how this car will make you
feel! This is an extremely well cared for, properly maintained car and
everything works. The body is gorgeous and rust free with no accidents or
damage. There have been some minor paint touchup to cover some scratches over
its valiant 40 year history, but I am confident we all can stomach that quite
easily.
All gauges work fine, the
seats are extremely comfortable (It’s like sitting in your home recliner) and
the leg room in all areas is just simply amazing.
The Driving Experience:
The car starts without any
trouble, no squeaks, noises or extensive pumping of the gas. It is extremely
quiet and is the definition of luxury. One can feel the power behind that
huge 460V8, it easily handles the sheer size and weight of this car with ease. You can feel very confident of your safety and comfort whether it’s a day
trip or driving coast to coast.
It drives beautifully at
85 miles an hour with no rattles, shakes issues. It also brakes perfectly
and does not pull to either side. The previous owner did have the brakes
recently serviced. He was very big on
preventive maintenance; which in turn will benefit the new owner of this car.
The tires are new and
really enhance the smooth ride and driving experience! Plenty of tread
left for miles of enjoyment; and no additional expense in terms of replacement
need.
Exterior:
Let the pictures speak for
themselves! The car has a few touchup spots but nothing to be concerned
about. There is no evidence of
accidents, rust or rot on this car. It looks just as good underneath as
it does standing right in front of it. If you look at the trunk, the
quarter panels on the inside are perfect. There are no waves, creases, scratches or rust. You can drive this vintage beauty to a car show or
family gathering and the looks and compliments are great. The prior owner
won a trophy for a show he entered, that will go with the new owner!
All lights, directional
signals, courtesy lights work as they should including the hide-a-way headlight
doors.
The vinyl top is beautiful
and the molding has inlaid vinyl and not a scratch, mar or issue! The
brightwork on the bumpers and chrome rims are simply amazing - no curb rash, pitting or scratches.
Interior:
The seats are supple
leather and are power adjustable; ladies and gentleman this is a road car! The interior is completely original, and show beautifully. The door panels are gorgeous. The only
flaw I see in the whole car are the leather pull handles on the driver and
passenger door, have some cracks. They are fully functional, but that is
about the only issue I see. The arm rests are very comfortable. Heck all you need is a remote and a TV and you are set!
The dashboard is perfect, no discoloration, cracks or blemishes. The gauges are clear, no fading
scratches or cracks. Literally, this looks brand new. The car was
garaged, maintained and not abused at all.
The windows are electric, they go up and down without delay and the seals are proper. They are not dried
out, cracked or misaligned. The glass is original to the car, never
replaced, no scratches, blemishes or fading.
The heat works as it
should as well as the defroster. The air conditioner was converted and
works beautifully! The car is a non-smoker car, no odors or damp smells. The trunk retains its original carpet and it is dry! The spare is there, according to the gentleman I bought it from, he said it was never used! The
factory jack looks like it was never removed when the guys at the plant
installed it!
The radio is factory, it
has an 8 track player and it all works perfectly. There is simply nothing
aftermarket in this car at all. It is what I would call “bone stock”.
It has a fully functional
and desirable factory sunroof - it works perfectly and is tinted. This is
one of the best features of this American treasure! It opens and closes as it
should.
The doors do not sag or
are misaligned; you close and open them with ease!
Mechanically:
Take a look at the engine, its factory and all of the components are in position as they should. The
smog equipment is still in place and connected. The battery is relatively
new, plenty of electricity to run this car on long trips!
The transmission shifts
flawlessly through all gears no slipping or hesitation. The steering is superb, as it should be with a new power steering pump and hoses. The front end
is properly greased and shows no uneven wear on the tires. As big as
this car is, it is great on gas and uses regular unleaded fuel! The carburetor was also recently rebuilt for
improved performance. One of the nicest cars I have had the privilege of
owning!
