 This is a beautiful, well cared for, 1979 Lincoln Continental Town Car, with the extremely rare factory Fixed Glass Moonroof option. There were only approximately 1,500 made in 1979 with this option. Mine was owned for the last 25+ years by an older gentleman, James, and this was his 'Dream Car', as the monogrammed dash protector indicates.

Metallic blue with white padded coach top, and plush Kashmir Velour interior, which was an extra option. This car has all conceivable options offered in 1979, including factory CB radio for extra safety on the road. In fact, short of the "Collector Series" insignia on the side, this car has every option offered in 1979, and I think looks better than the Collector Series, which did not have the rear opera windows.

This is also a Lincoln Continental "Town Car". In the seventies, the "Town Car" was not the model, it was a trim level which designated the top of the line for the model. Not every Continental was a Town Car, but all Town Cars were Continentals.

This is the last year for the big Lincolns, and this was the largest production car in the world in 1979.

This car looks and runs great. I purchased it after the previous owner passed away, and his wife offered it for sale. The next day, I drove this classic land yacht over the Rockies, the Sierras, and back home to Denver across both mountain ranges. The ride was incredibly smooth and she performed without hesitation or incident. In other words, she drives smooth and strong and crossed the highest points in North America without a problem.

I only purchased her for this road trip, which is now complete. But since this was the 'Dream Car' of the prior owner, I feel a responsible to be the caretaker of this car. So while I am now selling it, and everything is factory original to the best of my knowledge, I have added to the care and love of this classic by putting on new tires, new shocks, new catalytic converter, new starter and recent oil change & engine servicing. I could have passed on the expense for these, but would like to send this unique car to its next owner in the best condition possible.

The interior is in excellent condition, and the exterior is in good condition. The car is 34 years old, and garaged, and the paint is original so there is some oxidation on the hood which I suspect could be buffed out, and a few minor chips in the paint. But you can see from the pictures that she is in all around good shape, no dents, scrapes, etc.

Everything is factory original and in working condition with the exception of the power door locks, which are a little slow, but likely just need an adjustment. Power windows, seats, antenna, stereo, cruise control, heat, A/C, etc. - all work.

My friends have been encouraging me to keep this car, but I have two others and I really don't need three.

If you're looking for a 1979 Lincoln Continental Town Car, this is a nice one, and I suspect you'll find precious few in this condition, and next to none with the rare factory fixed glass moonroof.

I would love to find a good and caring home for this classic gem.

Lincoln taps Serena Williams to pitch all-new Navigator

Fri, Feb 16 2018

Lincoln is turning to a new star to help it pitch the hot-selling Navigator SUV alongside Matthew McConaughey: Tennis megastar and businesswoman Serena Williams. She'll help pitch the Navigator in a social media campaign that launched Thursday. Lincoln released four short spots that will appear on Lincoln and Williams' social channels. In one, the longest at 41 seconds, Williams recalls buying her first Navigator as a teen and says she's come full circle as a mother. She dubbed the vehicle "Ginger." "Ginger was all white, she had 22s and she had rims," she says in the spot. "I felt like, you know, I was kind of balling in a way. It was like my first huge purchase." Another shows Williams talking on a tennis court about being a mother and how the vehicle functions as a kind of bedroom for her daughter, Olympia, who was born last September. "For me that's what's most important." Like the McConaughey spots before them, the new spots hew to the Lincoln script of mostly not focusing on the vehicle but rather on experiences. (Williams' experiences seem a lot less ethereal than McConaughey's.) View 4 Photos Williams is known for her tennis exploits, having won a record 23 Grand Slam singles titles and four Olympic gold medals. She has fashion deals with Puma and Home Shopping Network and launched her own fashion brand called Aneres. And she operates the Serena Williams Fund to emphasize education and help victims of gun and domestic violence, plus the Williams Sisters Fund, which she launched in 2016 with her sister, Venus. Serena Williams is also a member of the Oath Board of Advisors. Oath is the parent company of Autoblog. "Serena is an amazing athlete who has won 23 Grand Slams, but she also has a family, she has her own clothing line, she sits on major boards, she's philanthropic — she has all these competing demands on her time," Lincoln Group Marketing Manager John Emmert said in a statement. "We know that time is our Navigator client's ultimate luxury as they balance everything in their busy lives, and Serena exemplifies that balance with poise and grace." It's not the first time Williams has endorsed an automotive brand, notes AdAge. Mini featured the tennis star in a Super Bowl ad in 2016. The Navigator is all-new for 2018. It won North American Truck of the Year last month at the Detroit Auto Show. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences.
