You are viewing a 1975 Lincoln Mark IV in bullion gold (of course that is not the actual name of the color, but in the sunlight it glows exactly like a bar of gold) with corresponding leather interior.  It is a two-owner, 44K mile automobile with a strong 460 cu in motor and all the power accessories, including ice cold A/C.  I recently fitted the car with new whitewalls and invested $700 in an extensive tune-up and an A/C service and refresh, so it is absolutely ready to be enjoyed.  The second owner purchased it in 1977 and It is unrestored and nearly flawless.  I urge anyone serious about acquiring it to come look at it in person; it will astound you.  The paintwork is the best I have ever seen and it has to be one of the most impressive Mark IV's in the nation.  It is literally the color of a bar of gold.  I've included a photo of a brake rotor and caliper I took when the tires were being put on to give you an indication of just how well-preserved this car is in every way. And additionally, I was even able to locate the build sheet less than a week ago, which will allow you to trace the originality of this car much more thoroughly than you otherwise could.  Its a heck of a treat to find a piece of documentation on an automobile that has been hidden away and untouched for more than 35 years!

This is by far the most striking Mark Series automobile I've ever seen and I just had to relate this anecdote.  On the day that I worked on the photos for this listing I happened to stop in front of a small country church just as the attendees of a Saturday afternoon wedding were exiting the building.  The bridal party was moving off towards their cars and the congregation was still miling about and saying their goodbyes on the church steps as I sat at the intersection waiting for traffic to clear.  It was a beautiful day -- perfect for the lucky newlyweds or for a cruise in a cool car -- and I was admiring the scenery and the well-dressed paritioners, and pondering the twists of fate that have to this point allowed my to avoid the marital yoke.  And just as I was at the peak of my pleasant reverie and preparing to pull away a girl in the bridal party turned and pointed at me in the Mark and said, "Hey look at that car!" Well, apparently everyone was watching the bridal party exit because as if on cue all of the seventy-five or so people turned in unison and watched my slowly drive off.  I'd like to think they saw the appearance of a pure gold Lincoln as a sign that the union was charmed.  It was a cool moment for a very deserving automobile, because it has been meticulously garage-kept and cloistered for decades, it seemed only right to show it off a bit and let it shine in the afternoon sun.  Enjoy the photos and the video at the link below!

If you would like additional photographs of the underbody or more photos of the engine compartment, please email me and I'll get them to you.  They are both as impressive as the exterior of this fine automobile.

Autoblog's Editors' Picks: Our complete list of the best new vehicles

Mon, May 13 2024

It's not easy to earn an “EditorsÂ’ Picks” at Autoblog as part of the rating and review process that every new vehicle goes through. Our editors have been at it a long time, which means weÂ’ve driven and reviewed virtually every new car you can go buy on the dealer lot. There are disagreements, of course, and all vehicles have their strengths and weaknesses, but this list features what we think are the best new vehicles chosen by Autoblog editors. We started this formal review process back in 2018, so there's quite of few of them now. So what does it mean to be an EditorsÂ’ Pick? In short, it means itÂ’s a car that we can highly recommend purchasing. There may be one, multiple, or even zero vehicles in any given segment that we give the green light to. What really matters is that itÂ’s a vehicle that weÂ’d tell a friend or family member to go buy if theyÂ’re considering it, because itÂ’s a very good car. The best way to use this list is is with the navigation links below. Click on a segment, and you'll quickly arrive at the top rated pickup truck or SUV, for example. Use the back button to return to these links and search in another segment, like sedans. If youÂ’ve been keeping up with our monthly series of the latest vehicles to earn EditorsÂ’ Pick status, youÂ’re likely going to be familiar with this list already. If not, welcome to the complete list that weÂ’ll be keeping updated as vehicles enter (and others perhaps exit) the good graces of our editorial team. We rate a new car — giving it a numerical score out of 10 — every time thereÂ’s a significant refresh or if it happens to be an all-new model. Any given vehicle may be impressive on a first drive, but we wait until itÂ’s in the hands of our editors to put it through the same type of testing as every other vehicle that rolls through our test fleet before giving it the EditorsÂ’ Pick badge. This ensures consistency and allows more voices to be heard on each individual model. And just so you donÂ’t think weÂ’ve skipped trims or variants of a model, we hand out the EditorsÂ’ Pick based on the overarching model to keep things consistent. So, when you read that the 3 Series is an EditorsÂ’ Pick, yes, that includes the 330i to the M3 and all the variants in between. If thereÂ’s a particular version of that car we vehemently disagree with, we make sure to call that out.

Lincoln Aviator concept takes a shine to Shinola

Mon, Aug 2 2021

At the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, Lincoln is displaying a special Aviator concept that was created in collaboration with the Detroit-based Shinola brand of watches and accessories. The SUV features unique exterior design elements, but the most eye-catching aspects are found in the cabin. The interior is awash in Shinola's whiskey-colored leather, which for once in an automobile actually looks like real cowhide. The rich, brown hue contrasts sharply with off-white cloth seat inserts and more off-white on the dash and door panels. Tying the two colors together is a neat center stripe on the seats that is another Shinola signature design element. The dash and center console also are adorned with a metal mesh trim, said to be inspired by Shinola watch bands. The exterior, meanwhile, is finished in pearl white, similar to Shinola's mother of pearl watch faces. The wheels and grille insert are matte copper. For now, the Aviator Shinola concept is just a design exercise. But a good portion of the Lincoln brand's recent comeback can be attributed to its emphasis on interior design, and specifically, an imaginative use of color and materials. So, we could see Lincoln making a collaboration like this official. After all, they've done it before. A Shinola Aviator is just the hipper, modern version of the same idea that sold the Continental Mark V back in the day, as the commercial below reminds us. This content is hosted by a third party.

2020 Lincoln Aviator fuel economy revealed

Tue, Jun 18 2019

Ford finally revealed some of the last details, such as fuel economy, for the non-hybrid 2020 Explorer. So it's no surprise that its classier corporate twin, the 2020 Lincoln Aviator, has had its own fuel economy data released by the EPA. Though, like the Explorer, we only have information for the non-hybrid versions. The 2020 Lincoln Aviator has just two engine options, a base turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 with 400 horsepower and 400 pound-feet of torque, and the same engine coupled to a hybrid system with 450 horsepower and 600 pound-feet of torque. That base engine is the one we have fuel economy numbers for, and it's shared with the Ford Explorer ST, though the ST's version makes an extra 15 pound-feet of torque. With all-wheel drive it gets nearly the same fuel economy as the fast Ford with 17 mpg in the city, 24 on the highway and 20 in combined driving. The Explorer ST gets one more mpg in town. Unlike the Explorer ST, the Aviator does offer rear-wheel drive with this turbocharged V6. This model gets improved fuel economy of 18 in the city, 26 on the highway and 21 in combined driving. This isn't too surprising, since all-wheel-drive vehicles often do a little worse when it comes to fuel economy. We'll be especially curious as to how the Aviator hybrid performs. We doubt it will match the Ford Explorer hybrid, since that crossover relies on a less-powerful naturally aspirated 3.3-liter V6. But it might give the all-wheel-drive four-cylinder Explorer a run for its money, since the rear-drive V6 Aviator is only 1 to 2 mpg behind it. Related Video:
