1979 Lincoln Continental Mark V Cartier Edition. 


Purchased recently in an estate sale. The family told me the man who passed purchased the car in 1979 from Gateway Lincoln Mercury in Sheffield, AL. This car was bought for his wife.  It was always garage kept and properly serviced.  To there knowledge it has never been in any accidents.  It had been sitting in a garage not driven since about 2001 until I purchased it in February of 2013.

Has only 68,000 miles!!

Expect the normal wear and tear of a 34 year old car with 68,000 miles.  The paint, which appears to be original, is in very good condition with only a few minor chips and scratches.  The chrome is in very good condition with some minor dings and scratches.  Doors open and close with ease.  Headlights stay closed even after sitting for a week.   Power windows, headlights, radio, antenna, all lights, power trunk opener, cigarette lighter, 6 way power seats are all fully functional.  Power sunroof is fully functional with no leaks.  There is some deterioration of the rubber seal.

A/C Blows Ice Cold!!

Items that are NOT fully functional: Power locks (passenger side will lock only), cruise control (works sometimes), clock

Engine is the 400 cid V8. It does not drip oil or any other fluids.

Tan Cloth interior is in very good condition.  There is some ware on the driver and passenger armrests. The plastic covering on the woodgrain is pealing of in a few places.  There are no cracks in the dash

The tires have 80% to 90% tread. They are not in perfect balance from sitting for 12 years or more.  The more I drive it the the better they are. The car still drives great but sometimes at low speeds you can feel the tires.  In my opinion is was not enough to replace the tires.

This is a car you can drive anywhere!!

I tried to get detailed pictures of all imperfections.  If you need more send me your email.  You can also contact me at 256-762-8171 if you have any questions.  Leave me a message I will call you back.

Please remember this is a 34 year old car.  I have made every attempt to be honest and truthful about the cars condition.  

Please DO NOT Bid if you have no intention of buying this car.

I have a clear AL Title

Buyer is responsible for all aspects of shipping.  I can help out locally, within 20 miles of 35630.

A non-refundable $500 deposit is required within 48 hours of auction end.

Lincoln says MKZ supply crisis over

Mon, 25 Mar 2013

After an excessive number of recalls on the 2013 Escape and Fusion, we can't really fault Ford for being a little extra cautious with the launch of the 2013 Lincoln MKZ. Last month, we reported that dealer supply of the car was extremely limited due to more attention being paid to quality checks of cars rolling off the assembly line, which led to a 73-percent drop in MKZ sales from last year on top of a 32-year low in monthly sales for Lincoln in January.
The reason for the delay was that the sedans were being shipped from the Hermosillo, Mexico assembly plant to be inspected even closer at Ford's Flat Rock, Michigan plant before they were able to head to dealers. Things seem to be straightening out for Lincoln and the MKZ's production now, as Automotive News is reporting that supply should be up to a "normal level" by the end of this month.

Lincoln scales back free maintenance

Wed, 05 Jun 2013

Complimentary scheduled maintenance programs have been great tools for luxury automakers to draw in new customers, but some are starting to scale their programs back considerably. According to Automotive News, Lincoln is joining Jaguar and Volvo on the list of automakers reducing the length of time it will be providing free maintenance to its customers.
Lincoln's four-year/50,000-mile maintenance program first kicked off as an incentive in 2010 and became permanent later that year, but starting with the 2014 model year, this will be cut to just two years and 24,000 miles. This could make short-term leases even more appealing for some consumers, but according to Automotive News, some Lincoln dealers are unhappy with the scaling back. The move admittedly comes at an odd time for Lincoln, with parent Ford seemingly working hard to increase consideration among luxury buyers as it looks to reverse the marque's long decline.

10 best new car deals in late September 2021

Wed, Sep 29 2021

New car sales were drastically affected in 2020 due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, but things started to show signs of recovery toward the end of the year before really coming on strong in the early months of 2021. Now there's an ongoing shortage of microchips causing a great deal of pricing fluctuation and a limited supply of certain vehicles. That doesn't mean there aren't still great deals on new cars, though. Using data provided by TrueCar, we’ve compiled a list of some of the best automotive deals for September 2021. WeÂ’ve noted the original MSRP, the average transaction price, and the total savings in both dollars and as a percentage of the original sticker price. Basically, weÂ’ve done all the hard work for you! So now, all you need to do is compare deals, go on a few test drives, and maybe drive away in a great car (and an even better bargain).
