1975 Lincoln Continental MARK IV. V8 460ci. Auto. 56,xxx original miles. It runs, drives, shifts, and sounds amazing. Everything works on this classic...Exterior/interior lights, power windows, power locks, windshield wipers, hot heat, hide away headlights, even the original 8 track!! It has a good ride/suspension and is fun to cruise around. It draws attention everywhere it rolls. This car has been owned since 1985 and was ALWAYS garage kept. I have provided a detailed description with over 100 detailed pictures along with video clips. I would want the same done for me if I was buying a vehicle through Ebay. I have the clean and clear title in my name, in hand, and ready for a new owner. Hopefully with the hours I have invested in taking pictures and making this auction I have answered all questions, but if not, feel free to call: 513-464-TEN TWENTY. But please read everything and view all of the pics/videos prior to calling.
This body panels are all original. The hood, both doors, and trunk open and close with that tight clicking sound you find on newer cars. All of the glass is crack free. The body is razor straight with its original white paint and red pin stripe. The frame, floorpans, and trunk have surface rust, but everything appears to be VERY solid underneath. The paint still has a shine, but there is some rust forming in a few places. Everything is extremely solid with exception of the drivers front fender well lip. You can see this in the pictures. This would be a perfect foundation for an easy restoration. It is sporting its original rims(in excellent condition) wrapped with new tires. The original spare wheel and jack is also intact in the trunk. Both bumpers are in good original condition, but there is one spot on the front bumper that has rust. The original white vinyl top is showing some wear, but still looks pretty good. This is all just my opinion......Pictures will say a thousand words below, but needless to say this is an extremely original and rare Mark IV that turns heads everywhere.
56,xxx original miles. (Title says 90,xxx actual, previous owner accidently wrote 90k and explained to me what happened.)
Original V8 460 with new stainless steel valve guides.
-NEW jasper automatic transmission.(Shifts into every gear PERFECTLY)
-New complete exhaust system.(No exhaust leaks and sounds great!)
-New white wall tires.
-New front shocks.
-New master cylinder, brakes, and calipers.
-New battery.
-This MARK IV does leak a little power steering fluid underneath it. I have not located where it is coming from, but there is no other leaks that I have knoteced.
The interior is original. It is white and red. The dash and all of the wood grain is in excellent condition. The door panels are in good condition for being original. The white/red front leather seat is in decent condition, but the drivers side is cracked up pretty bad. The white/red rear leather seat is in good condition. The carpet is decent. And the headliner is in good conditon. Still has original floormats. The power windows, locks, and tilt wheel works. The power seat also works!! The hideaway headlights work like new. This MARK IV also has its original 8 track stereo! The stereo sounds good throughout its factory speakers and the 8 track still works! All of the original gauges work great with exception of the fuel gauge. It does rarely work, but most of the time it sits on empty. I am thinking it has a bad connection, but not sure. The interior is amazing condition for being almost 4 decades old!
Overall, this is a an absolutely rare original find of a classic Lincoln Mark IV. It has been well taken care of throughout the years, but definitely shows signs of age. It can be driven the way it is or you can of course restore it while you cruise it. It is blast to cruise around and has a very comfortable suspension ride with a lot of power from the big V8 460. If you read the description and look at all pics below, then there is absolutely no disapointments with this vehicle. I really cannot nitpick much about it considering how old it is..however I tried in the description above, as I would want the same done for me.

Americans are used to paying for subscriptions — to magazines and cable television, for instance — but experience shows they'll cancel when the price of admission gets too high, or there are more tempting alternatives. Cord cutters ditched nearly 1.5 million pay-TV subscriptions in 2017, according to a survey by Leichtman Research Group. Cable TV started out cheap with basic offerings, and then got expensive. The auto industry's subscription offerings are new, but they're starting out costly, and not price-competitive with traditional leasing. The upside is that they take the hassle out of car ownership for busy people by letting the service take care of maintenance, insurance, licensing and taxes. And they give consumers choice, often allowing relatively painless switches between different cars in the automakers' lineup. Subscription services also point the way toward an ownership-free auto experience, and offer an easy transition to a potential world where ride- and car-sharing will be dominant. Subscriptions are here to stay, but consumers may take a while to "get" them. Lincoln's subscription service for lightly used 2015 to 2017 models, offered through the Ford-owned Canvas beginning this year, got off to a slow start. Many early subscribers canceled. Last month, Cadillac announced it would " temporarily pause" its $1,800-per-month Book subscription service for "adjustments" as of December 1. According to the Wall Street Journal, "Snags with the back-end technology used to support the service made some customer-service functions tedious and time-consuming, adding costs for the company." The challenge for automakers is to come up with a strategy that offers consumers a compelling, affordable option to regular ownership, and one that can also make a profit. I think they'll find that sweet spot, but they're not there yet. Jack Nerad, former executive editorial director at Kelley Blue Book and author of " The Complete Idiot's Guide to Buying or Leasing a Car," points out that "A lot of people expected that subscriptions would be very valuable for people who wanted inexpensive transportation, but the reality is quite the opposite. Subscriptions are offering more choices for the wealthy.
It goes without saying, but I'll say it anyway. The world is full of cars, and just about as many of them are bad as are good. It's pretty easy to pick which fall into each category after giving them a thorough walkaround and, more important, driving them. But every once in a while, an automobile straddles the line somehow between good and bad — it may be hideously overpriced and therefore a marketplace failure, it may be stupid quick in a straight line but handles like a drunken noodle, or it may have an interior that looks like it was made of a mess of injection-molded Legos. Heck, maybe all three. Yet there's something special about some bad cars that actually makes them likable. The idea for this list came to me while I was browsing classified ads for cars within a few hundred miles of my house. I ran across a few oddballs and shared them with the rest of the team in our online chat room. It turns out several of us have a few automotive guilty pleasures that we're willing to admit to. We'll call a few of 'em out here. Feel free to share some of your own in the comments below. Dodge Neon SRT4 and Caliber SRT4: The Neon was a passably good and plucky little city car when it debuted for the 1995 model year. The Caliber, which replaced the aging Neon and sought to replace its friendly marketing campaign with something more sinister, was panned from the very outset for its cheap interior furnishings, but at least offered some decent utility with its hatchback shape. What the two little front-wheel-drive Dodge models have in common are their rip-roarin' SRT variants, each powered by turbocharged 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines. Known for their propensity to light up their front tires under hard acceleration, the duo were legitimately quick and fun to drive with a fantastic turbo whoosh that called to mind the early days of turbo technology. — Consumer Editor Jeremy Korzeniewski Chevrolet HHR SS: Chevy's HHR SS came out early in my automotive journalism career, and I have fond memories of the press launch (and having dinner with Bob Lutz) that included plenty of tire-smoking hard launches and demonstrations of the manual transmission's no-lift shift feature. The 260-horsepower turbocharged four-cylinder was and still is a spunky little engine that makes the retro-inspired HHR a fun little hot rod that works quite well as a fun little daily driver.
The last vestiges of the controversial split Lincoln grille are slowly being removed as the company revamps its lineup. It started with the MKZ and Continental, with the most recent rhinoplasty recipient being the Navigator. Now, based on spy shots, it looks like the MKC crossover will be the fourth to get the new corporate grille. Under the heavy vinyl coverings, we can clearly see the proud Continental-inspired grille. We can also see that it will feature the same chrome mesh with Lincoln badge-shaped openings found on other cars with the grille design. We can also assume that the headlights will receive a substantial refresh, but the lower bumper doesn't look particularly different. The rest of this prototype MKC looks the same as the existing model. The back is covered, which indicates that the taillights may be updated. We wouldn't expect a radically different look, since the MKC already has a full-width taillight treatment. We also noticed that the wheels appear to be inspired by the cool turbine wheels of the Navigator. Whatever the other changes are, we'll probably see them soon. This is clearly just a refresh, and so there's a good chance we'll see the production model revealed by the end of the year, or early next year at the latest. Related Video:
