    To say beautiful is an understatement!!! It is incredible that a car from that era SURPASSES today's cars! And in this car, the color Black suits it Super Well!!! Especially, having a light-colored interior! Which is a natural Beige in this case...with which, there is a very marked contrast!!! This combination of factors make it a very Elegant, Fine, and Luxurious car, which without a doubt, stands out above the rest!!!... In addition, the lucky one who can buy it, will not only have a beautiful vehicle...will have a capital in constant growth! Because in a classic of these characteristics, each day that passes, it is worth more!!

    You know I am a Caddy Guy but this steely roof Lincoln grabbed my attention, It looks so classy! When I was a kid in Brooklyn, our neighbor's friend had a Lincoln like this. It was also kind of rare cause it had the factory vinyl roof but the front of the roof had a fixed glass panel sunroof. I'm not sure if that was a factory thing or not, but I never saw another one like it.

    The standard Continental interior is so beautiful in the 75-79 models. If ordered in leather, one would actually have a much nicer interior vs the Town Car option that used a blend of leather and vinyl in the seating surfaces. The standard bench seat has that full-width piece of leather and each seating surface is a large piece of leather with the biscuit-style section sewn on top of it instead of many small individual pieces of leather sewn together. The base seat with the leather option is actually the plushest, most deluxe of all the choices.

    The "only 9" mention in the Marti report may (I say MAY) not necessarily include the lack of a vinyl top. So many black Continentals from that period had leather interiors and nearly all of those would have been in black, gray or red. The beige cloth was a real rarity in the 70s for any Lincoln.

    • @christianbugatticg

    Pretty cool, especially since most of these were optioned as Town Car/Coupe. I always thought the standard interior looked plenty luxurious and, depending on the day, actually more inviting (and certainly more dignified) and the upmarket version. Though I don't think (not sure) you could get dual control seats with this trim - a drawback, especially if you've got some height disparity in the family. Certainly looks cleaner and even more dignified without the vinyl roof / opera windows. - and yet they optioned it up with power accessories, etc. My guess is that the original owners were people who could have bought the Town trim, but not to, specifically for the dignified look.

  • @kraleigh5467
    @kraleigh5467 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Wow -- what a beauty! I'm not sure I'd call it oddly optioned; appears to me the original owner stripped away the gaudy '70s stuff -- vinyl roof, opera windows, flashy interior and wheel covers -- and the result especially in this color combo is a car that clearly shows it heritage/lineage from the iconic '61-'69 Engel designs. Other commenter may be right -- with the low miles and appearance could be a funeral home car.

    Interesting car. This is the base Continental. Town Car added a 50/50 front seat called Twin Lounge Seats. I prefer cloth on the interior, and I definitely prefer the slick top. Such a beauty. The only downside to a 79 is that the 460 was no longer available. It was 400 CID only. The 351M and this 400 were the last of the "Cleveland" engine family. 79 was the last year for them. Starting in 80, all Ford V8 passenger cars moved to the Windsor engines in either 302 or 351 CID.

    There is only one problem with that beautiful car. It does not have a 460-4bbl. That lowers the value quite a bit.

    It LOOKS nice, but is it safe? Can I get anywhere with its gas mileage, and can it pass CAFE regulations? No.

    Too bad the 460 was discontinued for 1979. All you could get was the 400 2 bbl.

    That was built out of left over parts because 1979 it was terminated and Ford ran the assembly line till the parts were used up. So, yeah....very odd, especially that front bench seat. Terrible. However, the 1979 Lincolns were the pinnacle of American Luxury cars.

    Wow Billy did you say 66,000 you sold at 3600 me Lincoln Continental you know I think I told you a while back I have a 1976 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royale 10,000 original miles with the big block 455 last year for the 455 have all documentation bill of sale window sticker you name it can I have one 1 w o n best of show at least 10 times I mean in your opinion what does something like that sell for

    • @christianbugatticg
      @christianbugatticg  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes, that white car went for $66,000. What a nice surprise that was. So not an exact comparison, but my 14,000 mile 1978 Delta with the 350 V8 did about 14k or so. The 455 helps it. Could do upper teens, maybe $20k. Forget about the Lincoln doing $66k, that was an outlier for sure! Thanks!
