    As a kid I really liked these cars when they were new. As an adult I LOVE them!

    I remember this car at a neighbors house and fell in love with it. It’s my favorite Lincoln from 77-79

    It needs the white wall tyres to really set it off😊

    Crystal Apricot Moondust color? Wife, when she was single, had 79 Continental sedan same color, cordovan half vinyl top and cordovan cloth interior. Big boat but gorgeous combination.

      If it's a 15 inch wheel, uniroyal makes a tiger paw white wall I put on my previous town car
      If it's a 16 inch, continental makes a white wall I just put on my newer town car
      White walls change the entire appearance of the car....
      It's a must have in my opinion

      Yes! I totally agree. I have purchased some, I just haven’t installed them yet hopefully within the next week or two.

    Very nice car but PLEASE put whitewalls on it. These cars need them to light proper.

    • @ClassicCarEnthusiast

      Yes, I could not agree more. I have bought some. I just haven’t gotten them installed yet. I did remove the aftermarket tachometer and steering wheel cover

      Thanks! And Yeah, this Crystal apricot is kind of like the color of a new penny in the sunlight.

    Such an amazing car that you have there and my parent's had one to back in the day and I wish that they would of kept it but instead the motor went dead and then it went to the junk yard.

    JUST A BEAUTIFUL COLOR, NOT LIKE THE 4 BORING COLORS NOW, YOURS JUST NEEDS 1 MORE THINKG W H I T E W A L L S,
    NO ONE BOUGHT LINCOLNS IN THOSE YRS WITH BLACKWALLS, IT WOULD MAKE IT LOOK SO MUCH BETTER.

    Looks great!! My only issue with the Mk5? The wheel well to tire ratio. Needs wider rims.

  • @paulparoma

    Fantastic color, fantastic car, excellent paint job, but the ugly aftermarket tach is an eyesore.

    • @ClassicCarEnthusiast
      @ClassicCarEnthusiast  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thank you very much and Yes, I agree about the tachometer and I could not figure out why someone had added it, but when I was driving it the first time the shifts in the transmission were almost imperceptible and I was thinking maybe that’s why the person had added it because you could see the RPM drop down with each shift. I will be removing it and putting in a different car.

      @@ClassicCarEnthusiast I see. Well, removing it is not a bad idea. There is a reason luxury cars never had tachometers.:)
