The fifth generation Continental by Lincoln was introduced in 1970 and would run the decade until 1979. Another little known fact is that the 1977-1979 Lincoln Continentals are the longest automobiles ever produced by Ford Motor Co. with a little help with the addition of the 5MPH bumpers that were now standard. It was a body on Frame construction....A lot of Frame! There would be several revisions throughout the years, but the biggest came in 1975 after being on the market already for five years, most notably a huge brake upgrade. This car would share its platform with its Ford and Mercury cousins on a couple models. This particular absolute cream puff is a 100% Survivor, never leaving a one county radius. It has traveled less than 40,000 miles from new and still looks fantastic. No paint work, no interior work, no engine work......stock, 100%. This 460 comes to life with the flick the key, idles easy, shifts and brakes nicely and goes down the road like a dream or a cloud or a couch....whatever it is, its smooth. This is a ton of car for the money and would make someone a great cruiser or parade vehicle.
