1977 Lincoln Continental
The Lincoln Continental was the brand's flagship for many years, and the 5th generation brought a new angular design language to Lincoln that lasted until the end of the 80s. This example is a 1977 model that received a facelift in 1975 with an even more angular design language and some changes to, among other things, the powertrain. It was also one of the last years that the trusty 460ci engine was offered before it was only possible to order the model with the smaller, but more fuel-efficient 400 engine.
The car came to Sweden in 2022 from Norway where it spent a large part of its life and was well cared for by its previous owners. The model was delivered with a lot of equipment as standard with relatively few options, this example has, among other things,
- Electric lifts all around
- Electrically controlled seats, locks and tailgate
- Blinds for headlights/Vinyl roof
- 460ci / 7.5L V8 with 3-speed automatic transmission
- Cruise control
- Comfort seats with green leather
- Holley Sniper injection system
