Here we have the 1969 Lincoln Continental Mark III. At the time of its debut it was marketed by Lincoln as a personal luxury car. The Mark III served as the flagship for Ford Motor Company & was sold from 1969-1971. It was noted for its hidden headlights, rear spare-tire trunk bulge recalling the Mark II & its Rolls-Royce styled grille. It was developed to be a direct competitor to the Cadillac Eldorado which spanned a 3-decade long market rivalry. The seller reportedly acquired the vehicle 4 years ago when it had roughly 83,000 miles on the odometer. The seller has put roughly 500 miles per summer on it since its acquisition, totalling just over 2000 miles. The seller reports no accidents or claims to his knowledge. The motor & transmission are said to have been rebuilt roughly 5000 miles ago under previous ownership. The vehicle was also repainted in its current shade of burgundy under previous ownership, while the interior is in all original condition. The previous owner reportedly was a mechanic with their own garage & body shop. The seller states it is not a show car but a nice driver; it has its issues & flaws (mentioned below) but is still enjoyed for what it offers as a large classy coupe from the 60's as a cruiser. The car currently shows 85,310 miles / 137,293 km on the 5-digit odometer; TMU (Total Mileage Unknown). It is powered by the 460ci 7.5L V8 spinning the rear wheels through a 3-speed C6 automatic transmission. - 3-speed C6 automatic transmission - Deep burgundy over deep burgundy leather interior with East-Indian rosewood trim - Power windows - Power steering - Power brakes - Power locks - Vacuum-activated concealed headlamps - Optional leather twin comfort lounge Seats - 2-way power seats - Split bench electrically adjustable front seats - Automatic climate control - Full instrumentation - 2-spoke steering wheel - Vinyl roof - Front tires: Sailun Atrezzo Z4-AS - Rear tires: Continental CrossContact - Power: 365 HP - Curb Weight: 4866 lbs
