Year: 1971 Make: Lincoln Model: Continental Mark III Mileage: 79,224 VIN: 1Y89A844770 Drivetrain: RWD Engine: 460 4V V8 Transmission: Automatic Fuel: Gas Color: Blue Title: Clean, odometer reads exempt Registration: Expired This 1971 Lincoln Continental Mark III is a remarkably original survivor, offering a true time-capsule example of early 1970s American luxury. Showing 79,224 miles, this Lincoln has been garage-kept and seldom driven for decades, retaining its factory equipment and finishes throughout. Finished in its original deep blue with a contrasting black vinyl roof and matching blue interior, the car exemplifies the bold styling that defined the Mark III—complete with its upright Rolls-Royce-style grille, hidden headlamps, and the signature Continental decklid hump. Under the hood is the original 460 cubic inch 4-barrel V8 mated to an automatic transmission, offering smooth, effortless performance typical of the era. Inside, the cabin remains well preserved, featuring real wood trim, the iconic Cartier-branded dash clock, and a full suite of power accessories. The interior appears largely untouched, consistent with its long-term storage and limited use. Condition-wise, the car presents very well for its age, with expected cosmetic imperfections. Noted flaws include paint chipping on the rear passenger side, other minor scuffs and scrapes around the body (as photographed), and non-functioning power windows, believed to be due to a blown fuse. Additionally, the engine’s air intake pipe is currently severed and will need to be replaced. Still, the overall originality and completeness of this Mark III make it a rare find. With an unmistakable presence, this Lincoln offers an outstanding opportunity for the collector or enthusiast looking for a preserved, unrestored example of one of Ford’s most iconic luxury coupes. *This vehicle description is based on general observation and does not constitute a comprehensive inspection or guarantee of condition.
