Description

The Lincoln Motor Company was originally founded in 1917 and since 1922 has been the luxury vehicle division of the American Ford Motor Company. The fifth generation Continental was built from 1970-79, it was available as a 2 or 4 door Hardtop or a 2 door Coupe. Also available was the Mark series of Continentals, they were a 2 door Coupe that shared underpinnings and much of the roofline with the Ford Thunderbird. The Mark series was squarer and more upright than the Thunderbird. Differing from the other Continentals, the Mark Series had a Rolls Royce style waterfall grille, hideaway headlights, vinyl roof, rear C pillar opera windows and the Continental spare tyre hump in the trunk lid. The Mk III was built from 1968-71. The Mk IV, built from 1972-76, got more rounded lines, but the headlight doors were squarer. Unique to 1972, was the front bumper dipped under the grille. 1973 saw a crash rated, now straight front bumper 1974, crash rated bumpers to the rear 1975, full length side body mouldings The 1977-79 Mk V got fender louvres and the radiator dropped down behind the bumper.
