Today, Lincoln is Ford's luxury nameplate for luxury SUVs. This was not the case 106 years ago when it was founded as the Lincoln Motor Company by Henry Leland, the founder of Cadillac, in 1917. Their first foray was building Liberty aviation engines for the government. It was after the war that they built the Model L in 1920. And soon after, it was acquired by Ford in 1921. The first Lincoln Continental to roll off the assembly was in 1940, which continued for ten generations until its discontinuation in 2020. From 1970 to 1979, the fifth-generation Lincoln Continental was built and sold across the United States and certain parts of the world. Today's listing is a Lincoln from that generation, to be specific a 1977 Lincoln Continental with a pleasantly surprising 53,200 miles on the clock.
Keeping you at ease is the fact that it's reported that this 1977 Lincoln Continental is numbers matching. The seller also mentions that 1977 Continentals with sunroof have been produced in 52 units in this configuration. The Lincoln Continentals were a status symbol, as they were Ford's full-sized luxury model competing against Cadillac offerings. The car is finished in a deep maroon with a hefty amount of chrome throughout the exterior. This version of the Continental features a hidden headlight design that swivels out when switched on. Between the lights can be seen a massive and ornate chrome grille with the Lincoln hood ornament on top. The front bumper is finished in chrome, matching the grille. A thin chrome line starts from the front bumper and is interrupted by the rear wheel arch, and continues onto the rear. The rear features a toned-down approach with a thin chrome rear bumper and full-length taillight setup. The interior features the same maroon color along with a contrasting white and is reportedly all original. More chrome is visible throughout the interior while a complementing maroon and faux-wood steering wheel takes center stage.
Classic luxury vehicles set themselves apart with their features, design, and, more importantly, solid powertrains. This 1977 Lincoln Continental is powered by a 6.6L Cleveland V8 mated with a 3-speed automatic transmission. The seller reports new shocks are in place along with new hoses, new belts, and a recent full-service.
Lincoln, the luxury marque of Ford is best-known for their Continental. Produced sporadically between 1939 and 2020, the Continental was their full-size luxury offering.

If you're looking for a literal landyacht, then this could be it. The Lincoln Continental Mark V represented the height of American personal luxury in the late 1970s, combining immense size, distinctive styling, and a wealth of comfort features. This 1977 example, offered from Nevada, Missouri, is powered by a 400ci V8 paired to a C6 3-speed automatic transmission. Showing just 37,243 miles, it presents as a well-preserved classic, capturing the spirit of 1970s luxury motoring.
There was a time not too many years ago when the name of a Lincoln product told you what purpose it was built for and how and where you should use it. The Town Car nameplate is the best example of this. Before the stretch limo versions of the 2000s, this name was attached to Lincoln’s Continental line in the 1970s. Lincoln released the fifth generation Continental in 1970 and it would stay in production until 1970 with some year-by-year changes and a major facelift in 1975 (to differentiate itself from the new Mercury Grand Marquis that it shared many components with).

Chevy’s answer to Ford’s pony car challenge, the Camaro came in 1967 and brought a sister along for the ride, in the shape of the Pontiac Firebird. This was a smart move by General Motors as it allowed them to sell two suitably varied models in the same segment but with much of the same underpinnings, engines and other components. The Firebird was axed in 2002 but the Camaro continued to be made until 2024. That makes it the second longest-running pony car in history.

Chevy’s second-generation Corvette was made from 1963 to 1967, but across that relatively short lifcycle, over 117,000 examples found homes. This highlights how popular the Corvette was back then, much like it is now. The second generation or C2 brought about many features that we know from later ‘Vettes, such as pop-up headlamps, the boat-tailed styling, and the exclusive use of V8s for the Corvette – the C1 did offer a six cylinder early in its lifecycle but that wasn’t deemed worthy for a top-tier sports car. Today, we’ve got a 1967 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe for sale from Shohola, Pennsylvania, and let us tell you it’s a catch.

Chevy’s third-generation Corvette of 1968 to 1982 was the best-seller in the entire range, in terms of generational numbers. Thanks to its super-long production run, over 542,000 were made, despite it carrying on through the dreaded Malaise Era. During these dark times for automotive enthusiasts, Chevy worked hard to maintain the Corvette as one of the fastest American cars around – of course that was a subjective term, but impressive, nonetheless. Hence, a C3 Corvette is a robust way to enter the world of classic American cars. Want to know more? We’ve got a 1977 Chevrolet Corvette for sale from Littleton, Colorado right here.
