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.

It’s a perfect dictionary description of the popular term “Land Yacht”, and this 15,513-mile, all-original car from Toms River, New Jersey Is now up for sale. Plus, it’s a special edition trim level.
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).

Ford’s Torino is a midsize car that was sold between 1968 and 1976. It also dabbled in the muscle car segment, with a prime example being this first-generation 1969 Ford Torino Cobra Jet. For buyers who wanted something tamer, there was a host of straight six or V8 powerplants, but the ultimate was the massive 428ci Cobra Jet V8. That’s what this Thousand Palms-based car offers, along with a Marti Report and just 21,000 miles on the clock. In fact, 1969 Cobras like this one are quite desirable due to their rarity since many Torino’s didn’t survive due to a variety of reasons. Perhaps they weren’t quite seen as preservation candidates way back then. Now, a car like this one isn’t a common occurrence, so if you wish to own this Cobra, contact us right now.
Chevy’s second-generation or C2 Corvette has got to be the one with the shortest production run! It was made between 1963 and 1967, and just under 118,000 units were produced during this time. However, the C2 brought us many Corvette features such as pop-up headlamps, only V8s under the hood, and the Sting Ray badge. That’s why getting your hands on a C2 is a smart idea, albeit not one of the easiest. Happily, we have this 1964 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray Convertible for sale from Newtown, Pennsylvania. The car has just 5,764 miles on it and looks fabulous!
Falcon is one of Ford’s best-known nameplates, because its been used for cars in North America, Australia and Argentina. Today’s 1964 Ford Falcon Sprint Convertible comes from the North American line-up and is a second-generation example. With a healthy 119,104 miles on the clock, this fine Ford hails from Chula Vista, California and is a nice, sunny drop-top too. It’s got a 289 paired with a four-speeder, and some fetching aftermarket wheels as well. And that’s before we get to its rather nautical color! In short, this is the perfect first classic for someone looking to try out the American cars of the Sixties, but if you need more convincing before calling us, read on.
