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).

In 1953, Chevrolet introduced a car that would shake up the American sports car market. Yes, the Corvette was born that year. With breathtaking styling by Harley Earl, this iconic sports car initially came with a six-cylinder engine that was definitely unsuitable for such an amazing piece of automotive art and mechanical excellence. So, Chevy rectified the mistake by 1955 with the introduction of the Small-Block V8. Initially displacing 265ci, it grew to a 327ci unit by 1962. That’s what we have in this 1957 Chevrolet Corvette, with its 327ci V8 that packs dual quad carburetors and a reported output of 400 horseower. This Washington-based car also comes with its original interior, as well as original Corvette wheels. If you want a special classic Corvette that’s definitely going to be valuable for years to come, talk to us right now.

This fine specimen from 1974 Chevrolet Corvette is a worthy candidate if you’re interested. Hailing from Aurora, Colorado, it’s got just 3,000 miles on its rebuilt 350ci engine and automatic gearbox. Plus, there’s a whole list of new and replaced parts that have been installed, bringing this Corvette to a whole new level in terms of condition. You definitely won’t regret getting your hands on this car!
