Following the 50s and land yachts, downsizing was in order. While manufacturers focused their effort on performance and moving towards making muscle cars, Lincoln stuck to its guns and provided the automotive world with the epitome of luxury cruising. However, the 70s and its gas crisis saw Lincoln take a different path and introduce its first midsize luxury car, the "Versailles." Named after a picturesque french palace, the Lincoln Versailles stayed true to its roots and provided its occupants a low-down, luxury drive feel. Present today is a lovely example of Lincoln's foray into the midsize luxury car market and comes in the form of this stunning 1980 Lincoln Versailles.
While Lincoln flies underneath the blue oval banner driving one proves to be an experience, an experience filled with life in the slow lane and treasuring every mile traveled. Keep this in mind and look at this 1980 Lincoln Versailles with its two-tone silver and black exterior; you know heads will turn for a glance while you cruise by. The body is in great shape, with the car's chrome components present and adding to the vehicle's appeal. Matching all the chrome and staying true to its originality is the car's factory wheels which are wrapped with white wall tires serving as this vehicle's shoes. With four doors and more space for your passengers, the gray leather interior of this 1980 Lincoln Versailles makes you want to step out and explore. Look around, and you are treated to a fine mix of wood, leather trim, and the car's original trim, providing that luxury feel.
While the Versailles was a downsized and midsize luxury offering, it was ultimately a car that sports the Lincoln badge, the size and luxury come at a price, which is added weight, but the 302ci (4.9L) small-block V8 powering this 1980 Lincoln Versailles provides performance to ensure you experience that smooth Lincoln drive feel with no exceptions. The small block V8 is also reputed to be a reliable power unit that offers trouble-free and practical classic car ownership thanks to spare part availability. Power is sent to the car's rear wheels through an automatic transmission.

Lincoln’s widely successful Continental nameplate continued until 2020 as a full-size luxury car or midsize luxury car, depending on the era. Ten generations were made, with the first generation entering the market in 1940. If you want a really iconic Continental, the fourth generation is the way to go because this series ran between 1961 and 1969. This was probably the best time to experience quintessential American Luxury Land Yacht motoring, and we’ve got a 1966 Lincoln Continental Convertible to help you relive those glorious years of excess. This 80,000-mile machine has seen some refurbishment, too, helping keep it in great order.
The late 40s saw a resurgence in the American luxury car market that had almost died completely thanks to more than a decade of economic depression and World War. The post-war boom brought a wave of Cadillacs, Packards, and Lincolns re-entering the market. For the first few years after the war, most cars (especially the more expensive ones like the Lincoln Continentals) were largely similar to the pre-war models. This was due to civilian automobile production being paused after Pearl Harbor (and America’s subsequent direct involvement in WWII). In this case, the first-generation Continental had only been in production for a couple of years before being put on hold. They were offered only in 2-door form, as either a coupe or a convertible. Several changes were made when production was resumed in 1946, the most prominent being the “Zephyr” name being removed from Lincoln-Zephyr. This production run would last only a few years as well, ending in 1948. The 1949 Continental would be a fancier Mercury and not quite the expensive and exclusive personal-luxury vehicle that its predecessor was.
Duality is an important factor when purchasing your next machine, blistering performance on track plus smiles per gallon on a spirited drive is the ideal sweet spot for many. Present today is just that and takes shape with this 1968 Chevrolet Camaro.
The Volkswagen Beetle was truly the people’s car and its production numbers was a clear sign of that. With massive production numbers, standing out in the world of peace, love and happiness was truly a task. Present today is a Volkswagen Beetle that is out of the ordinary and takes shape with this lovely 1978 Volkswagen Super Beetle Champagne edition. With just 1,100 examples produced and just a mere 36,800 miles on its clock, this low mileage limited edition German classic has all the charm a Volkswagen Beetle brings to your life and then some more.
Owning an Alfa Romeo is an act of lust, self-sacrifice and pure aural pleasure. That’s because these Italian machines are full of character, quirky, and need the appropriate maintenance to perform at their best. Neglect an Alfa Romeo and everyone will be sad (car included). However, if you look after it the way it’s meant to be, and drive it with gusto, you’ll find it quickly becoming your happy place, your solitude space. Furthermore, if you select a car like this New York-based 1997 Alfa Romeo Spider 2.0 TS that’s done just 37,000 miles, you’ll also be in charge of a definitive future classic, and a potentially appreciating asset.
