For sale in our Chicago showroom is this fantastically plush 1978 Lincoln Continental. When new, these vehicles had a sticker price of right around $22,000, which made it the most expensive American-made vehicle of that year. Taking inflation into effect, this Lincoln would cost almost $84,000 in US currency today. Luckily, we aren’t crazy enough to ask for that much. With just a hair over 20,000 original miles on the odometer, as well as the original numbers matching engine and transmission, this cream puff asphalt ark is almost brand new. The 7.5 liter V8 engine purrs smoothly at idle and hums quietly down the highway, comfortable at any speed.

The smooth Crystal Apricot paint breaks way to the ruby red plush interior inviting you to sit for hours as you travel to wherever the road takes you. The underside is just as clean as the top showing minimal signs of any use at all. The glass is crystal clean and all the windows roll up and down without hesitation. Any imperfections in the road are simply ignored by the smooth suspension. This classy Continental is a throwback to a time when American vehicles were at the top of the luxury game, and a Lincoln was a status symbol to be reckoned with.

This Continental is a wonderful representation of what it meant to be a high-roller in the late 70’s and is as smooth as they come. Options include: Air-Conditioning, Alloy Wheels, AM/FM radio, Cloth Interior, Cruise Control, Power Brakes, Power Door Locks, Power Seats, Power Steering, Power Windows, Seat Belts, Tilt Steering Wheel, White Walls, and a Numbers Matching Drivetrain.
