1979 Lincoln Town Car

This Gold Lincoln is an all original with numbers matching motor and transmission. This car is fun to drive and floats along as it cruises down the road. Only having 56k actual miles, there is plenty of life left in the car. The overall condition of the paint, interior, motor, and drivability is suburb. Options on this Town Car include: Air conditioning, AM/FM radio, cruise control, power brakes, power steering, power locks, power windows, tilt wheel, power mirrors, upgraded cloth interior with Lincoln symbols and added style inserts, and even white wall tires.

For 1975-1979, the exterior of the Lincoln Continental underwent a major revision. Although the body below the beltline saw only minor change (the taillights redesigned in the style of the Mark IV), the roofline was completely restyled. To separate itself from the Mark IV, the two-door Continental/Town Coupe adopted a fully pillared roofline with a square opera window in the C-pillar. In place of the pillared hardtop shared with the Mercury Marquis and Ford LTD, the four-door Continental/Town Car adopted a wide B-pillar; to distinguish itself from the Cadillac Sixty Special Brougham; Town Cars were given the oval opera window introduced on the Mark IV.

Along with the styling upgrades, 1975 Lincolns received substantial upgrades to the braking system. Designed by Bendix,[57] the Lincoln Continental became one of the first American cars equipped with a 4-wheel disc brake system (as an option). To further improve the emissions performance of the 460 V8, the engine was fitted with catalytic converters, ending its compatibility with leaded regular gasoline. For 1979, the interior underwent further updating, as the Mercury-sourced dashboard received additional wood trim. The 460 V8 was deleted from the Lincoln/ Mark V model line entirely, leaving the 400 V8 as the sole engine. This Lincoln is perfect for a comfy daily driver or even a show car.
