Comments from the seller

78 Lincoln Continental Mark V. Bill Blass limited edition in very good condition 32,200 miles(showing). 400 c.i. V8 motor, C6 3 spd auto. Currently on non transferable club rego Starts first kick and drives beautifully. It is a really fun and effortless car to drive. Blue and white exterior paint in good to very good condition. One deep scratch on rear fender. Interior upholstered in blue leather. Drivers seat needs re-upholstering. Some warning lights on dash are not working. A/C needs regassing. The reason for selling is that I live on a farm and I don't like driving such a great car on gravel roads. It needs to be shown and appreciated to its full extent in a town or city. It would make a fantastic Saturday night cruiser as it turns heads wherever it goes.
