For Ford, Lincoln or luxury car collectors who seek to make a grand statement, we have your automotive punctuation here at MotoeXotica Classic Cars with this 1979 Lincoln Continental Mark V Collector’s Series. In immaculate original condition, always garage kept with only 23,834 miles as stated by the previous owner and the current condition definitely supports that statement. The mechanical condition is also very nice as we just drove this car over 100 miles without fault, total land yacht!
With its sharp angles, creased flat bodysides, whitewall tires and Continental kit in the rear, you can almost see the spinning disco ball and hear the rhythms of Donna Summer, the Bee Gees and Chic. This particular example was built in February 1979 at Ford’s Wixom, Michigan Assembly Plant and it was shipped to the St. Louis, Missouri region and was originally sold by Morrow Bros. Ford in Greenfield, Illinois on March 20, 1979. The original owner traded in a 1978 Lincoln and a 1978 Ford pickup truck for this Mark V.
Dressed in stunning Midnight Blue Moondust Metallic (code 3Q), with a matching Valino grain half-vinyl roof (code YQ) the car’s original paint and trim are in near-excellent overall condition but the passenger side trim shows a couple of very minor blemishes. Only 3,900 Mark Vs were made in this color out of total production.
The windows are clear and intact and the car’s lights are all in one piece and haze-free. This car rolls on Michelin XLE whitewall radials, sized 235/75R15, surrounding factory turbine aluminum wheel covers with body-matching paint between the spokes for added flair. All of the car’s body panels are straight and solid. The trunk area includes a tool kit and umbrella that were standard features. The engine bay is all original and tidy and the bumpers’ condition matches the rest of the exterior.
Beneath that large hood is the factory original 400 CID Cleveland V-8 with a two-barrel carburetor mated to a three-speed Ford XPL C6 “Select-Shift” automatic transmission (code UEC77) and optional 2.75:1 rear end (code 2). Car comes with a long list of driver convenience features – Automatic Temperature Control, cruise control, power steering, tilt steering column, power four-wheel disc brakes with optional “Sure-Track” anti-skid brake system, power windows, power door locks, power sideview mirrors, six-way power driver’s seat, power radio antenna, power glass moonroof, power vent windows, heated sideview mirrors and a exterior temperature gauge built into the driver’s sideview mirror base.
Inside, the car is sumptuously appointed in Midnight Blue Kasmann II Luxury Cloth (code LB). The footwell courtesy lights come on when the driver’s door is opened. The split front and rear bench seats are in excellent order, complete with pull-down center armrests. The matching carpet looks great, as does the plush headliner and leather-wrapped, midnight blue instrument panel, with its ebony woodtone appliqué and brushed chrome inserts. The original two-spoke steering wheel is present with its matching ebony woodtone rim and hub inserts, and the inner door panels echo the interior’s overall theme. The mirror glass looks good and the center console is in very good order. Completing the interior are a Cartier clock and Ford’s then-top-of-the-line Electronic AM/FM Stereo Search Radio with Quadrasonic eight-track tape player. It has a floor-mounted foot-switch (inboard of the physically identical floor-mounted headlamp dimmer switch), to allow the driver to scan radio stations or advance tracks on the eight-track player without having to take their hands off the steering wheel. This car also has the optional Citizens Band (CB) radio, breaker, breaker, good buddy!
Documentation includes original window sticker, original Ford consumer information, original Ford limited warranty information, original invoice and other, assorted documents and items.

If you are the high bidder and unable to inspect said vehicle before auction close, you or an agent will have seven (7) days to inspect said vehicle after the close of auction. I encourage a physical inspection strongly to avoid any misunderstandings or representations.
All disputes arising out of or resulting from this sale shall be finally determined by binding arbitration in St. Louis, Missouri in accordance with the commercial rules of arbitration of the American Arbitration Association. The arbitration shall be carried out by one or more arbitrators in accordance with said rules. Any award shall be enforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction in the same manner as judgments.

Buyer and Seller hereby consent to the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts of Missouri to specifically enforce the agreement to arbitrate and to enter judgment of and enforce the award of the arbitrator.

We will not be responsible for buyer’s remorse or problems found to said vehicle once they have left our property. We are just being realistic; most of the cars we deal in are vintage and by their very nature will need TLC and some degree of attention sooner or later. These are not new cars and your expectation should not be of a perfect, new car. Once full payment has been received, Seller will email or fax a copy of clear title, Bill of Sale, Buyers Guide and additional DMV forms to the Buyer to sign and return via email or fax. The fully-executed forms must be returned to the Seller prior to the shipment of said vehicle.
