1971 Lincoln Continental Mark 3 review from North America

"One cool car"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Nothing, really. The things that are wrong with it were there when I purchased the car. It has been seriously neglected and has lots of rust, but is complete. It needs to be completely restored.

General comments?

This Car is absolutely gorgeous. Its low slung, and was designed to cruise. You have to be one cool cat before you dare enter this car. It is black, with red leather interior, and has all the options. I even have the owners manual. I checked the owners manual against the car, and this baby has it all: Power everything, 8 track, auto headlight dimmer, (which still works) cruise control, automatic climate control, A/C, Sure-Track Brake system. This system is supposed to pump the rear brakes so they won't lock up. Not sure how it works, or if it is safe. does anyone know?

This car has 460 Cubic Inches of Detroit Muscle! The carb is huge, and loves the gas! it make 365 horses, although I am not sure whether that is in the crank or wheels.

I have a 65 International Short Bus (Motor home) and the Lincoln is almost as long!

I think that unless I play chicken with a train, I would survive a wreck. This car would hammer almost any new car into the ground.

Like my mom says, its like driving an armchair down the road. This is my favorite vehicle, and I will never part with it. I wonder if I could use this car as my casket when I die...
