Description

One owner, bought new in 1978, driven for Church, Groceries and Shopping... then parked in a barn for the past 20 years. It's got 62,154 miles on it. Original 1978 Lincoln Continental Mark V 5 two door coupe in a cream tan inside and out, maroon pinstripe and details. 7.5L 460 big block V8, C6 automatic transmission, 9" rear end, disc brakes all around. Runs great, new brakes, mufflers, battery and fuel pump. All electronics are original and work great. Perfect simple restoration project if you're into redoing the "looks" of it... clean (or more likely replace) the carpet and upholstery, a few inches of minor body work and a new paint job / vinyl top and this car would be amazing. There was something jammed in the ignition- I'm guessing a key broke off when the kids were in there messing around- so I've purchased a new ignition and keys for it, you'll get that too.
I had a mechanic look it over recently, I was going to restore it myself, hence the brakes, mufflers, battery, etc.... then had a change of events so it's no longer a focus.
