Price My Classic

Conceived to commemorate the 75th Anniversary of Ford Motor Company, the Diamond Jubilee Mark V was an $8,000 upgrade over the standard Continental Mark V. Practically every conceivable factory option was fitted in this limited-edition motorcar, and it's finished in Jubilee Gold: one of only 2,557 produced. This 78 Continental Mark V 'Diamond Jubilee' Edition is a great survivor quality car with all features reported to be in working order except for the AC needing a recharge. Standard equipment includes color keyed moldings, vertical grill bars, bumper guards, landau top, Turbine wheels, hood ornament, and padded vinyl deck lid. Inside was more of the same with Diamond Jubilee call outs and badges in the dash and opera windows, plus a matching umbrella in the armrest. Other Jubilee distinctions included padded leather in high wear areas of the interior, as well as ebony wood inserts on the instrument panel, door trim panels, front seat backs, and console. The backs of the front seats also featured assist straps and map pockets. The carpeting on the floor was a sumptuous 36 oz. Tiffany cut pile. Also, a first for Lincoln was the now ubiquitous digital 'miles to empty gauge with an on-board solid-state computer...

For a longtime standing, the Lincoln name brand has upheld a solid reputation of setting the standard for what it means to be a true luxury vehicle. This fourth-generation Mark series was produced from 1977-1979. Unique features included hidden headlights, radiator-style grille and a Continental spare tire decklid. Luxury was first and foremost with plush interior seating and carpet. This 1978 Lincoln Continental Mark IV is a great example of Lincoln opulence in the 1970s. A car that outshines your living room in elegance and drives like you are on a cloud of air. Painted in tuxedo black with a matching quarter vinyl roof. The burgundy interior screams luxury with 50/50 split pillowed leather seating and handsome...

The Lincoln Continental is legendary for more reasons than one. Comfort, luxury, style, and much much more. Recently the generally beloved and occasionally disdained Jeremy Clarkson drove a Mark V Lincoln on the latest episode of The Grand Tour: Lochdown. If you have ever questioned the integrity of Ford motor company engineering. take a gander at the episode and watch Clarkson put the Mark V platform through its paces!

This Mark V is wearing a fantastically tasteful color combination with a luxe cream over cream scheme. The interior is lavish with a Cartier clock dominates half of the instrument cluster with a matching speedometer. The dash color is a fantastic burlwood design with some complementary brightwork. This car feels like it wears a tuxedo. The odometer reads just over 6,000 miles which we suspect to be 106,000 miles. Despite the mileage the undercarriage is in VERY good shape. We have seen lower mileage vehicles not present this well.

The powerplant is a massive 460 V8. The 3-speed...
