1979 Lincoln Continental Mark V Collectors Series 1 of 13 Triple white leather
1979 Lincoln Continental collectors series
This is 1 of 13 made of the 1979 Continental Mark V Collectors Series Triple white with 52,020 miles. The mileage will probably go up slightly as it is shown and driven.
I have owned the car for 20 years and was bought from the original owner with around 45,000 miles. It was bought brand new at key lincoln mercury in New Kensington PA by Dr. Howard Bougher.
Always loved these mark v's but the Collectors series I always felt were Top Tier.
Even though there hasn't been a lot of mileage put on this car since owning it. I have kept up on all maintenance and whatever it needed. The 400 CI engine runs strong. The transmission shifts smoothly. The A/C runs Great and is running on R12 recharged a few years ago. And still cooling strong. And ready for summer.
New Carb installed in November. Not a cheap Chinese POS but a good autoline one from rock auto.
Dual band White wall radial tires with about 200 miles on them
New timing chain with about 2000 miles on it
Dual Exhaust about 1000 miles on them
3 Row Radiator “coolant changed every other year” since my ownership
New brakes pads and all 4 rotors has about 1000 miles on them
Updated to a CD radio with AUX jack but still have the original 8-track radio
