Hemmings Find of the Day – 1975 Lincoln Continental Mk IV

Published by Mike on July 8, 2015

In the mid-1970s, few domestic coupes did luxury as well as Lincoln’s Mark IV Continental. It’s easy enough to find used Mark IVs in our classifieds – after all, Ford built 278,599 examples between 1972 and 1976 – but what caught our eye about this 1975 Lincoln Continental Mk IV, for sale on Hemming.com, was the seller’s one-owner, all-original claim. From the pictures, the car appears to be in exceptional condition, and we don’t see anything that would have us questioning his 40,000-mile claim. The styling and ride may not be to everyone’s liking, but those shopping for a disco-era luxury coupe may want to give this Lincoln a second glance. From the seller’s description:
