Hemmings Finds of the Day – Luxury Hat Trick Edition
Those who demand the absolute finest of late Seventies Lincoln-Mercury personal luxury in quantities are in luck. For less than the price of a single new Lincoln Town Car or Cadillac STS, you could own a triumvirate fleet of personal luxury cruisers in coupe and sedan trim. Because you need opera windows and acres of white leather, there is this 1979 Lincoln Town Car. A measure of sport touring meets genuine simulated wood, gray leather and more opera windows in this 1979 Lincoln Mark V. Luxury and nobility are included free of charge in the 1977 Mercury Grand Marquis, as is a cream-on-gold leather interior. Gold! All three cars are powered by the 400-cu.in. Ford V-8 and backed by luxomatic transmissions, so you could buy oil filters or similar parts in bulk for EZ fleet maintenance. Personal motoring luxury is but a briefcase full of cash and a few leisure suits away.
