The 1970 Lincoln Continental Mark III is a car that elegantly embodies the luxurious side of the American automotive industry, a period in which comfort and power went hand in hand. The Mark III was introduced in 1968 in response to the rising popularity of the Cadillac Eldorado, and Lincoln did not want to be left behind in the race to create the most prestigious personal luxury car. Designed under the supervision of Ford's vice president Lee Iacocca, this generation of Continental combined bold styling with an unparalleled level of luxury, quickly making the Mark III a favorite among the wealthy of the time.

This particular example, finished in the stunning Medium Aqua Metallic color with a matching aqua leather interior and black vinyl roof, exudes the sophistication of the 1970s. The car is equipped with the original 460 CID 4V V8 engine, which perfectly matches the character of this Lincoln. With only 49,000 miles on the odometer and a Select-Shift 3-speed transmission, this Mark III not only offers impressive power, but also a smooth and relaxed ride that is fully in line with its luxurious appearance.

The Lincoln Continental Mark III was praised for its extensive equipment and comfortable features, which is clearly reflected in this model. The car has factory-original automatic climate control, which was a particularly advanced feature at the time. The power windows and seats also contribute to the comfort and feeling of luxury that this car offers. The interior is further equipped with tinted glass and an AM/FM radio, along with a modern audio upgrade that provides an even better sound experience while driving.

This example comes with extensive documentation, including the original window sticker, instruction manual, dealer brochure, and a comprehensive set of maintenance documents and receipts. In addition, there are extra keys, as well as information from the Lincoln and Continental Owner's Club, demonstrating that this car has always been treated with care by true enthusiasts. Its history as a former California car adds to its charm, as the climate there is often favorable for the condition of classic vehicles. With its 9" rear axle with a 3.00 gear ratio, this Lincoln is built for relaxed highway cruising. The suspension is smooth, the steering precise, and the overall driving experience is all about comfort. The Mark III was a status symbol, a car for those who wanted to show they had made it, without being overly flashy. The delay wipers and automatic temperature control are just a few of the details that make everyday use of this classic particularly enjoyable.
