1973 Lincoln Mark IV 460 CID from North America
Summary:
Loved it
Faults:
Front spindle bearing.
Transmission slippage.
General Comments:
This car was the top of the line as far as ride, comfort and styling for the era.
It was silver with a silver vinyl top and a burgundy corduroy interior. Interior seating was comparable to sitting on a sofa in your living room, and the acceleration for a 5000 lb. car was impressive.
I had a guest visiting from Austria, and I had to drive him to Stamford CT. When we got onto the New England Thruway - his comments were that the car was the size of a small house with the acceleration of a jetliner on takeoff.
At one time we were able to seat 8 adults comfortably in the car on a short trip.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

"Titanic of 70's"
- And it belongs in Davy Jones' locker along with the original Titanic!
