1978 Lincoln Mark V Cartier Package

Why This Vehicle is Special

The '70s had a lot of big luxury two-door cars, but none were nicer than the 1978 Lincoln Mark V Cartier Package like we have here for sale at Skyway Classics.

It has effortless power, incomparable ride quality, and a bigger-than-life persona as well as having a very nice and rich looking classic tan paint job and tan luxury interior, is powered by a 460 cubic inch V8 engine, backed by a C-6 automatic transmission, and loaded with options, that makes it a sure-fire collectable.

It only shows 19K miles on the speedometer and has Books and Records that go with the sale too.

Mechanical

Our Lincoln's smooth and refined 460 cubic inch V8 provides effortless performance in the Continental with unbridled horsepower and torque and is in excellent condition today and runs superbly.

It is painted in original Ford Blue engine enamel on the block, intake, valve covers, and heads as well as the factory air cleaner assembly and all sitting in a factory original but maintained engine compartment.

It also has Air Conditioning, Power Brakes, Power Steering, Front Disc Brakes, a highway-friendly rear end gear, nice-sounding exhaust system, and rides on whitewall tires and steel factory wheels with chrome factory wire wheel hubcaps.

The 460 cubic inch V8 engine is equipped with a four-barrel carburetor with the power being sent to the rear wheels via a C-6 three-speed automatic transmission.

Interior

The tan Cartier Edition leather interior looks luxurious and original, and with that in mind it's in remarkable condition. It has very plush leather bucket seats, carpets, door panels, and headliner, wood on the dash, and all of Lincoln's trademark square gauges are in good condition.

Options include factory A/C, cruise control, power windows, locks, and seats, and an AM/FM stereo radio. The back seat is as spacious as many full-sized cars today, and the giant trunk is outfitted with more plush carpeting and a full-sized spare with its own matching cover.

Instrumentation is housed in individual square recesses, and includes a speedometer, clock, fuel level indicator, oil pressure gauge, and coolant temperature gauge.

Exterior

If you want a great American luxury car with big block power and a great look, our tan Mark V looks sweet all over the long, wide, and stylish body painted in tan.

This car is very well preserved and has obviously been properly maintained all its life. The finish is glossy and rich, just the way you'd expect from a high-end luxury car.

Chrome is abundant on the traditional upright iconic Mark V grille, shiny bumpers, and the side trim, with the Continental's trademark spare tire hump, oval opera windows, and tan vinyl roof setting it off.

Conclusion

The 1978 Lincoln Mark V Cartier Package we have here at Skyway Classics is a low mileage example of what luxury and performance cars were all about back in the seventies.

With great collector status, these cars are iconic machines, the likes of which we'll never see again. For fans of luxury, few cars can touch the effortless ease of these bygone days of personnel luxury cars.
