Description of 1978 Lincoln Continental - Cartier edition |
Lincoln Continental ~ Cartier ~ 1978
Gorgeous original example
This is a stunningly authentic, truly immaculate condition Lincoln Continental Mark V, Cartier edition with a genuine 40,000 miles. Cartier worked in cooperation with Lincoln to provide an exclusive "signature" motorcar for its time. The car is 100% original in all aspects, right down to the factory pin-striping and Cartier logo on the trunk lid. This car is a rare and wonderful find. Cartier Edition This is a genuine 2 owner car from Southern Arkansas that spent the last 10 years of its life in the Midwestin the hands of a collector so rarely used in the snow. As the first owner, it was "grand dad's" pride and joy until he passed away. Itis now showing a very modest 40,700 miles. Overall, this Cartier Mark V is an excellent example. Although not a "show car" by true definition, it certainly ranks very high in its current collectible condition. You could certainly drive her with pride as-is to your next Ford/Lincoln meet and attract a lot of attention. It ranks a clear 10-out-of-10 driver condition and would make a great low-cost investment for any 70s car collection. International bidders are welcome.

Bidding and/or winning does not mean you are expecting me to “hold†the car until you have the opportunity to inspect it. Any inspection contemplated should be undertaken BEFORE you bid or make an offer and I openly welcome any potential buyer to come and personally inspect the car. Once you bid ormake an offer, you are doing so to buy WITHOUT conditions.

PLEASE; IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO ABIDE BY THESE TERMS,MESSAGE ME BEFORE YOU BID AS, RESPECTFULLY, THERE CAN BE NO EXCEPTIONS. I am sorry if these terms seem harsh but there seem to be some very unrealistic buyers out there - fortunately, onlyfewof these people exist but those that do can make life difficult, so it appears EVERYTHING needs to spelled out. Very simply put, this is an old car being offered for sale. It is not new and is subject to the perils of age. Further, Lincolns are not without nuances, idiosyncrasies and they are renown for a host of design issues which can make them not inexpensive to maintain. So, please respect the terms and conditions when you bid. |
