1979 Lincoln Continental Town Car
Description
The 1979 Lincoln Continental Town Car is a classic late-1970s full-size luxury sedan finished in turquoise with a matching half-vinyl roof, capturing the extravagant styling and immense road presence of one of the final truly oversized American sedans. Exterior details include concealed headlights, opera windows, Town Car badging, dual mirrors, turbine-style wheels, and broad chrome trim throughout. Recent servicing included carburetor work, battery and voltage regulator replacement, fuel-sending-unit service, and other preparation items that help keep the car usable and appealing.
Its carbureted 400ci V8 is paired with a 3-Speed C6 Automatic transmission, delivering smooth, low-end torque and the relaxed cruising character these Lincolns are known for. Power steering and power-assisted front disc brakes help manage the car’s substantial size with surprising ease.
The expansive six-passenger interior is upholstered in turquoise velour and features power-adjustable Twin Comfort Lounge front seats, woodgrain trim, automatic climate control, cruise control, power windows, power locks, a factory AM/FM stereo with eight-track player, and CB radio equipment. This Town Car is a character-rich example of peak late-1970s American luxury, offering exceptional comfort, style, and presence.
