Description
1975 Lincoln Continental Mk

Powered by a 460ci (7.5-litre) V8 engine allied to three-speed automatic transmission, this 2.3-ton land yacht could sail to 60mph in just 10.8 seconds with a top speed of 120mph.
It even runs on unleaded fuel – 14 miles to the gallon, if you were wondering...
Very much a neoclassical desig...
