1979 Lincoln Continental 2-Door Town Coupe 400-2V Full size classic luxury car, in show condition. Finished in lustrous Cream Paint (6P) with a complementing Cream roof and Cream/Gold (JY) velour interior, this car’s handsome appearance is further enhanced by optional Medium Champagne pinstripes and forged aluminum wheels. The exterior finish has a mirror-like reflection, as does its abundance of chrome and bright-work. Similarly, the interior of this car is in virtually showroom condition, and the interior door panels, seating areas, dashboard, and headliner appear as new. The original tires are on this car, Michelin 225-15x and show no dry-rot as the car has been in NM approx. 35 years and in Indiana in a heated building. Documentation backs up the low miles. VIN: 9Y81S731739 Owned by ONE family since purchased brand new. NO rust. 22,720 miles. Showroom paint condition. Recently replaced master cylinder brakes and recently rebuilt carburetor. A/C works fine. Headliner is excellent and interior also spotless. Chrome is also very nice too. Wood grain interior trim, sending some extra 8 tracks along to the buyer also. Carpets were used in back to line the trunk with items they stowed. Love the meticulous care this car has shown. No paint issues anywhere, a really special find for the right collection. Never smoked in. Aside from being a presence on the road, what makes “a Lincoln a Lincoln” is an abundance of comfort and convenience features, and this car does not disappoint. Power features and optional equipment include the following: Power windowsPower vent windowsPower door locks6-way power seatsPower antennaAM/FM stereo with 8-track cassetteRemote trunk releaseSpeed controlAutomatic temperature controlTilt steering wheelCartier digital clockRear window defrosterIntegrated coach lamps All options work as they should, with the only flaw being a small separation in the driver door, where the vinyl trim separated under the door handle. In addition to having only 22,720 original miles, other factors contribute to the collectability of this Town Coupe—one of which being its rarity among other 1979 Continentals. Of the total production of 92,600 1979 Continentals, only 16,142 (17%) were two door models, and even fewer were Town Coupes, (approximately 1800) making this car quite rare. Another factor contributing its rarity is the owner, an Exxon oil professional’s wife ordered cloth interior, where the standard for such luxury cars were leather. She had a leather interior Cadillac, which was her daily driver and was not satisfied with leather trim.

Originally delivered to Kansas in early 1979, this car was taken to it’s Albuquerque home, where it remained for the next 30+ years. The owner’s nephew purchased it and brought it to Evansville, IN just a few years ago. You will also appreciate the original owner’s manual, warranty identification card, and sales brochure that will be provided with sale. If a rare ultra-low mileage luxury car is what you desire, this Town Coupe is a wonderful choice.
