1970 Lincoln Mark III 37,500 Original miles, purchased from the original owner!
This is not a show car!! This is a really nice cruiser/driver!!
Car runs and drives great, cruises down the highway at 80 mph like a new car!
Mostly original paint, the sides appear to have been painted but it is a good job and matches the rest of the car very well. No evidence of rust is visible. Could use a good buff/wax job. All the glass is in excellent condition and the all of the power windows work. The chrome is in nice driver condition with some pitting here and there. Overall pepper pitting on most everything. The vinyl top is in good condition with a few small "crispy" areas around the back window. The interior is all original leather, not ripped or worn but the seats are dry and hard. Could benefit from a good application of leather conditioner. The dash and gauges are in beautiful condition and are in good working order The 460 CID engine runs great with no issues. Factory rated 360 HP It has plenty of power and runs smooth with no noises. Its 10:50 to 1 compression so it needs good 93 octane gas It has had new plugs, wires, cap, rotor, points, starter, alternator, belts and hoses and NEW RH exhaust manifold recently installed. All of the power accessories work, including the original AM FM radio. NEEDS: Tires are old, dry rotted and should be replaced if the car is driven far.
The vacuum headlights sag when the car is not running but close as soon as it is started The turn signal stalk is loose and the turn signal sometimes will randomly come on
This will make someone a nice cruiser for this summer!! Drive it home!!
Please ask any and all questions. Send e bay messages or call Marvin at 815 521 9566
The car is located about 45 mins South of Chicago.
Thank you for looking!!! |

Lincoln scales back free maintenance
Wed, 05 Jun 2013Complimentary scheduled maintenance programs have been great tools for luxury automakers to draw in new customers, but some are starting to scale their programs back considerably. According to Automotive News, Lincoln is joining Jaguar and Volvo on the list of automakers reducing the length of time it will be providing free maintenance to its customers.
Lincoln's four-year/50,000-mile maintenance program first kicked off as an incentive in 2010 and became permanent later that year, but starting with the 2014 model year, this will be cut to just two years and 24,000 miles. This could make short-term leases even more appealing for some consumers, but according to Automotive News, some Lincoln dealers are unhappy with the scaling back. The move admittedly comes at an odd time for Lincoln, with parent Ford seemingly working hard to increase consideration among luxury buyers as it looks to reverse the marque's long decline.
Ford recalling select Taurus, Explorer and Lincoln MKS models over fuel tanks
Sun, 31 Mar 2013Ford is recalling certain 2012 Taurus, 2013 Explorer and 2012 Lincoln MKS models over fuel tank concerns. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, vehicles built between July 19, 2011 and March 15, 2012 may have been built with fuel tanks that have a "marginally sealed seam" on the side. Those seams may not provide the strength necessary to protect the tank from rupture during a collision. They may also leak. The recall covers a total of 3,037 vehicles. NHTSA says that leaked fuel, in the presence of an ignition source, could easily cause a fire.
Dealers will inspect the tanks and replace them as need be free of charge. Owners can expect to be notified once the campaign begins on or around April 22, 2013. You can read the full NHTSA recall notice below for more information.
Consumer Reports says these are the worst new cars of 2014
Thu, 27 Feb 2014Consumer Reports has announced its annual list of worst vehicles, a cringe-inducing contrast to its list of top vehicles. Ignominiously leading the way in 2014 is Chrysler, which has a staggering seven models listed.
Jeep nearly sweeps the small SUV segment by itself, with its Compass, Patriot and 2.4-liter version of the new Cherokee, while the only midsize sedans listed by CR were the Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger. The new Dodge Dart and the Dodge Journey round out CR's condemnation of Chrysler.
Ford is taking heat as well, with the Taurus, Edge and their counterparts from Lincoln all listed as the worst vehicles in their respective segments. Toyota doesn't fare much better, with its Lexus IS, Scion iQ and tC also making the list.
