For sale is my 1976 Lincoln Mark IV Emillo Pucci Designer Series. I bought this Lincoln from the original owner who puchased his Mark IV Lincoln in November of 1976. This Lincoln Started it's life in Norh Carolina and then the owner moved to Phoenix, Arizona where the Lincoln has been ever sense. The previous owner supplied me with all the maintenance and restoration records going back to 1994. I too was concerned about the high mileage until I went through the records and looked at the condition of the car. For a 38 year old Lincoln it is in very good condition. I have done the following repair to ensure the Lincoln was road worthy and safe.

I have four new tires installed

Changed the motor oil

Installed new rear brakes inculding one new rotor and caliper assembely.

rebuilt steering colume and installed a nice clean steering wheel

Replaced drivers door panel

This Lincoln Mark IV drives very well. Starts after two pumps of the gas pedal when cold, and auto choke works well. The engine runs smooth and cool down the Arizona road with no noise or  issues. The Lincoln tracks well with no directional pulls or correction needed.  The brakes stop this large vehicle well with out noise or pulling sensation. The transmission shifts through all gears smoothly with no hessitaion.  The A/C is complete and converted to R134 but will require a recharge(blows Cool but not cold). All the power windows, sunroof, and seats work.  Let review the condition of my Mark IV from a 1 to 10 scale 1 being the worst.

Exterior Condition (8) The Lincoln was repainted in 2007 and looks as good in person as does the photos. The car is a 5 footer and small imperfections can be found such as crack in the paint by the vinyl roof. a small bubble about the size of a pea on the left front fender. no body damage found or major rust issues. Vinyl top in excellent condition as well as the plastic bumper fillers.  All trim is in place and undamaged but could use some trim clips in areas.

Engine and transmission (8) Engine and transmission operate well under idle and load. Blue smoke can be seen on initial start up wich is indicitive of valve guide seals. Have receipts showing R&R of engine and transmission in 2005. All oem equipment still in place and functional.

Suspension and Brakes(9) Rear brakes new and front brakes have 40% life. I have front end receipts showing ball joints and tie rods, alignment being done. Shocks are fair and optional to be done at this time.

Interior(7) A/C needes a recharge is the main reason I gave this Lincoln a 7. Seats are excellent, but have small tear in drivers seat about an inch long. Could be stitched up due to location of the seam. headliner is starting to sag above the passenger. As stated I replaced the drivers door panel due to sun damage and the steering wheel. The dash has cracks but is covered by a dash mat. The original stereo has been replace by an new AM/FM/Cassette and sounds good.

This brings the over all condition of this vehicle to an (8) Nada Classic Car guide gives this vehicle a low value of $5,850.00 and a high around $11,000.00 I have tried to descibe this vehicle as detailed as possible so not to give anyone a surprise. This is a beautiful  Lincoln and will bring lots of attention at car shows.
