I’m in the process of restoring mine, very happy the electrical work wasn’t destroyed. Very lucky, can’t wait to finally finish my 1975 Continental

…yet another winner dressed in Light Blue with Royal Blue prrmium velour … …surely appreciate your business approach of repairing imperfections as they arise…very few classics dealers do likewise…

[@christianbugatticg]

@@robbyrob8349 It was like this when I got it. It was a total rebuild, if you go to Bring a Trailer site I have a picture of the upgrades! good luck with yours!

Don’t mess with this Lincoln Mark 4 it will bite you if you try

[@christianbugatticg]

Yeah you gotta watch it!

[@Bugsy0333]

515 Horsepower ? Under that long hood was a 460-cid big-block V-8 sourced from Ford. The Mark IV delivered 224 net hp, down quite a bit from the 365 hp of the 1971 model.

[@christianbugatticg]

That is correct, but did you watch the video?? There are dyno sheets on this BUILT 460!! $11,000 worth of engine upgrades. This was built to be a sleeper. Car MOVES!! It's no stock Lincoln. Thanks!

Beautiful car. Engine sounds strong. Did you floor it ??? Camera didn’t show.

[@christianbugatticg]

Yes I did. Thanks!

Is it still for sale and how much is it?

No I am sorry it sold a couple months ago for 22k

[@bohemialite6371]

Not bad not bad but I would throw some silent dual exhaust on there and then let's call it a sleeper it needs some silent dual exhaust those just make it sound ugly. Beautiful car sound has to go of course whoever buys it will spend that money but other than that it is a beautiful car thanks for the ride Clyde. 😲

[@christianbugatticg]

Yes Sir!

[@dinoyoung3274]

Yes a more quiet exhaust system would be cool.

[@jeffferoce2633]

Sweet! What does she have for her exhaust setup? Great sound.

[@christianbugatticg]

Stock manifolds but a free flowing dual exhaust all the way back. Not sure of the name brand.

@@christianbugatticg They make a higher gear ratio for that Lincoln. I would recommend putting a 4.56 or 5.13 gear ratio with all of those mods. That will really make that Lincoln move.

HOT ROD LINCOLN

Oh yeah!

Question: The Ford ECM Modules in all their 70's products were crap. They burnt out all the time. I had to replace it 3 times in my Mark IV. What does this engine have for an ECM? Not stock I hope!

[@christianbugatticg]

This is a 75 it does not have an ECM

[@viciouspoodle5543]

@@christianbugatticg Not true.The 1975 had an Ignition Control Module. I remember it all too well as when it stops working the car totally dies and leaves you stranded. Maybe I am using the wrong term. It's about 4 inches x 4 inches by 2 inches thick. All metal except for the very bottom which has a type of particle board for electronics and a tight thick gluey seal all over it. I can't remember where it was mounted. A replacement is called New USA Ford Ignition Control Module has GREEN Chip 1975 Ford Lincoln Mercury

@@viciouspoodle5543 I mean you could be right but I have had no problem at all with this!! Thanks for the info!!!!

[@viciouspoodle5543]

@@christianbugatticg I would think with that $11,000 engine rebuild all the 1975 electronics would be gutted. I'd ask the prior owner.

[@christianbugatticg]

@@viciouspoodle5543 what issues will happen if these electronics are still in place. I still don't think it has what you are referring to.

very slow and heavy for 515 Horsepower, is look is not enough for it

Well you may be right but the factory 200 or so was worse! lol
