Love it. When my parents here in Wichita got a new 1981 Lincoln Town Car Signature Series I was so impressed until my friend in Vickridge showed up in a new 1981 Continental Mark 6 in black with the moon roof, CB, 8-track, and so comfy. I loved and still love those cars today. Thanks Bob.

At the time, Lincoln wiped the floor with Cadillac in quality. The Cadillac Brougham looked like a drunk person tried to put it together while blindfolded. The Lincolns were built on a totally different level. Screw Cadillac, give me a '89 TC with the fake convertible top, wire wheels and black upper/chrome lower body. Even mob boss Paul Castellano loved that car and was riding in one when he was assassinated!

The fact that this beautiful Mark VI doesn't include the digital dash display is a deal breaker for me. I fell in love with the innovative feature Ford introduced in 1980 as an option on the Continental Mark VI, Continental Town Car and the Thunderbird Town Landau. Back in the day my cousin had both an 80 T-Bird followed by an 80 Town Car a few years later both equipped with the digital dash option and was just an amazing feature for me as a teenage American Car admirer. But unfortunately Ford kinda limited certain options on the Mark VI due to it being the final year for the Mark VI making way for the Mark VII for 84. A Beautiful classic but I couldn't see myself purchasing this particular model due to the lack of optional equipment offered whereby a buyer in 1983 would have to look elsewhere or order the digital option for this vehicle for more money added onto the MSRP.

Loved these cars, and Lincolns in general, as a kid...my dad was a Cadillac guy and had a new one every 3 years...but to me, Lincolns of the '80's & early 90's were lovely and way more appealing. I've always wondered though why Ford/Lincoln didn't install some sort of trim piece around the exposed headlights when the covers were open...as designed, the units look unfinished and inelegant.

This was one of those odd unicorns that I never understood. Why was it even built? The Lincoln Town Car looks much more prestigious especially with the unusual black on chrome lower body and fake convertible top. Even mob boss Paul Castellano wanted that version of the TC. He and associate Tommy Bilotti were in a TC when they were assassinated in front of a restaurant in NY. This Mark VI was an odd duck. I never saw them in any color but powder blue and even stranger, a vast majority of them had the secondary headlights. These were single round lights on top of the swivel headlight covers. An owner told me they were useless. They were never bright enough to be used anywhere even in a parking garage so he always switched on the regular headlights. Also, the shark gill vents are fake. They do not provide cooling of any type for the engine. I did love the rear hump even though it was fake and couldn't hold anything. The only thing I never understood was why? What did the Mark VI have that the TC didn't? I would have picked the TC over the Mark VI any day because it just looked more prestigious. I loved the TCs in black on chrome with the canvas top and very intricate wire wheels.

Ah, to be a used car salesman is to be an eternal optimist. Granted this car is very nice, but just shy of what it would take to place well in the LCOC. A little money and time on the details would get you a primary 1st. As a point of clarification, this was NOT the highest level of Lincoln for 1983. You'd need it to be the Signature Series of this car for that statement to be true.
