Introduced in 1968 as an early 1969 model, the Lincoln Continental Mark III is regarded as the spiritual successor to the limited production, ultra-luxurious Continental Mark II. Utilizing the Thunderbird frame as the basis for the platform, the Mark III would carry close to 300 pounds more in body weight and appointments; to put its 460-cid, 365-hp V-8 engine to good use. The exterior features a Rolls-Royce styled grille, hidden headlamps and a spare tire bulge on the trunk reminisce of the Continental kit on its predecessor. The wire wheel covers have their own subtle styling cue that adds to the overall look.
Sumptuously equipped with power steering, brakes, windows and both front seats. Wood applique on the dashboard, full instrumentation and expertly fitted upholstery are commonplace in this model. The Lincoln Continental Mark III was the first in a long, successful run for the Lincoln Mark series.
