The Diamond Anniversary Edition of the Lincoln Continental Mark V celebrated Ford Motor Company’s 75th birthday in high style and superb luxury. It could be had in only two special Clearcoat colors, Diamond Blue and Jubilee Gold, with a special color-keyed Landau vinyl roof and body trim; simulated diamond chips laminated into the rear quarter opera windows; front bucket seats with a padded center console, upholstered in luxury cloth with broadlace inserts; Tiffany 36-oz. carpeting; padded leather and ebony wood accents; beveled instrument panel lenses; and nearly all available optional features as standard equipment.

The Jubilee Gold example offered from The Shrine of the Holy Grille is one of 2,557 produced in this color, and remains in virtually mint original condition with 18,000 actual miles at the time of cataloguing. Sold new by Wallen Motors of Jenkintown, Pennsylvania, it is still equipped with its original unique leather-wrapped owner’s manual and tool kit, as well as the original window sticker, warranty ID card, and purchase paperwork.
