| has gloss | eng: See Lincoln Mark for a complete overview of the Lincoln Mark Series. The Lincoln Continental Mark V was a large coupe sold by Lincoln, the Ford Motor Companys luxury division, between the 1977 and 1979 model years. The Mark V was a restyled Mark IV, replacing that cars more rounded styling with a more squared-off, sharp-edged look that was the new automotive fashion. The standard engine was now the Ford 400 in³ (6.6 L) Big-block engine instead of the 460 in³ (7.5 L) Ford 385 engine, but the latter was available as an option everywhere but in California in the first two years of production. Designer Editions included models named after influential designers of the likes of Bill Blass, Cartier, Givenchy, and Pucci, each featuring a unique option package and exterior and interior colors. One unique feature of the 1979 Bill Blass edition was a "carriage" roof design. |
