This 1974 Lincoln Continental Mark IV is a stunning time capsule with fewer than 2,800 original miles, finished in its original triple black color combination: Black paint (code 1C), Black vinyl roof, and Black leather twin comfort lounge seats (code BA). Powered by the original 460ci 4V V8 paired with the C6 automatic transmission, the car was assembled at the Wixom plant on June 27, 1974, and sold new by Art Hill Lincoln-Mercury in Merrillville, Indiana. According to the Elite Marti Report, this example is 1 of only 1,867 built with this exact paint and trim combination, making it exceptionally rare—especially with its extremely low mileage and original finishes. The vehicle retains all original paint and interior, showcasing its preservation quality. Factory Equipment Includes: - Black Vinyl Roof - 230x15 Radial White Sidewall Tires - Speed Control (Cruise Control) - Tilt Steering Wheel - Reclining Passenger Seat - Electric Rear Window Defroster - Interval Windshield Wipers - Appearance Protection Group - Right-Hand Remote Control Mirror - Lock Convenience Group - Body Side Moldings The Marti Report confirms the car was a stock order delivered to the Chicago District Sales Office (DSO 41), with the order received on May 13, 1974, serialized on June 7, and released just after assembly on June 28. It was first sold on September 13, 1974. This Lincoln presents a rare opportunity to acquire a true survivor luxury coupe from the golden age of American personal luxury cars.
