1972 Lincoln Continental

GR Auto Gallery is excited to present this highly collectible 1972 Lincoln Continental finished in its striking and rarely seen factory yellow paint, a color that immediately sets this car apart. This example is especially special, being one of just 907 produced with this paint code and an incredible one of only 38 built with this specific paint and trim combination. The long, dramatic body lines are accented by a white vinyl roof which was originally brown, and signature flip out headlights that remain one of the most iconic design elements of any seventies luxury car.

Power comes from Lincolns legendary 460ci 4 barrel V8 paired with a smooth C6 3-speed automatic transmission, delivering effortless torque and whisper quiet cruising. This Continental is equipped with power steering, power brakes, and automatic climate control, making it an incredibly comfortable and confident car to drive. Recent mechanical updates include electronic ignition, a new pinion bearing seal with fresh rear differential oil, upper control arm bushings, a new brake master cylinder, new wheel cylinders and rear brake shoes, a new fuel pump, fresh shocks, and a Holley carburetor while retaining the original carburetor as well. These updates help ensure the car drives as well as it looks.

Inside, the light grey gold cloth and vinyl bench seat interior delivers true Lincoln luxury, with power seats, power windows, and power locks all contributing to a relaxed and elegant driving experience. The wood trimmed steering wheel adds warmth and classic style, while the factory gauge cluster featuring alternator, fuel, temperature, oil pressure, and an analog clock keeps the dash period correct. An AM/FM stereo and fully functioning air conditioning and heat complete the interior, making this Continental a comfortable cruiser in any season.

The 1972 Continental represents the height of American luxury before downsizing took over, offering bold styling, unmatched road presence, and effortless performance. The inclusion of a copy of the original window sticker adds valuable documentation, further enhancing collectability. With its rarity, recent mechanical work, and unmistakable presence, this Continental is a standout example of early seventies Lincoln craftsmanship.
