More and better pics of my 72’ Mark IV
New here to the forums. Here’s my 1972 Mark IV in light yellow gold. Bought via a facetime walk around and soon to be in transit to it’s new home here in TX. 21000 original miles. It’s got a couple of what look to be aftermarket accessories , such as hood mounted turn signal markers and an outside mount temp gage, on the drivers side cowl. It’s also got a real cow catcher of a front bumperette duo, with bumper guards on the back to match. I’m not bothered by either, but I would like to know of anybody else has these other A/M gizmos. Otherwise this car is bone stock the only changes being a new alternator and A/C refrigerant conversion. The car is essentially a one owner car< passed on from father to son until I just bought it. I have not had a vintage car in many years, my last being a 75 Dart , but prior to that I’ve had a 57 series 40 Buick Special ( my first car ) a 67 Firebird, a 68 Barracuda, a 69 Camaro vert”, a 72 Coronet, and a 65 Corvair Monza vert’. All of those were daily drivers. This 72 Mark is going to be just a weekender, or short runs about town.
answered my own question . The hood mounted temperature gauge is actually a General motors part with a Oldsmobile logo insert. These black dial gauges run about $1000 now if you can find one. It does not belong on a 72 Lincoln but the previous owner liked what he liked and he got what he liked, so again I’m not bothered. Its part of the history of the car.

This was my grandpa's Cordovan Metallic and White 1977 Mark V. 460ci under the hood with 61k miles on the odometer, all added by him (or by me). Of the options he selected, Passenger Side Mirror was not one of them. We've still got the original window sticker in the trunk, running roughly $14,000 all told.

My grandmother recently passed, and I'm expecting to take ownership of this beautiful car some time soon.

Hotmustard, I see you have shop manuals. I've been doing some looking for my year as well. Were they pricey? I can see a few options out there, but nothing really under $55, unless it's a CD with pdfs.

On that same topic, has anyone had experience with aftermarket shop manuals like Dave Graham Auto Literature (sells the CDs of shop manuals), Detroit Iron (same), or other similar services? I'm wondering if it's worth it to get an aftermarket licensed set of pdfs or if I should just try to get physical manuals.Lincoln 2 Side Profile small.webpLincoln 5 Front Quarter View small.jpgLincoln 6 Trunk small.jpgLincoln 7 Rear quarter view small.jpgDash Nameplate small.webp
 
Hi from France,

Hello everyone and happy cruising!
My lovable squadron. 1956, 1959, 1961.
My USN Dad always had Lincolns, so I grew up with them. He drove Town cars mostly.
I have a 2013 Navigator farm truck too. Love them.

BTW, Im John W. from Virginia. North end of the windy road Shenandoah Valley. Blue Ridge Mountain roads are my favorite.

Your 61 is so gorgeous, as is the rest of your collection. I’d love to see more pics of your 56, as well as your Mark V. Welcome! You’ve got some beautiful cars my friend.
