Leno has a massive car collection, one of the largest in the country. His taste in vehicles ranges from the Dodge Viper to this 1958 Continental Mark III. This massive example of a Lincoln is the reason why cars from that era were dubbed “land yachts.” Leno is the third owner of this 1958 Continental Mark III. He purchased the car in Anaheim, California (via Hagerty).
