Lincoln Continental
After the very popular and influential 1961 to 1969 Continental model, Lincoln presented an upgraded and elegant 1970 model, which served for a full nine years until 1979. It was designed similarly to other Lincoln and Mercury models but still retained several unique features, details, and trim (via Auto Evolution).
Front headlights were under the automatically operated cover, which was a nice touch. Under the hood, the 460 V8 was present but gradually lost power due to tightening emissions standards. However, Continental retained signature comfort, luxury, and a high level of equipment and sold well despite its heavy price tag.
