Ray B. ◊ 2008-07-29 23:41	The reverse and retractable backlite makes it a Continental Mark III 4 door sedan (1958) or Mark IV Landau (1959-60). I'm unable to decide which.
58Roadmaster ◊ 2008-07-30 01:24	I hope we don't crash the site, but here are some awesome hi-res close-up photos of the 1959 Mark IV. Hover your pointer over the thumbnails to allow the full size image to appear in the main image area. http://home.xnet.com/~otis/Lincoln/ -- Last edit: 2008-07-30 01:25:11
Ddey65 ◊ 2008-07-30 02:11	You're already convinced it's a Mark IV, aren't you? Hey, did you see the pushbuttons on that radio? -- Last edit: 2008-07-30 02:12:07
firebird86 ◊ 2008-07-30 02:50	Tail lights are different than the ones on the 1959, I believe its a 1958. comments?
58Roadmaster ◊ 2008-07-30 03:21	No I had other comments saying it was a 1960, but then I found out that there were other four-door hardtop landaus outside the Continental series, so I deleted them. I like the idea of this as a '60, because of the rear fender script, but that's all I know of the Continentals.

pilou ◊ 2008-07-30 12:50	The six taillights look round rather than the flatter oval ones of 1959 , taillight housing panel is quite squarish and there is indeed a rear fender script.It is a 1960 Lincoln Continental Landau Mark V
Ray B. ◊ 2008-07-30 17:33	58Roadmaster wrote You mean the "Town" and "Country" ones, I wonder if anyone could explain those. I can't really explain it, but I've seen that on other cars. Seems there would be different settings fot Town (lots of channels available) and Country where they were much fewer. -- Last edit: 2008-07-30 17:34:07
58Roadmaster ◊ 2008-07-30 18:04	lovefords.org designates this body as a [75A].
Ray B. ◊ 2008-08-01 02:52	58Roadmaster wrote You mean the "Town" and "Country" ones, I wonder if anyone could explain those. I just stumbled upon a 1957 Ford Brochure and here is what it says; "Town button tunes local station. Country button gives broad coverage."
58Roadmaster ◊ 2008-08-01 03:36	Maybe the "Country" setting was to amplify the reception of weak stations that could be found only when unblocked by the city stations.
Alexander ◊ 2008-08-02 21:17	58Roadmaster wrote You mean the "Town" and "Country" ones, I wonder if anyone could explain those. The 'Town' and 'Country' buttons appeared with the auto-tuning radios in early 1950s. The driver could press a floor mounted switch with his left foot and a small electric motor would tune the radio to the next (Country) or strongest (Town) station. 58Roadmaster wrote Also, does the wife come with the car? That is an optional extra. But beware, this extra increases the running costs dramatically ...
