This edition of VAR centers on the two-door Lincoln continental Mark III  
http:/[1970 Lincoln Continental Mark III - conceptcarz.com](http://www.conceptcarz.com/vehicle/z7059/Lincoln-Continental-Mark-III.aspx/www.seriouswheels.com/pics-1970-1979/1971-Lincoln-MkIII-white-fa-sy.jpg)

Pristine condition, in and out.

Like the image, a white exterior, but no vynil top.  
Dark Blue interior with a plethora of gauges.

460 cube big block taking premium fuel.:eek:  
3 speed auto driving the rear wheels.

Driving produced a deep rumble from the exhaust and not quite as much body rool as I expected.

The door weighs a _ton._😛  
BTW, this vehicle is the basis of the Barris Kustom Kar " The Car"
