    10-15 years ago it would have been about half to 1/3 that, so not too bad considering what every other car is going for.

    That really isn't bad, and it's the colors I would want in a Lincoln: a 'midnite blue' metallic, with a medium or dark blue interior, but leather would be the choice I'd make.

    Interesting leather, power mini vents and no cruise. Beautiful car, unfortunately’79 for some reason is the least desirable. Probably the 400 doesn’t help. Will be curious to what it brings.

    I believe '79 was the last year for this body.

    Yeah ‘77 was the trifecta for me. Rolls grill, skirts, and the ribbon speedometer. A hit in any man’s book!

    Well I never thought I would see a ‘79 Town Car sitting north of $40,000. But it is money maker black, and 1,800 miles. There is definitely not a nicer Town Car (‘79) in existence. But again it begs the question. Do you drive it, or admire it as it’s backing out of the trailer. It is a beautiful car can it get to $50k? It is a strange world we live in.
