Following the 50s and land yachts, downsizing was in order. While manufacturers focused their effort on performance and moving towards making muscle cars, Lincoln stuck to its guns and provided the automotive world with the epitome of luxury cruising. However, the 70s and its gas crisis saw Lincoln take a different path and introduce its first midsize luxury car, the "Versailles." Named after a picturesque french palace, the Lincoln Versailles stayed true to its roots and provided its occupants a low-down, luxury drive feel. Present today is a lovely example of Lincoln's foray into the midsize luxury car market and comes in the form of this stunning 1980 Lincoln Versailles.
While Lincoln flies underneath the blue oval banner driving one proves to be an experience, an experience filled with life in the slow lane and treasuring every mile traveled. Keep this in mind and look at this 1980 Lincoln Versailles with its two-tone silver and black exterior; you know heads will turn for a glance while you cruise by. The body is in great shape, with the car's chrome components present and adding to the vehicle's appeal. Matching all the chrome and staying true to its originality is the car's factory wheels which are wrapped with white wall tires serving as this vehicle's shoes. With four doors and more space for your passengers, the gray leather interior of this 1980 Lincoln Versailles makes you want to step out and explore. Look around, and you are treated to a fine mix of wood, leather trim, and the car's original trim, providing that luxury feel.
While the Versailles was a downsized and midsize luxury offering, it was ultimately a car that sports the Lincoln badge, the size and luxury come at a price, which is added weight, but the 302ci (4.9L) small-block V8 powering this 1980 Lincoln Versailles provides performance to ensure you experience that smooth Lincoln drive feel with no exceptions. The small block V8 is also reputed to be a reliable power unit that offers trouble-free and practical classic car ownership thanks to spare part availability. Power is sent to the car's rear wheels through an automatic transmission.

Luxury cruising can be experienced in many forms. One might opt to visit the closest dealership and run through examples that give you luxury and tech at every glance. For those who know and understand that luxury cruising is done best with classic motors, you can't replicate that old-school perception of luxury and class. This 1979 Lincoln Continental Town Car Collector Series is a fine example of that. With a reported 26,248 miles on the clock, this low mileage luxury classic is the golden standard of cruising and can be yours to enjoy a weekend drive in style.
The late 40s saw a resurgence in the American luxury car market that had almost died completely thanks to more than a decade of economic depression and World War. The post-war boom brought a wave of Cadillacs, Packards, and Lincolns re-entering the market. For the first few years after the war, most cars (especially the more expensive ones like the Lincoln Continentals) were largely similar to the pre-war models. This was due to civilian automobile production being paused after Pearl Harbor (and America’s subsequent direct involvement in WWII). In this case, the first-generation Continental had only been in production for a couple of years before being put on hold. They were offered only in 2-door form, as either a coupe or a convertible. Several changes were made when production was resumed in 1946, the most prominent being the “Zephyr” name being removed from Lincoln-Zephyr. This production run would last only a few years as well, ending in 1948. The 1949 Continental would be a fancier Mercury and not quite the expensive and exclusive personal-luxury vehicle that its predecessor was.
The 1960s American automotive landscape witnessed a thrilling duel between muscle cars, each manufacturer vying to set new benchmarks in performance and striking aesthetics. However, amidst the roar of muscle cars, the era also birthed iconic full-sized luxury automobiles. If you yearn to relish the opulence and grandeur of a 1960s luxury cruiser with its original splendor intact, look no further than this 1969 Lincoln Continental Mark III Coupe, adorned with a reported 75,800 miles on its distinguished journey. Remarkably, this is an entirely original specimen, preserving its heritage on all fronts.
Triumph was a well-known British sports car maker for decades. The cars were made by the Standard Motor Company of Coventry, and they offered enthusiastic buyers the typical British roadster experience of the wind in your hair and a pert little sports car to hustle around country roads. Naturally, Americans would get to experience these cars too, as evidenced by this 1962 Triumph TR3A that’s for sale right now. The car reportedly underwent a frame-off restoration in 2015, making it nice and fresh for its new owner to enjoy.
It is often said that life was better in the ʼ80s. Music, clothes, and of course, cars. This 1989 Mercedes 560SL is a car that could take you through time. Kept in pristine condition, this car is ready to stretch its legs having covered a reported 53,208 miles in its 36-year life. With the name having been around for 70 years, it's safe to assume that Mercedes knows what they’re doing.
As the latest vehicles give you the utmost convenience and performance that you can imagine, classic cars continue to fill our hearts with nostalgia and a driving experience to remember. This 1965 Buick Special is one such example that takes you back to the ʼ60s when roads were filled with art on wheels. When it comes to vintage cars like this, it is difficult to find an example that is untouched. One of the main highlights of this Buick is that according to its current owner, it is all original. With memories worth 105,000 miles, this classic is now residing in Albany, New York. There is no doubt that this beauty will be a perfect Sunday cruiser and an attention grabber at classic car events.
