Let's Enjoy a Little Luxury in a 1984 Lincoln | Repair and Review!

Chase Classic Motors | Episode 30: "Continental Divide" (S3Ep4) WOW-WEE-WOW!! With over 40 years in the American luxury market, few cars fit the role better than the 1984 Lincoln Continental. As Ford's high-end brand, Lincoln had cemented a legacy for attractive, powerful, and sumptuous sedans and coupes that were both aesthetically pleasing and aspirational. Then how did it come to pass that Lincoln's signature dish became a pint-size player based on the Mustang? Ross and Eric will get to work on this all original, one-owner car to see if this Lincoln's champagne tastes turned out to be sour lemonade! So, break out the hors d'oeuvres, pop the cork on that bottle of bubbly, and present the aperitifs... as we look into how the better-half lives; at least for a little while... with a little dose of luxury!
