I have no personal interest or stake in the eventual sale of this 1970 Lincoln Continental Mark III - Project.

It might not be a bad buy, but hard to tell with almost no information. Most likely the 31K miles indicate that odometer has turned over at least once. Why even try to sell it if you can't at least post a decent description of the car. Pictures of the interior and the engine compartment would also help. It also looks like it could be rusting under the vinyl roof. Given it is in Illinois a thorough rust check would be in order.

There is definitely some serious rust under the vinyl top.

Since Lincoln Mark III's are so readily

available, I think the better deal would

be to find one already in excellent condition

and fairly priced.  There are so many around

that, with patience, a buyer can even have

his choice of colors.

I agree. These were the kind of cars that were babied and still some nice ones out there. May have to pay twice the asking of this one but you will be saving a lot more than that in restoration cost. 

As to the lack of pictures, for $5k I think the best pics of the car are shown!
