Parked in Drive: 1979 Lincoln Continental Mark V Bill Blass Designer Edition
It’s difficult to imagine this happening today: Picture a major domestic automaker announcing the last hurrah of its largest, most opulent personal luxury car with the usual array of special edition models. But instead of letting its own designers handle the “collectible” trim-and-paint kits, it employed a fleet of famous, mostly European fashion houses to send off their last-generation model in style.
From 1976 until the early 1990s, Lincoln did exactly this for its flagship Continental coupes.
