Name the year and model from left to right.

Bonus question: Name the location.

 

[LeoC2]

Somewhere in GB

 

[budpytko]

Leo, does GB mean "Glen Burnie"??? hehehe

 

[Boomer57]

SANDY HELP!!!

 

[PB3Wannabe]

Just guessing at all of them....

1979 Licoln Continental
1975 Mark V
1965 Continental
1994 Mark VIII
1977 Continental Mark VI


The red thing looks like a VW?

 

[Splat]

Continental 71ish
MkIV 73-4ish
Continental 62?
VIII (first gens rule) }>
MkIV 73-4ish

Germany?

 

[Noddy]

Hmmm...the Opel at the right sure could point to Germany, but none of the license plates are German. Most of the european countries use a similar license plate with a country letter on them now, I am not so sure about GB tho, they are always somewhat different...LOL! So, my bet would be either GB, or one of the ex eastern block countries.

Here's why I think it's England... look at the highway in the background, can you see what side of the road the cars are driving on? But then again the plates don't look British, they look more like Belgian plates.

Oh hell... I'm so confused I don't know what I'm talking about!

 

[Sandy]

United Kingdom, I think.....

 

[driller]

OK, I'll give you what I think #1 is...

1973 Continental

How about a clue for the location...

Heineken.

 

[Was Fuz]

The one this side of the 94 Mk is a 69-71 Mk 1ll.
These were great cars. It apperars to be a 69 since the
wipers dont retract under the cowl

 

[driller]

I was thinking both the burnt orange and dark green(#2 and #5) to be the same... 1972 Continental Mark IV? The front grill being fairly distinctive, how the bumper drops down and around the grill.

Location clue #2...

Amstel.

 

[Marcia]

I think you're right on the Mark IV's--'72's. I think the 1st one is a '74 and the Continental is a '67. The later years of Mark IV's parking lights were a bit different.

 

[driller]

...I think the 1st one is a '74 and the Continental is a '67.

I still think '73 Continental on the first Lincoln(Light Green).

I believe the Black Lincoln with the suicide doors to be a '66 Continental.

It's in Holland. The Mark VIII has dutch plates and the Poster is written partially in dutch.

[SERGMARK]

On the black one it has a logo on the left front fender. Maybe not a 66 but older.

<drool>

Honestly if given the coice of owning any of these, I don't know if I wuold even pick the mark 8... they are all so beautiful. I'm gonna keep this post short so I can go look at the pic again!


94 Mark VIII, Black / Black

 

[Marcia]

I'd take that green '72 in a heartbeat over the other cars, with the gold '72 (?) coming in 2nd. I had a '72 T'bird years ago and loved that car! It had a 460 and a 4 barrel carb...got 18mpg on regular with no knocking, dieseling, or pinging. If only...but I was 22 at the time and traded it in (read: gave it away!)on a new rice car ('78 Celica).

The poster was a dead giveaway.

Purmerend, Netherlands(a.k.a. Holland)

For its time, the 460/4 barrel was a lethal combo, even in one of these land yachts the performance was more than adequate.
