@@user-zu1ni5cd1g how do you find the 06 model for driving and comfort

@@marcfuchs6938 I agree the cars America made years ago had style but today that has all gone, I can’t get excited with any new car produced today

The Lincoln is parked up at a friends house until September, then we go back over and drive it back west to the radium hot springs car show in BC and then east all the way to Halifax Nova Scotia

I couldn’t agree with you more, this was back in the day when cars were designed by humans and not computers

@@brianmorrison8652 if you want a cruiser you can’t get better than the Mark V

@@brianmorrison8652 I agree they are a nice smooth riding car

@@1aikane it is always nice to see a car you share memories with

😢SS60507898993X98759SS6😢

I agree, they can’t make nice looking cars today because they are all computer designed

I like the town cars as well, I agree also that when driving these cars it takes you back in time

Thanks for the info

Luckily the AC is ice cold

I agree the wagons look great but definitely lacked power, I think in the late 70’s the car manufacturers started to panic over the emissions and threw everything onto the engines, I did like the green Marquis but couldn’t get the right deal sorted

The Lincoln drives excellent

You first rate twat, what is an idiot like you doing on CZcams, you shouldn’t even have control of the remote for the TV. I am guessing you forgot your take your pills for a few days

There's nothing "regular" about these cars. They may not be for you, but the experience they give is like nothing else.

Like driving a boat lil man.

The Lincoln is parked up inside a friends garage in Unity Saskatchewan until we return in September to carry on the road trip

Ain't nothing wrong with that!

Every trip is more meaningful, the Lincoln is more comfortable than the Chrysler and taking the back roads and stopping in the small towns and chatting to people is so much better than just driving the trans Canada highway

That’s great, I like the Cartier edition, what color is it, let me know if you get it.

@MrThompsonusa I certainly will. It looks like the same colour as yours. Dove Grey?

@@KevinMoltner yes very similar, my Lincoln is a silver metallic, dove grey is a nice color

With that Blue crushed velour interior like living room on wheels

@@anddyyoung I member when everybody’s sofa was crushed velour lol

The trip has been great so far, I would definitely recommend it to anyone

I like both cars, the Lincoln is a smoother drive and more comfortable, also has all the electrics and tilt wheel, the Chrysler is the basic model no electric windows, seats, tilt wheel or cruise control, gas wise the 460ci in the Lincoln is about the same gas mileage as the 383ci in the Chrysler, I am going to put up a video of the Lincoln with some interior photos

We have just started the road trip across Canada in the Mark V Lincoln 2 weeks ago, we head back to England now but we come back in September to do part 2, there will be a few videos going up of part 1 over the next couple of weeks

60,000 it was originally brought new in Texas by somebody in the oil business and was taken up to Alberta Canada

It was back in the day when every car had a different styling each year, not like todays cars which are the same year in year out

The Galaxie 500 isn’t for sale

The Lincoln was originally purchased new in Texas by somebody in the oil business and was brought up to Alberta

@MrThompsonusa there is one you can find here throughout Houston TX at a dealership called Bayway Lincoln. This particular one is red and white and it's a Bill Blass edition. They have it sitting in a showroom floor and if you google it you can find it.

@@adape0884frankI will see if I can find it

@@MrThompsonusa just want to let you know it's not for sale.

@@adape0884frankI had a look on their website and couldn’t see it so I figured it must not be for sale

Hi Gary, your Son has good choice, they were also our first 2 picks, in June we will be there for 2 weeks to pick the car up and arranging to get it serviced but will be staying in the Kelowna & Vancouver area, then in September we will be collecting the car and then heading east to Toronto, it would be great to maybe meet up in September

@@MrThompsonusa We will keep in touch through the channel and figure something out then.

Thunderbirds are nice, I also had a 76 town car and a 97 town car

We have completed that road trip in the 69 Chrysler Newport, we are starting another road trip across Canada in June in a 1978 Lincoln Continental Mark V

@@MrThompsonusa Love to get a 1974 Lincoln continental 🙃🤗💪👍

@@KennethAlexander-mj2zt ​​⁠ they are nice to, I also like the Mark 3 Lincoln’s

They definitely don’t make them like this anymore

@@MrThompsonusa I have a few Not as nice It’s very difficult to keep nice things Not Lincoln’s - old 71 LTD , 72 Pontiac LeMans 67- olds cutlass 68 Delmont - the population is brainwashed to buy CFR trilateral commission products I’m not getting into that now The point is Your correct That is a real car A joy to drive It’s not the destination It is the destination itself - the post 70 low compression and post 74 smog engines killed the reputation internationally giving the rust belt to Japanese But - there hasn’t been a decent car since - my friend retuned - a 77 460 Omg - unbelievable power I was impressed It through that big old car around like a go kart Unbelievable - proper oil changes and oil cooler and care - get almost 17 on highway I get 21 with a 351 C They will go over 200,000 with proper care Maybe more Most where run into the ground 10,000 years of human history 10,000 to go And only got a decent ride for a few short years And even then - one must work ones ass off to keep it The other people get extremely jealous. 10-4 and Seig Heil 14/88 and Yes Henry Ford 😎 💯 He would definitely approve of the Lincoln

Should be comfortable on a long road trip across Canada

I agree 100%, those electric cars are all bland with no character just like the people that buy them

They are nice smooth riding cars, I have had 3 previous Mark V Lincoln’s, your dad chose well

No plans to really modify the Lincoln as of yet, just keep it original, hopefully the mpg can’t be any worse that the 69 Chrysler Newport lol

Hi Kevin, yes they are easy to obtain, I use to buy a lot of classics out of the States but with the £ to $ ratio it is more economical for me to buy out of Canada, I use various sources, I have just purchased the silver metallic Lincoln Mark V which is located in Kelowna BC and we plan on going over early June. We have just completed a road trip across Canada back in September/October in a 1969 Chrysler Newport. we have put a lot of videos of that trip up on CZcams so worth taking a look. Also worth remembering is a non resident can register and insure a car in British Columbia

@@MrThompsonusa I live in the Midwest (Iowa) and thinking about this. Do Canada cars have Kilometer speedometer/odometer? Thank You

@@kevinschoeppler4115 some Canadian cars have kilometres but most of the classic cars in Canada are in MPH, a few years ago I purchased a 66 Chevy Caprice SS from a guy who lived in a small town in Iowa, the silver Lincoln Mark V I just purchased is from Texas and was owned by somebody in the oil business who sold it to a friend in the oil business in Alberta, a good source to check out for classic cars in Canada is kijji put that into google and it will come up

This 69 Chrysler Newport was purchased in Saskatoon Saskatchewan and is rust free because they don’t put salt on the road and most classic cars do not get used in the winters in Canada

They all have their pluse’s
