1977 Lincoln Mark V ONCE IN A LIFETIME DEAL? 1 Owner Barn Find 9k Miles Triple Yellow ORIGINAL TIRES 

Papa Bear 🐻 here. First I would like to thank everyone of you for following my son and I for our adventures into these classic and beautiful cars that he finds with low miles. Family means a lot to me. I would also like to thank each and everyone for the comments that you made my son and I working together. That is what family does together❤

He brought a tear to my eye I wish my dad was around enjoying life together

Love the ending about your dad .. and yes that’s what’s important.. you are a lucky man to have your dad and share a passion.. but you Dad is a lucky man to have a son that loves him as much as you do

Your a great son Anthony. Your Dads enjoying every minute with you as well !!!

My old employer had a 78 Mark V with a 460, blue metallic and blue velour interior. Wait till you drive your Lincoln, the ride on these cars is spectacular! You found a beautiful Lincoln! Enjoy! Nice to see a father and son getting along.

Your priorities are in the right place. The time you spend with your dad are priceless!

$3k???? Damn! You are lucky but mostly for the time with your dad like you said. Great video- end was the best!

That is a gorgeous Mark V I say keep it !! Time with our parents is definitely more precious the older we get.

You’re so lucky to have Papa Bear to travel with him. Spend as much time as you can with him and your family. My dad unexpectedly passed young, but fortunately we spent a lot of time together that I’ll never forget!

Anthony - great back story Thanks for bringing us along. Making Memories with Dad are priceless. Lincoln is beautiful.

I’ve been watching your videos from the beginning. I was in the car business for 20 years. I’ve worked with my dad the last 15 every day. You are 100% correct. Memories and the wonderful people we meet are the REAL treasure. I decided to leave the car business and follow my dreams in the school bus world as a new contractor transporting kids . (One hour from you in Maine) I’ve been truly happy ever since. Please keep up the great work, I wish you and papa bear the best!

Keep enjoying your time with your Dad. I love to watch your adventures with him. Very special times.

If that Lincoln was three inches longer it would need a zip code.

Brother you're a good man and a great son! God bless you!

Appreciate the remarks about your Dad and the importance of a father/son relationship. 20 years ago an outsider would have said mine was broken beyond repair - really due to me as the son having made poor choices and carefully nurturing a huge chip on my shoulder as well. Fast forward and I grew up, recovered, made Dad proud - and some my best memories are times we shared together; weekends just the two of us. Yes, usually involving cars and a road trip as well. He's 82 now, we're not done yet, and I really think he's one of the best men I've known. It does matter. Now, a side note - boy I miss the days when cars could come with a special interior which really set one apart from the other. Down with taupe! Finally - 3000???? Damn!!!

You guys are just awesome plain and simple... my father passed two yrs after my mom in 2014 at 92 yrs old and I miss him everyday and wish for a sec I could have just an hour with him again, I know I’ll see him again on the other side. Thank you for sharing that side of yourself it shows character .

Anthony....the last 2 minutes were priceless. God bless you, papa bear and your family. The 3k is a hit brother and I doubt I need to tell you that.

This car wasn't what I was expecting. I was expecting it to be a rust bucket with mice ness in the interior. This car is a true time capsule.

Its good you and your father can get along so well, I love to hear of close families and you are lucky to have your parents.

You had no choice you had to bring that big girl home. She is amazing!!

Nice, has tilt wheel too. Turn signal stalk you have to push away from you to adjust the wheel

Thank you for sharing! I got choked up when you talked about time shared with your pops!!! So special! You're a good son!!!

What's amazing about the rims on this car is Lincoln / "Ford" carried that style all the way through to the early 90s.

God bless you Anthony, and your Dad. Family is everything !!

There's nothing like spending quality time with your parent(s) 👍🏾👍🏾❤

That part you said about your father was so touching it totally brought me back to a time when I used to go to auctions and car sales and stuff like that when I was starting out on my business and used to be my partner in crime and always supported me in my decisions, now I look back that was some time ago now and my father has been passed on for many years now, thank you for bringing back a memory to me, bless your heart.

Great words about spending time with your father.

Can't wait for the full walk around video. Take it from me: time with your Dad is what it's all about, so glad you shared this amazing find with him. Cheers

Wow! What an epic find! You've got a real time capsule with that '77 Continental Mark V... Your personal message is so important - “Love your family...stay connected with your family...make memories...enjoy their company....because they may not always be around.” Best wishes.

They are the original floor mats! The car also has tilt wheel! Press the signal switch forward and tilt the wheel!

Appreciate every minute you have. You only have 1 DAD. Oh yeah! $3000! Lucky AF!

Love the color combo. Love the price! I’m sure you will have to put some time and money into it to get it running perfectly like you do. Enjoy your trips with Papa Bear, You are lucky to have him with you

The finds are fun...but the times with dad is PRICELESS...me & my dad are the same way...

Wow, what a deal! Yes, those are the original factory floor mats. You're talking about your dad was so sweet. My father is gone now but we did bond over Lincolns together. He didn't care about them, called them stinking Lincolns, but he new I loved them so he helped me find them and work on them way back when I was a teenager. Glad you're cherishing your time together.

Absolutely love it. The car, time with your Dad and doing what you love, how can it get better mate?

Awesome car Anthony And I like the way you feel about your Dad and spending time with him.

That’s a great story and I understand completely. I took my son and daughter to Florida to purchase a 79 Lincoln convertible the same color as yours. That was 10 years ago this month. We are still talking about that trip!!

i've never met you my friend but wanted to say you have your priorities straight. When you started speaking about your relationship with you dad, it brought tears to my eyes. I thought "this guy gets it" Treasure the here and now and store memories for the future. Beautiful car.

Awesome find. It is great to see father son together. My dad and I work together on restoring Cadillacs. Great times and memories bring them back on road trips as well. Thanks for sharing.

Thank​ you​ "Papa Bear" ​ for​ the​ price.​ You're​ very​ right.​ We​ only​ have​ so​ much​ time​ in​ the​ world.​ Congratulations!!! That's​ a​ beautiful​ find.

BAM!!! And Papa Bear spills the beans! Anthony, I loved the look on your face right at that moment! Too funny!!! But seriously, you are so lucky to have your Dad around. Both of my parents have been gone for 15 and 16 years, and believe me, it's the little things that I miss so much...Things I didn't even think were that important at the time. You're a good son and Papa Bear is lucky to have a son like you! I gotta tell you, I got a little choked up there for a minute. But thank you so much for sharing that sentiment with us! As for the Mark V...WOW! What an amazing car! A friend of mine had a triple burgundy Mark V back then, and man what a car that was. The view out over that long hood looking at that Lincoln star waaayyyy out there was always so impressive! But whatever you decide to do with it, enjoy! Take care!

Love the MarkV,A1,time with Pops is priceless!❤

That car is beautiful I have liked that car since it was new in 77 when I was about 8 years old.

Great video !!! Always good to see happy faces. And I don't understand How can someone dislike that video ? I mean Really guys ? What is wrong with You 🤬.

Great purchase!

Another winner, Anthony! Beautiful original condition! I owned a '76 Mark IV, had a such a nice, smoothe ride. Glad you are cherishing these moments with your Dad, treasure him always! My Dad has been gone for 42 yrs and I still miss him every day. God Bless you both!

The last four minutes of this video was the best part. Says a lot About you! Good luck with all your endeavors.

Such great memories you’re making together! Awesome Lincoln. Cant wait to see her all cleaned up and running!

Wow. Anthony you are my HERO. What better way to spend time and bond with him over vintage classic cars. I only hope this is something you will one day do with your own son. As I mentioned to you last week we are also a Cadillac family, however, I had the pleasure of taking care of one of these marvelous Mark V's for a client some 44 years ago, and I must say they were/ are fine automobiles. You have me thinking I would enjoy coming to New Hampshire to view your impressive collection.

You got a deal on that one! My guess is the family was more focused on getting millions for the house and just wanted to dump the cars. Their loss is your gain. That Mark V is worth about $30K.

You guys are the coolest father , son team around ... awesome memories Anthony 👍👍.... and papa bear let the cat out of the bag !!!!!! Toooo funnnny 😂😂

I LOVE the Relationship between you and your Dad Anthony, wish I had that. And all of your BEAUTIFUL AMERICAN Cars....especially the Cadillacs. Keep them coming...LOVE them Man. !!!!

Some of the best moments of my life were spent cruising down the highway with just me and my dad... Cherish it.

This is unbelievable... wow That car weighs more than that F150 ha

Hey fellas, I couldn't agree more with your comments about spending time with your dad, Papa Bear. My job years ago allowed my late father to travel with me from Colorado to North and South Dakota. We had the greatest of times travelling all over for my job. Sadly he passed away almost 11 years ago, but I have all of the great memories to reflect on, even to this day. Obviously you know to cherish the time given. Great channel and great cars. Keep it rolling!!

I just love this style ! I saved a 78 diamond jubilee from a garage ! Good job man

Looking forward to see you getting her running and on the road, I say hang onto it... And it's great to see you and your Dad spending time together, my Dad means the world to me.

You are so very lucky to be sharing wonderful stuff like this with Papa Bear. Thanks for making me smile.

Anthony you nailed it. Time is short it's great you share a passion for these classics. Thanks for sharing

awesome ... hope you Guys had a good roadtrip! Thanks for sharing!

I am really enjoying these road trip videos! Family is everything. I try to spend as much time with my dad as possible. The car is beautiful! A little to big for my taste but gorgeous and in awesome shape. Hopefully you'll hang on to it for awhile and enjoy it.

Holy CRAP! What a BEAUTIFUL CAR! My Dad had a 1979 Town Car that we owned over 30 years. Best cars ever!

There are two things I want to comment on. You paid ONLY $3k for this car??!! Being all original, a car like this might (after cleaning and the like) roll across the auction block and fetch, I don't know, 10x that amount, or more. Good deal! The second thing is the most important. Spending time with Dad and making memories... you are spot on about this and, you and your father are both very fortunate to have each other to go do things like this.

My Dad had a 79 Bill Blass Edition....I learned to drive on that car.....Huge. Loved it!

Wise son and very lucky beloved father! My own lifetime experiences, both as a nurse and daughter, have convinced me that what ultimately matters to most of us as life evolves & nears its end, are the shared experiences we can play back in our minds and take comfort from over and over. May you and your dad continue to cherish each others company and have many more unique funny car memories.

Wow, amazing find! Has it ever had a car wash? Wow. amazing!!

Sweet looking Lincoln! Coming from a Lincoln fan !👍🏽and a "Brougham " fan as well ! Good job guys!

Let me tell you something brother, by you telling the story about your trips, picking up Classic cars with your father is a blessing,most of us don't even have our parents with us anymore, and don't get me wrong, I saw the tears in your eyes, when you were talking, and trust and believe,I was crying right along with you, can't wait for the next classic car that you get, looking forward to seeing you and your father,1 love brother from another mother 🥃🥃💯

You two are the tops. Watching this video reminds me of when my dad and I would go and pick up cars. Some we could fix, some we could part out. Either way my brother and I really enjoyed that time with our dad.

Anthony, man you are a wise man. Life is about the memories we make with those that mean so much to us. You and your Dad are very blessed to enjoy the relationship and time you have together. And WOW that car, it is AWESOME! I hope you get it running soon, and take it on a drive and share it. I can just see that huge Lincoln hood ornament at the edge of that hood guiding the way. Perfect.

Those are the factory floor mats. My family has owned a few of those beautiful land cruisers.

God bless you and keep you, your Dad and Mom. You’re a great son, of a great father and mother, thank you for sharing your heart.

Wow what a find!!! Perfect time capsule. I remember when these cars were everywhere.

I’m at a loss of words Tony ,,, I’m just grateful for you and pops and this awesome channel . Thank you my friend for making another off the hook video.

it's a real blessing what you and your dad are doing together ! never quit ! and safe roads ahead !

LOVE THE CAR! Live all Lincolns. My father passed away the day after my 5th birthday.. so watching & listening to you talk about your father & seeing you hangout with him, really makes me wish I got to experience that too & had my father in my life. Really sad & hurts. Especially during important events or situations in life, like when I graduated from basic training or finished 6 year enlistment... anyways, I LOVE the Lincoln Mark V so much. One of my all time favorite cars. I love all luxury cars from all years, Buick, Lincoln, Cadillac, mercury etc..

My dad had a 1979 Mark V Collector Edition that had all the major trim options white on white. It was a beauty. I wish he were still alive to see this video because he loved these cars.

It goes by in the blink of an eye. Spend as much time as you can with him. I miss my pop. He passed at 54 years old, I am now 55 and look back on all the great times we had and it’s been 22 years since he’s gone. But it still feels like yesterday. Nice find as well

You are really lucky to have your father with you. I wish my father is still around. That's a beautiful car

Love your channel. You’re doing the right thing. Enjoy your experiences with pop. The cars will rust away. Your memories will last forever. The cars are cool though. 😉

Yep, factory mats - same logo on my ‘78 mats

Spectacular find, but I'm not sure which is the best part: the automobile or the time you have with your father. My father died of heart disease in 1978. I would give nearly anything to hear his voice again. God bless you and your splendid father.

Nice words about your father, the time you spend with him is priceless. Keep this car.... it's not once in a lifetime, more like 2 or 3 lifetimes. And you can now display it in your dealer showroom with it's original tires and factory markings. Not many folks have 2 Caddy's sitting on original Royal Seals and a Mark V sitting on original Goodyear Polysteels.... keep all three!

Enjoy the time with papa bear. Recently lost my father. But many of my memories of both of my parents were made growing up in the family business and eventually working for them. The car is beautiful! Wish I could get it. Love your videos!

What a beauty!

That was a true to your heart thing you said. Kinda got to my heart. You'll have a great relationship and that is great. Your dad has to be very proud of you. That is great that you and your dad can go on trips to pick up these older big cars which are the great legends of cars back then. I have a 1990 Oldsmobile 88 Royale sedan. It has 73,000 miles and I know I can rely on it as long as I keep up the maintenance on it. It is still almost like new. 3.8 liter v6 engine. Also air works great. Best friend bought it for 4,500 with it only having 34,000 miles. He recently passed away and the car was gifted to me. It has all the books. It is burgundy with red cloth interior. Very nice car. Well you buy some really nice older cars and it is nice to see someone buy them and they will live on for many more years. I love older cars. These new ones have too many tech in them and you cannot do the maintenance on them yourself. That is why I love the older cars plus they have style and metal. Not plastic like the new cars. You stole that lincoln for three thousand dollars. It is probably worth over ten thousand dollars. You are going to be well in business. Stay healthy, happy and safe. Thumb up...

I bought a mint 1977 Cadillac Eldorado in 1995, sea mist green, with a dark green half roof, 42k miles. I brought the car over to show my father on a Tuesday (5/2/95), it was a nice visit; he knew everything about cars, more than most mechanics, he rebuilt engines, did spotless body work, anything. I got a call on Friday (5/5/95) from my stepmother, she informed me my father died that morning of a heart attack. I was devastated, but that’s what can happen when you smoke. I wish I could say he was a good father, but he wasn’t. Please feel privileged to be blessed with such a good father, most of us probably can’t say that. The Mark V is my favorite car if all time, I had several chances to buy one over 40 years ago, but I was concerned about what other people would think about my reckless spending. Stupid, I wish I bought one, and screw everybody else.

Nice car..for sure . A man broke down with a two door 78 Lincoln in front of my home 2 door to tone blue. I offered to help him get it running again he's thinking about selling it to me for 2k. 44,000 the car is a beauty white leather interior. It's a dream car so I'm waiting patiently...will see people say they will sell then don't. Lucky you.. keep it its worth 15k as it sits but to the right buyer keep it for 5yrs it will sell at 22-25k. Good luck Anthony and papa bear .brings back sweet car memories for me on that year car!

Wow very nice i had one the same year same color and the interior i wish I still had it very nice car Anthony

Nice to see somebody who appreciates old cars .

SOOOOooooo Many of us shed a mournful tear, because ............WE MISS OUR COOL DAD's! OMG what I'd give to just talk 10 minutes with MY papa bear! Screw the $$$$$$ and sleds! they matter only because of the mutual bonding! Get a cardio workup every six months! Both of you are paunchy!, Italian's live the BEST life! The food, the wine, the CADILLACS! But as a retired PA-C I see danger signs ahead unless you both get cleared by a cardiologist! Here is an honest to God story, My dad called me from his hospital bed in Savannah Georgia. He said mom was signing him out at the nurse's station, and they had packed his things up and he felt like calling me, we seldom spoke. He said these exact words "Son I know how excited you are to welcome your new baby in a few days..If God lets me live a few years longer, I can't wait to go back to Phoenix and visit you all! ) I told him I loved him and wished him good luck. Less than 20 minutes later the Hospital social worker called. She informed me my dad coded after he handed the phone over to the wheelchair attendant! Said my mom had just walked in and he grabbed his chest and grimaced! The crash team was in that room in less than two minutes! after doing all that they could, she dismissed them and sat on the bed. married 60 years, WW-ll , Korea, 22 years in the USAF. He had had both arteries cleaned in his neck and an embolism of fat lodged in his heart. Timing is everything! I just had a cardio stress test last week, unlike the old days when you ran on a treadmill until you collapsed, the new way is comfortable! It's all passive nuclear. I complained of chest pains and my insurance paid the $8.000 I was partly blocked but now on a special medicine and diet. WE LOVE YOU GUYS! don't take care of your Cadillacs better than you do to your coronary arteries! Father & Son business is healthy for you both! You inspire many! Please Do Not Wait! After that........Party like it's 1992! .

Holy shit! You stole that car. And yes those are factory mats.

Lost my dad when I was 11yrs old. All through my life I'd hear my friends say, my dad this, or my dad is really pissing me off today. Always kept my thoughts to myself when they were sounding off. When I wanted to say, ''vaffanculoma, you fooking strunze chooch'' You and your dad are lucky men Subscribed!

What a great Lincoln 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

This cars' lines are nearly as sweet from a distance as a factory El Dorado. You have yourself a Banana Graham Cracker Cream Pie of a car now. Nice road trip with your Dad..

Congratulations on finding this beautiful car! You may or may know it has the optional Gold and Cream Luxury Group. It would be interesting to see the Marti report on this car to see how many Mark Vs with this option were produced. Hope to see it at an LCOC National Meet some day.

God Bless you Anthony and your father (papa bear).

great story Anthony, I totally agree with you!

Yes those are factory mats. My mom had a 77 Mark V with the 2 tone light/dark jade green interior.

Bwahahaha!!! Papa Bear spilled the beans!! I don’t care for Lincolns either but at that price you CAN’T go wrong!! Liked you reasons for being in the business!! Wished I could come up with something like that!! Keep it real Anthony!! You’re well grounded in what’s right in this world!!
