1976 Lincoln Continental Mark IV Givenchy

 

From Jonathan Welsh: "This one brought back memories of watching too much television as a kid, including commercials for Lincoln's Designer Series. The company commissioned designers Bill Blass, Cartier, Givenchy and Pucci, asking each to put his spin on the Mark IV. At the time I was partial to the white-shirt-navy-blazer style of Blass, but Givenchy was by far the most adventurous and the clear winner today. All that blue -- a merger of sky and powder. This like-new example turned up in Montclair, N.J."AL: speaking of 1976 Lincolns, how about The Dear Leader's funeral?We caught a 1954 Lincoln Capri in Maine a while ago

Jaguar XK140 Brooklin Maine

  Caught the Jag at the Brooklin Inn, in the company of several other great British and European two-seaters. Looked like a club tour. Here's an earlier XK120 we caught in Maine a while ago. And an XK150 in Santa Barbara. We have also posted on Joan Baez's XKE.
