Build story
My dad used to have a 75’ Continental in highschool which also had a 460 that he did a bunch of crazy stuff in, so now that I am a senior in highschool we found this Mark iii, we are the second owners and it had been sitting since the late 90’s. we liked It because it’s an original triple black car, and pre emissions which means the 460 cranks out 365hp and 500ft lbs (gross ratings I believe) which seems to be enough to make this 5,000lb boat get down!! We hopped up a few little things but plan for more in the future. Runs pretty hard for the time being, mostly stock, a lot of fun, and absolutely murders tires for distance.
