Above: New styling graced the 1966 Lincoln Continental. Standard features
shown include the Continental Star ornament on front fenders; back-up lights,
spring-loaded stand-up Continental Star hood ornament, and full wheel covers.
The white sidewall tires shown were optional at extra cost.
|
Left: Standard equipment on every 1966 Lincoln Continental included a full
assortment of power accessories, including Power Steering, Power Front
Disc Brakes, Power Side Windows, and Two-Way Power Seat.
A new high performance 462 cubic inch V-8 engine developed 340 horsepower
and was the largest Lincoln V-8 engine to date. A Twin-Range Turbo-Drive
Automatic Transmission provided an alternate drive range for slick roads
to improve traction.
Other standard features shown at left include new linear taillamps that
are almost two feet in length for maximum visibility when braking or signaling
a turn. The highly polished full wheel covers include the Continental Star
emblem stamped into the center of the cover.
A new Continental Star emblem on the deck lid is hinged to conceal the
trunk lock on Sedan and Coupé models. A new exterior, remoted control
key-operated switch opens and closes the rear deck lid on the Convertible,
eliminating the need to enter the car and turn on the ignition to access
the luggage compartment. This switch is conveniently located just to the
rear of the fuel filler access door on the left rear fender.
The Lincoln luggage compartment is fit for the finest luggage. Comprising
18 cubic feet of usable space, the trunk is fully lined and carpeted, and
is automatically lit whenever the deck lid is open. The Convertible offers
12 cubic feet of luggage space with the top in the raised position.
