1973 Lincoln Contintental Mark IV

Thanks to the first oil crisis, the price of gasoline in the US increased 47% between 1972 and 1974. What a perfect time to buy a car that only gets 10 miles to the gallon.

Observations:
* The monster 460 c.i. V-8 engine under that hood produces 212 hp. That's 56 hp less than today's Toyota V-6.
* This car was available with anti-lock brakes (!)
* Brown, brown, brown. It's must be the 70s.
