Commander 57 ◊ 2010-03-23 16:59	Again we correct this mis-impression. There was no such thing as a "1968" Mark III. All of the first Mark III's were VIN-coded as 1969 models. Changing to '69.
timmm55 ◊ 2012-09-28 01:50	Like the 64 1/2 Mustang (they were registered as 65s) there are some differences bewteen them. In a 68 1/2 Mark III and a 69 the differnces were: steering wheel, knobs, some added colors and options, covered seat belt anchors, and the Cartier clock.
Commander 57 ◊ 2012-09-28 03:58	Then those were running changes during the long 1969 model year.
LateNight ◊ 2015-06-23 00:24	No, those are the differences between a '68 1/2 and a '69. Some people are just too stubborn to accept that. All the cars are registered as '69's only for legal brevity.
Commander 57 ◊ 2015-06-23 03:33	But the VIN code is what establishes a given model year. And Ford Motor Company never referred to these cars as "1968" or "1968 1/2" Lincoln Continentals.
jettalover ◊ 2015-06-23 03:42	Commander put it perfectly. Running changes during a (annoying for this website) long 1969 model year. Just like the long 1965 model year for the Mustang. Perhaps Ford made running changes during the long 1991 model year for the Explorer.
jettalover ◊ 2015-06-23 03:43	I don't know if legalities had anything to do with it. Perhaps just simplicity.
Skid ◊ 2024-03-02 03:17	Per IMDB trivia, this car was later reused as a studio "cut-away" rear-projection car during a fictional film shoot in an episode of Columbo: /vehicle.php?id=1034698#Comment3509179 It likely was actually used as a real rear-projection car on other productions, as well.
