I saw an Alanis Morisette Video on TV earlier - Ironic - and in this video there is a car, what is it?

I can only find an internal picture of it.

Oval opera window. Gotta be FoMoCo.

Looks like a 2-door.

Either a T-bird or a Mark IV.

 

[mccombie_5]

I thought that

I also thought it MAY be a dodge, i remember the outside styling, the front was very square, i dont know about the back. It was a coupe, yes.

 

[Krashed989]

Yup, gotta be the mark IV

 

[Katshot]

That's a Lincoln alright.

 

[mccombie_5]

THe rear window is a different shape

 

[Krashed989]

wait let me see if I can get it the right year...

oops my bad it's the mark V

 

[mccombie_5]

Thats the one!

Its gotten to me for years

Interior looked nice on the video

 

[mccombie_5]

I also remembered the three vents behind the front wheel

It looked just like this

 

[mccombie_5]

Sorry to triple post, but what were those Opera windows for? I mean, they look good on that car, but where do they originate?

 

[urbanski]

That is a 77-79 Mark V

One of my dream cars...

a very smooth automobile, a pimpmobile if you will

 

[mccombie_5]

Yeah, I'd drive one just because of that interior, I love it, Im not sure why.

Now that IS interesting.

I actually like them, they do look good on that car.

Were they fitted to any of FoMoCo's sedans?

 

[Elvis]

I think there was a Continental 4-door with opera windows, But I'm not sure.

Maybe I'm thinking early 80's Town Car?

 

[I~LUV~Caddys8792]

Yeah the 1980-83 Lincoln Mark VI was a Coupe and a sedan.

 

[mccombie_5]

Here it is

Looks good, which is novel for a car of the early 80s!

How odd that I was just listening to "Ironic" when I stumbled across this thread. And for years I also wondered what kind of car she was in.

 

[I~LUV~Caddys8792]

That is very IRONIC
