In reality I would cruise any of them proudly but if forced I’d pick to DD the Caddy, cruise the Lincoln and burn the Chrysler.

DD: Eldorado (screw the DeVille)

C: Mark III

Wouldn’t even need to burn the Chrysler, everyone crushed all of them years ago.

Kill the Caddy, DD the Newport and track the Lincoln (for the LOLz)

The imperial would be a better choice than the Newport, as it wasn’t really in the same price bracket as the Continental or Coupe Deville.

DD Lincoln

Cruise Cadillac

Burn Newport.

But if you included the Imperial...

DD Imperial

Cruise Cadillac (with hydraulics)

Burn Lincoln.

I know but the 68 Imperial is too ugly for my taste

Cruise: Newport ( HELLCAT SWAP YO )

Interesting idea

If they were all 1970 models.... hm. Best year for most of them, I think.

DD the Newport (least obnoxious)

Cruise the Cadillac (pretty handsome)

Burn the Lincoln (it brought on all the terrible 70’s and 80’s styling disasters)

You are probably right on that

The Lincoln is the best looking, the Chrysler the most bland and the Cadillac the most gaudy.

I would cruise the Lincoln since I like it the best and want to keep it nice, DD the Chrysler since apparently, Chryslers back then were better quality and burn the Cadillac.

I didn’t think the Lincoln looked that terrible

It isn’t that bad in and of its self, it’s just a preview of the bad things to come.

The Mustang II was horrible. And I will agree the Mark V styling sucked

daender > JR1
08/21/2015 at 23:13

I gonna guess it weighs about 3,850 pounds , which is 600 pounds lighter than a Hellcat, so weld in some additional bracing, wider tires, and some sort of rear-end traction trick be it slapper bars, traction bars, or a torque arm for an epic straight-line cruise missile.

JR1 > daender
08/21/2015 at 23:16

I’m sure someone somewhere will make that swap

Burn the Lincoln, cruise the Caddy, DD the Newport.

DD the Chrysler

Cruise the Coupe Deville

Burn a full size wooden replica of the Lincoln, while secretly stashing it in my three car garage with the Caddy and Chrysler.

I actually think that for these luxo-barges, 71 was the best year because of the switch to unleaded gas, because of the drop in compression ratios allows you to fill up with regular, but 70 would be the pinnacle performance wise.

The Newport is fantastic. I find the other two ugly.

So burn them both?

08/22/2015 at 09:19

I would be okay with just selling them to someone who appreciates that kind of ugly.

Also, Newport with a diesel swap would be epic for long distance driving. Hide some modern stereo equipment so you can BT or USB your phone and play some pimp tunes while you class-up the highway.

Why can I not have the money for these things!?

I wasn’t expecting that either. But it might have come with a manual... Not sure

Meh, these cars shouldn’t have manuals.

Automatics were the “desirable” high end option remember.
