54A if sedan; 75A if hardtop "Landau." (Continental Mark V Landau hardtops outsold four-door Mark V sedans by a difference of almost 5800 units. -- Last edit: 2008-12-17 20:39:31 |

Let's call this one a hardtop, okay? Will wait for dissent. |

No dissent - it is a hardtop (no fixed "B" pillars). -- Last edit: 2009-08-13 19:34:33 |

actually it does look like the Sedan model.... The "B" pillars were a bolt on item, and were very very thin. I own a 1960 Lincoln Premiere 4 dr Sedan, and once owned a 1960 Continental Mark V Limousine... (one of 34 built)... and both of these cars have the pencil thin "B" pillar. |

Does this car have the same retractable rear window like the 59 Merc Turnpike Cruiser? The roofline is the same. |

^Well there's no such thing as a 1959 Mercury Turnpike Cruiser, and the 1957 Turnpike Cruiser utilized a forward slanting retractable rear window. But yes the rear window on the 58-60 Lincoln Marks did retract; and later this feature was used in the 63-66 Mercury models equipped with the breeezway window. |

I believe the '67 (and possibly '68) Mercurys also had rear windows that could be lowered, but owing to the fact they weren't reverse slant, they would only move down an inch or so to allow for some extra ventilation. |

^ Yes but being of a different configuration I omitted the forward slanting breezways of 67/68. Plus opening only two inches the windows didn't really help vent hot air that much. |
