I have looked and looked at the Mark III photos....
Each one puzzled me. My mom had the bronze 1970 version back in the 70's. I just realized that the car is missing the Lincoln ornament on top of the chrome grill. Is this an oversight, or since the model was based on the 69 which did not have the ornament. To me it just looks naked without the ornament. Thoughts?

Most Mark III's did not have a hood ornament. I think it might have been a dealer installed option.
They were standard on the 72 Mark IV.

Yes, the "pole" hood ornament was a 1 of 1 option. Only on the USSBB. LOL.

Hood is fine. Thats the way they came in '69-'71.

Jerry, I suspect your UPS delivery person is probably wearing some warmer clothing this time of year.
