Step inside Ford's Special Products Division in Allen Park, Michigan (1956-1957) building the Continental Mark II—America's most exclusive luxury car that cost $10,000 when a new house cost $11,000.
This documentary shows the complete Mark II production process: Hand-selected steel panels inspected under fluorescent lights for flaws, precision body assembly with hand-fitted doors and panels, leather hides individually matched for color and grain, 368 cubic inch Lincoln V8 engine hand-balanced and tested, three coats of hand-rubbed lacquer paint, and final inspection where each car was road-tested for 15 miles before delivery.
Only 2,994 Mark IIs built. Ford lost $1,000 on every single car sold. The most prestigious American automobile ever produced—built not for profit, but for prestige.
