The only car I did not like we had was a 1980 Lincoln Continetal, that car puffed up and down. I felt like I was getting into a space ship:) and one had to remember his long code of numbers in the door to even get in the darn thing

I thought the 1962 Lincoln Continental, with the suicide doors, drove like a dream. The Lincolns and the Cadillacs both started going down in the '80's.
