This is a customized Lincoln Continental Mark IV called:

1973 Titan

And it was sold by Underwriters Auto Leasing Co. of Beverly Hills, CA.
Are these information enough to get the point??

I was afraid this wouldn't last very long...

Apparently it was designed by George Barris..

FWIW:  The Titan is based on the Ford Thunderbird.  The Thunderbird and Continental Mk IV looked quite similar in 1973.  Interior photos of the Titan clearly show round instrument surrounds from a Thunderbird dash.  A Mk IV would have square instruments.

The Barris version of a Continental Mark IV was called the Bugazzi.
