Gateway Classic Cars of Scottsdale is pleased to present this
well-preserved 1981 Ford LTD Crown Victoria 4-door sedan for sale
right now in our Arizona showroom, located in North Phoenix. This
vehicle is a Panther Ford, an automobile platform used by the
Detroit manufacturer for its full-size sedans from 1979 to 2011.
Featuring body-on-frame construction, rear-wheel-drive and V8
power, Panther Platform Fords like this LTD proved to be exactly
what the American consumer was looking for. The Crown Victoria was
the top trim level for LTD's in 1981 and featured a desirable
Landau roof- colored in the same Beige as the exterior paint on
this car. Chrome front and rear bumpers give the LTD an elegant
look. There were three engine options for 1981- all V8's- and this
car still has its original 302 CID (5.0l) Windsor engine with a
under 62,000 actual miles on the odometer. That's less than 1,600
average miles traveled per year on this 39-year-old vehicle! A mild
exhaust upgrade composing of Mustang headers flowing into a Police
Interceptor dual pipe system has been installed (original exhaust
manifolds available with sale). The 4-speed automatic transmission
shifts as smooth as butter and the overdrive gear provides good
highway economy. The roomy and well-appointed interiors of the
Crown Victoria are what really drove sales numbers- a comfortable
Brown cloth bench seat, column shift transmission, tilt wheel,
climate control and AM/FM radio was exactly what practical car
buyers were looking for and to this day the materials and
components have held up remarkably well. Indeed, despite changes to
exterior styling the Panther Platform interiors changed very little
over their 33-year production period. This 1981 Ford LTD Crown
Victoria for sale is a time capsule, daily driver and a classic car
all in one. This is an excellent ownership opportunity for all the
above reasons and more! Give our helpful and knowledgeable Sales
staff a call at (623) 900-4884 to find out how to get this vehicle
in your driveway before someone else does! Alternatively we can be
