Here we have a 1978 Ford LTD II 4 Door Pillar Hard Top for sale.
This is a gorgeous survivor piece that's showing just over 20,000
miles. A truly remarkable find, this car is just as nice as the day
it was bought new. In the paragraphs to follow we will give a brief
description of the exterior, interior, and heartbeat of this
Chevrolet but first we would like to tell you a little about

We will start off with the exterior of this LTD II. The body on
this car is stunning as it doesn't show any signs of damage or
abuse. Down the sides all the body lines are perfect, and the fit
of all the doors, hood, and trunk are equally impressive with every
gap being even and symmetrical. This car is covered in its original
Dove Gray paint that still has a gorgeous finish. It's accented by
the red dual accent pin stripes along with the factory Dove Gray
vinyl top that's in excellent condition. All of the glass in this
'78 is beautiful and shows little to now wear. Both front and rear
bumpers look to be original as well and still have a brilliant
shine. All the side trim is just as nice along with all the window
trim. This is a stunning vehicle and as you walk around it your
appreciation will only continue to grow. To finish off the look
it's sitting on the 14" Wheels with Hub Caps and White Wall
Tires.
Next, we will look at the interior of this '78. On the inside it's
stunning to see something so well kept as all the interior looks to
be as close to original as we have ever seen. The Russet Red color
scheme is the perfect accent to the exterior combo and makes for a
gorgeous vehicle inside and out. The bench seat with fold down arm
rest is in phenomenal condition and rides like new. Looking at the
dash we can see it shows no signs of damage or abuse and that the
pad is still soft and has clearly been kept out of the sun. All the
gauges look amazing along with the wood grain accent and they are
working as they should. It has the original steering wheel along
with the original radio. The headliner still has a phenomenal fit
and all the carpet looks amazing and is not worn. Inside the trunk
all looks to be factory and has the original trunk mat and
spare.
Finally, we will get to the driveline of this Ford. Under the hood
it's powered by the 302 V8 engine that is original to the car. It's
a true time capsule under the hood as it looks like it would have
when new in '78. As you can see from the firewall and inner fenders
everything is solid and in excellent condition. The 302 is dressed
in the factory valve covers and air cleaner. We can also see that
it is a factory Air Condition car that is working. It also comes
with Power Steering and Power Brakes with Disc on the front. When
we look under this LTD II it's just as impressive as it has clearly
been extremely well cared for its entire life. All of the floor
pans and frame are solid and in great condition. The 302 V8 runs
through the C4 Automatic Transmission and stock rear end with 2.75
gears. On the highway it runs and drives phenomenal while also
handling with ease. This would be great addition to collect or
cruise.
