For Sale: 1971 Ford LTD in Ft Worth, Texas

Vehicle Description

Almost impossibly scarce in today's market, this 1971 Ford LTD Convertible preserves a slice of American luxury motoring with its stately Light Gold exterior. Only one percent of LTD production that year included the convertible option, making this long, low-slung drop-top a genuine collector's prize. The clean, formal lines extend dramatically from front to rear, topped by a pristinely maintained white vinyl power top with glass rear window. Custom 18" Ridler wheels up front with 20's in the rear, completely transform the car's visual impact, giving this full-size boulevard cruiser an aggressive yet refined stance. Michelin rubber provides the grip, with 245/45ZR18 tires at the front and wider 275/35ZR20 tires at the rear, completing the carefully curated exterior presentation.

The white vinyl interior offers a bright contrast to the exterior and features very rare bucket seats with a beautiful center console between them with a distinctive horseshoe-style floor shifter adding a unique touch to the cabin's layout. Keeping occupants comfortable, the air conditioning blows cold while power steering makes maneuvering this full-size convertible a breeze. The original audio system has been upgraded to a Custom Autosound AM/FM unit with auxiliary input, bringing modern connectivity to this classic cabin. Sound deadening material and new carpeting have been added for enhanced comfort, making this interior both period-correct and enjoyable.

Motivation comes from Ford's 400 cubic inch V8 engine, providing plenty of torque to move this full-size convertible with authority. A C6 3-speed automatic transmission handles shifting duties with smooth operation. The mechanical systems include power front disc brakes for confident stopping power, while a 9-inch rear axle provides proven durability. Underneath, the suspension features coil springs with shocks at all four corners and a sway bar up front to improve handling characteristics. With just 25,818 believed-actual miles, this engine runs as smoothly as it looks, delivering the relaxed cruising experience these grand Ford convertibles were designed for.
