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.
