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.
