Ford LTD 400 V8 1972

Allmän beskrivning : SUPER CLEAN & DRIVES EXCELLENT! 400 V8, COLD A/C, GREAT PAINT! SMOOTH POWER TOP!

Here's one stylish vintage, droptop cruiser sure to make everyone look twice. Already a rare sight in convertible form, this 1972 Ford LTD is dressed in a great color combination and is running great. It's been very well maintained and benefits from a bevy of newly installed parts that will allow this awesome-looking ride to provide miles and miles of cruising enjoyment well into the future.
The yellow exterior is absolutely smile-inducing. On a sunny day with its convertible top down, you can just picture a carload full of happy occupants inside as it ably cruises highway or boulevard. Combine the great hue with a very well applied clearcoat and you'll see a nice even shine, no matter your vantage point. A lot of care has also gone into making sure its 45-plus years of service haven't taken their toll and, as you take a lap around, you'll notice that everything lines up nicely and the doors open and shut smoothly. Take a look at the upper and lower trim running along the sides and notice how evenly it matches up from fender to door to quarter panel. During less appealing weather, the white convertible top will present itself in very good condition to provide shelter. This is a great example of '70s automotive styling, with its long broad hood, ornate front grille and extensive use of chrome all over. Appropriately for a car so well-preserved, it remains in its stock stance - low to the ground and level.
Take a look inside and you'll see a great by-product of this LTD's generous proportions - an exceedingly roomy and comfortable white vinyl interior inviting you to bring your friends along, as there's more than enough space on those expansive front and back bench seats for everyone. Just below the seating, the expanse of contrasting black carpeting still looks fresh and only lightly used. A lot of important details in the interior have been looked after and that attention has paid dividends. In addition to a quiet ride that belies all its years of duty - certainly helped along by the addition of new seals in the doors and windows - the new A/C system is in fine form to keep passengers comfortable and, with its new hydraulics, the convertible top raises and lowers without incident. The gauges in the well-preserved black and wood patterned dash are all easily readable through clear lenses, and the original AM/FM stereo sitting front and center is still in working condition. An original 1972 Owner's Manual sits securely in the glove box to provide testimony to the car's great history.
In the spacious engine compartment sits its original 400 cubic inch V8. Topped by a 4-barrel carb, it's an upgrade over the 351s that LTDs were more commonly equipped with. Bolted to a 3-speed automatic transmission, it runs smoothly and quietly. A number of essential components, including the alternator, master brake cylinder, shocks and bushings, have been replaced to further instill all the confidence you need that this vintage ride is plenty roadworthy - even for lengthier excursions. Power brakes on all four corners - discs in front - provide the stopping power you'll want, and the still-smooth power steering system makes navigating this sizable car a breeze. This very cool vintage droptop sits on a set of 15" stock LTD rims wrapped in new Hankook tires with miles of tread life still in front of them.
In the market for a great looking vintage convertible cruiser that stands ready and able to take you on miles and miles of open air excitement? You have to check out this 1972 Ford LTD Convertible. Call today!

om Ford
Ford, som grundades 1902, har utan tvekan förändrat historien om bilvärlden mer än någon annan biltillverkare genom att införa de första folkbilen Modell T 1908. De hade producerat mer än 15 miljoner bilar i slutet av produktionen 1927, genom vilket T hade blivit föråldrade.

Ford lanserade den första lågpris V8-motor driven bil 1932. 1932 V8 var en omedelbar hit med överlägsen hantering och prestanda för många betydligt mer expansiva bilar av dagen. Inte undra på 32 V8 Ford har blivit en sådan favorit bland heta rodders runt om i världen med 32 Deuce Coupe som sin ikon.

Under kriget Ford helt stänga civil bilproduktionen att ägna alla sina resurser till de allierade krigsansträngningarna (1942-1945) De används för att bygga B-24 bombplan, flygmotorer, jeepar, M-4 stridsvagnar, militära lastbilar och Bren-gun bärare och mer än 30.000 super laddade Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 motorer till Mosquito och Lancaster bombplan samt P-51 Mustang fighters. Efter kriget Ford bilar i USA blev större och flashier tillsammans med sina konkurrenter. I 60: s Ford var tillbaka i förgrunden igen när man inför deras kommersiella hit Mustang 1964. Mustang var så populär tävlingen var tvungen att följa Fords exempel och ponycar fenomenet tog över USA. Under åren ponnyer växte några muskler tills oljekrisen döda äntligen dödat dem.

På sextiotalet rusade Ford i internationell motorsport scenen med en raseri. Efter misslyckade Ferrari övertagande, då Enzo Ferrari hade klippt affären av med Henry Ford II gör det senare absolut koka av vrede, vände Ford till Lola i Storbritannien för att producera en Ferrari slog långdistans racer efter. Samarbetet mellan Ford och Lola skapade den mäktiga Ford GT40 som absolut slog Ferrari i Le Mans 24 flera gånger.

I Europa införde Ford några av de mest episka race och rallybilar av 60-talet som bygger på ödmjuka familj sedaner; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, och Escort 1600RS med de ikoniska Cosworth BDA motorer.

Idag klassiska Fords är mycket populär bland entusiaster och ett stort urval av klassiska Fords finns till försäljning på www.ClassicDigest.com
