Had a 74, a green one. You could fit a couple half barrels in the trunk :)

Bought it as it sits-minus the rims/tires. Drove it back from KC-MO and it got 17 (mpg not gpm :lol: ). needs a lil bodywork, dents and dings.

Those are good cars, I think LTD's are about to get a lot more recognition along with many of the underappreciated cars from the 70's.
granted most of the cars from the 70's ( especially 74 to about 79) were total crap, but there were some gems
