Over the course of about 20 years, the LTD name filtered through dozens of family Fords. It started as an unexpected Luxury version of the regular Ford, but beginning in 1968 it began to gradually take over the whole big Ford universe. The LTD, being a family car, is less well remembered than the Mustang or Bronco today, but the idea kick-started the “Brougham” concept, a regular car that was gilded like a luxury machine and priced within reach of mass-market buyers. The first LTD debuted in 1965, and by the time this ‘68 was built, had inspired imitators from GM, Chrysler, and even AMC. The original #FordLTD of 1965 had come as a surprise to both buyers and critics. A new top trim on the Galaxie, it was not substantively different from the other big Fords in any mechanical respect. Nor was it the most expensive big Ford, that honor fell to the mighty Galaxie 7-Litre. But it was about $400-500 more than the regular Galaxie, enough to buy a good used car in those days. Tor that money buyers got lots of differences they could see and feel - namely special cloth, deep carpets, vinyl tops, special badges, and lots of gear. There had always been loaded big Fords, but the LTD, sprung from the market-reading mind of Lee Iacocca, was specifically sold on “luxury,” with Lincoln-like extras. Costing little more to build than the humble Ford Custom it was a low-overhead, high-profit recipe, like GMC’s Yukon Denali today. More than 100K were sold in ‘65, and it became its own nameplate in 1967. By then it had inspired Chevy’s Caprice, Plymouth’s VIP, and AMC’s Ambassador DPL. The LTD would evolve quickly in the late 1960s as Ford moved to expand the concept. In 1968, the car was heavily restyled even though a complete redesign would be introduced for 1969, and the LTD started to branch out, with some formerly standard bits being reworked into the “LTD Brougham” package. The ‘68 look previewed some of the changes for 1969, but as a result of that new design, the 1968 models are rather unique, with some of the older elements and some of the newer ones, like hidden headlamps. Future LTDs would splinter into many more variations, and by 1976 all big Fords were LTDs. (at Juanita Beach Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/CLhqq3vli_S/?igshid=11w13ci3jfczz

The original #FordLTD of 1965 had come as a surprise to both buyers and critics. A pricey option package on the Galaxie, it added features and creature comforts, but was substantively not very different from the regular Galaxies. There had always been loaded big Fords, but the LTD, sprung from the market-reading mind of Lee Iacocca, was specifically sold on “luxury,” with Lincoln-like extras added to the “standard” Ford. It was low-overhead, high-profit recipe that really resonated and quickly spawned imitators at AMC, GM, and Chrysler. When the big Fords were redesigned in 1969, the LTD overtook the Galaxie as Ford’s most popular car, amazing for what had been seen as a “limited” luxury item four years earlier. The key to the LTD’s success, of course, was that it was perceived as a luxury car but sold at a relatively plebeian price. As its popularity grew, Ford gradually de-emphasized the Galaxie and Custom lines. After OPEC, they would fade away in favor of flavors of LTD that corresponded to the former names (LTD, LTD Brougham, LTD Landau), diluting the “luxury” nature of the idea. The car was updated in 1971 and only slightly changed in 1972, which is when this LTD was built. More than 800K big Fords were built that year - 60+% of them LTDs. They were big and opulent cars - on a 121” (3.1M) wheelbase and 216” (5.5M) long. They had big V8s (and small V8s too, from 302-429cid) and loads of power and comfort options, but little thought was given to efficiency, which wasn’t a factor when the cars were designed. The huge sales of 1972 were followed by an extensive re-skin and even bigger sales in 1973. Sales took a huge hit because of OPEC 1, but came back for a January thaw in the late 1970s, until OPEC 2. By 1980, the earlier LTDs were just old cars and around in huge supply. Their resale values sank like a stone in the early 1980s thanks to age and thirst, but they represented (and still are) a huge bargain. A ‘71 LTD is featured in Stranger Things, and accurately depicted as the kind of car a high school kid might drive in 1983 (or 1993). This ‘72, undergoing a long running resto, was captured in 2015 but looks more like a typical scene from the 90s. https://www.instagram.com/p/CAQi0SxFeWY/?igshid=2ufk58ctpjr
