A little on a pricy side as I'm sure most here will say. Still, looks like a very nice car.

Original Old School Cool “Men In Black” car, this 1979 Ford LTD sedan a real time capsule. The LTD was staple in the American automotive experience, and this car is 42 years old, factory original, and is as good and clean as it gets.
At 49,000 miles the car shows outstanding original in all areas including interior, original exterior paint, original trim, chrome, steel wheels with moon cap wheel covers (all 4) and so on.
The paint is all original, wonderfully preserved, and you can still see the orange peel finish in the factory paint. Flawless chrome bumpers front and back. It really is too good to be true.
Interior carpet and upholstery are bright red and undamaged in any way, again rarely driven over the last 40 years, and never in winter. Not a scratch, crack or blemish on dash or upholstery, and nothing faded from sunlight. Factory Ziebart rust-proofing throughout chasis and body.
This sedan came with all the comfort upgrades of the day, including AM/FM Radio, power windows and door locks, power steering and power brakes, Cruise control, and A/C, which was charged with original R12 and blows extremely cold on the hottest days of summer.
This is a two-owner classic that was purchased by a collector in the 1980’s and put in storage until he passed away and his widow sold his collection, where I purchased the car and got it back up and running, including:
• New brake lines and brakes all around; fuel line & sending unit rebuilt
• Re-cored radiator and cooling system flush
• A/C (freezing cold) loaded with original R12
• Rear Air shocks
The car is powered by its original 302 V8 (5.0 Mustang engine), automatic transmission and rear wheel drive. The car runs great, engine and trans strong, and is ready for immediate use. The only thing more I would do to the car would be to upgrade the carburetor from a 2 bbl to 4 bbl to maximize the power of that engine and intensify fuel flow.
The heart of the LTD is the 5.0-liter High Output V8. This is a legend in American performance for delivering plenty of power in a stout package. This car rivals the “box Chevy Caprice, 9C1, Cadillac Fleetwood, and cousin of the Crown Victoria and Mercury Grand Marquis.
No matter what the car is, low mile originals are always a good investment and are always sought after. The capture automotive design and history in its purest form.
This is a rare fast Ford is a rare find, especially all-original with such low miles. Will consider offers, but please don’t contact me with low-ball offers outside of the very generous $5,500."
