I always liked these as well. my sister used to have a white one a little old lady used to own. She drove it through college up until she got married and replaced it with a new Camry.

My buddy had one as his first car. Lots of adventures in that, on and off road, until the 3.8 blew its headgaskets.

I've always wanted a LTD LX. The girlfriend doesn't understand why I would want a boxy 80's 4 door :giggle:

I always wanted to see what the Futura would look like with the LTD nose! Cool ride!

THAT is a nice car.

I've seen these cars with Mustang front clips on them and the overall look was great.

Any of the Fairmont body cars (Fairmont/Zephyr, 81-82 Granada/Cougar sedans and 1983-85 LTD/Marquis) are easy to swap bolt on front clips ... I would never go to the trouble of making a Mustang nose fit as that takes pure fabrication and you really don't get that much of a different look than the four-eyed look of the 83-86 LTD which simply bolts into place.  It's interesting the different combinations of looks you can come up with. It's even more interesting that many of the Fox platform cars can switch instrument panels around.

i'm going to check to see if the car i started this thread about is still available, if it is i think i'm going to buy it and make it my new DD...

probably swap the engine from the bird into it, convert to mass air, finish porting the e7's i picked up a while back, and put the wheels off the bird on it too.

 be fun blowing the doors off the imports in a an old 4 door box on wheels....

t-bird will be getting a 351w or 460 if i pull it's heart for the LTD, so it's a win-win
