The Ford LTD II was a mid-size car built by the Ford Motor Company between 1977 and 1979 for the North American market. It was based on the Ford Torino, which it effectively replaced, and used the same platform as the concurrent Ford Thunderbird, which was down-sized for 1977. The 2-door coupe replaced the Ford Elite, which was a Ford Torino derivative designed to compete with the popular Chevrolet Monte Carlo.

A two-door coupe and four-door sedan were available in all three model years, and a four-door station wagon was offered for 1977 only. It was also the platform for the final Ford Ranchero. 1971 Ford LTD convertible The Ford LTD is a car model name that has been used by the Ford Motor Company both in North America and Australia. ...
