I posted some pictures of a green 73 LTD a few weeks back that I had purchased. Well that car is now gone, replaced by this 73 LTD. It is a one owner, original paint, 53k orig. miles, california car. It is an identical twin in colors & engine to the 73 LTD my family had when I was a kid. I had a lot of childhood memories in that car & this one is like going back in time. It has a 429 4-barrel V8, power windows, factory stereo & NO RUST!

What a beautifull car! My Grandfather had a 73 Brougham he purchased new. I rode in it all the time back in the seventies. Those cars were actually quite a status symbol back then. Must be very rare with a 429.

I just picked up a 72 Convertible that is the same colors.

Good luck what a find!

Thanks David. 1973 was actually the last year for the 429 V8 in the LTD.

Oh man, it looks practically new! What a great find. Congrats! I had a '76 LTD that I really regret selling. Mine had the 400cid V8, which wasn't nearly as strong as your 429. Enjoy!
