1977 Ford Custom 500

The 1977 Ford Custom 500 is a full-size vehicle that was part of Ford’s lineup, designed to offer a more basic alternative to the LTD series. Notable features for this model year include its availability as a four-door pillared hardtop, which offers a distinct aesthetic. It typically comes equipped with V8 engine options, such as the 302, 351, or 400 CID variants, often paired with an automatic transmission for convenience. While there were no significant styling changes from the previous year, optional features such as four-wheel disc brakes and an 8-track player were available, enhancing its appeal. For identification, look for the pillared hardtop design and the absence of the luxury trim elements typically found on higher-end LTD models. Although less widely available in the U.S., the Custom 500 served as an accessible base model option, particularly in Canada.
