1982 Ford LTD

The 1982 Ford LTD is part of the third generation of the LTD series, which debuted in 1979, retaining its reputation for comfort and style. The vehicle is equipped with a standard 302 cu in (5.0 L) V8 engine, with optional 351 cu in (5.8 L) V8 engines primarily allocated for police vehicles. It typically features an automatic transmission, with a 4-speed AOD overdrive becoming standard across all engine options. The design showcases sharp-edged styling, highlighted by exposed rectangular headlamps and a wide grille, available in two-door and four-door pillared sedan configurations as well as a five-door station wagon. The LTD Crown Victoria serves as the flagship model, marked by a distinctive brushed aluminum band on the B-pillar and roof. Noteworthy for 1982 is the introduction of the Ford Blue Oval emblem on the grille and trunk lid, along with an optional trip computer to monitor fuel consumption.
