DESCRIPTION:
Ford's large cars have always proved popular as an everyday vehicle. 1965 was the year of the restyle, but the most important fact was the 427 engine. Copied by Plymouth and American Motors, Ford then put in a much less economic 7-litre V8. Models covered include Starliner, Town Sedan, 500, 500Xl, Fastback, Convertible, Ltd, Ltd 428, Ltd 429, Ltd 390, Brougham, Wagon, Landau, Ltd Town Car. On the plus side, for a large car, they are relatively economical and agile. The Galaxie 500Xl provided for those who wanted a sports car and the Ltd was built for luxury. However, one comment throughout the years has been that controls have been difficult to use. By the early seventies the big cars were still grabbing a large part of Ford's sales.. This is a book of contemporary road and comparison tests, new model introductions, long term reports, design analysis, used survey and technical data
