    Sweet rig. 4 wheel disc? Did they come with that, or was that added later...

    Either way, the price is right.

    In '78 (and maybe '77 as well), 4-wheel discs were an option - part of the trailer-tow package I believe. Too bad the option didn't survive when the LTD was downsized for '79.

    Ah. But I thought the Fox body LTDs had discs on the LX package? I could be mistaken.

    This isn't a 'Fox' body. This is the BIG Ford........
    And the only 'Fox' bodies that got 4-wheel discs were the SVO and 'Cobra' Mustangs, IIRC. But you can very easily swap a disc rear end from a Mustang into a 'Fox' wagon......

    FYI.....Ford 'Fox' wagon identification:

    Ford Fairmont/ Mercury Zephyr - 'FOX' wagon? Yes
    [​IMG]

    Ford Granada / Mercury Cougar wagons - 'FOX' wagon? Yes
    [​IMG]

    Ford LTD / Mercury Marquis wagons - 'FOX' wagon? Yes
    (NOTE: Don't get confused by the name. If the vehicle says 'LTD Crown Victoria' or 'GRAND Marquis', it's NOT this wagon....)
    [​IMG]

    Ford Crown Victoria wagon / Country Squire wagon and Mercury Grand Marquis Colony Park wagons - 'FOX' wagon? NO! (They're bigger than the 'Fox' wagons)

    The 'FOX' platform is a unitized body. The larger 'Panther' vehicles (Crown Vic and Colony Park) are full, separate perimeter frame vehicles.
