ever saw a LTD with a wing well this is the wing that i had mounted on my blue LTD when it comes time for paint i will paint two boot lids one with the wing and one without so depending on mood i can swap wing and a prayer or keep it looking stock

this is my old 72 LTD GALAXIE sedan 400 clev 2V auto yes the wheels spent some time on this car bought as a stop gap when i started on blue convertible cannot remember why i sold it had some rust but ran well was reliable paint was shocking original colour of car was red with beige vinyl roof when i pulled heads to replace blown gasket it had standard bore do not think motor had ever been apart new owner has since replaced timing chain and gears will try and find fotos of what it looks like now

this is what she looks like now you will notice the bonnet does not fit correctly this because it is off a left hand drive car (my old blue convert ) to fit the Australian rhd cars bonnet requires modification to clear wipers easy way is a big hammer must look at how Ford did the modification on the bonnet scoop on bonnet was to cover big hole i cut to clear air filter as it sat to high for original bonnet to close the green bonnet on new car was replacement i got from a friend when he wrecked his sedan a very clean rust free original
