ALL ABOUT THE CAR
1979 Ford LTD Brougham
• Colour: Blue/Grey
The 1979 Ford LTD Brougham is a full-size American luxury sedan that embodies the look and feel of late-1970s to mid-1980s middle-class America. With its long, squared-off body lines, upright grille, and plush interior, the LTD Brougham brings authenticity to period pieces without drawing attention away from principal action—making it ideal as a background, character, or law-enforcement vehicle.
This particular model captures the era’s understated luxury: chrome trim, generous cabin space, and the unmistakable presence of a classic body-on-frame sedan. Its neutral styling allows it to blend into suburban, urban, or government settings from the late ’70s through early ’90s.
How This Vehicle Can Be Used On Screen
Police or Government Fleet Vehicle: The LTD Brougham’s imposing size and traditional styling made it a staple in police departments and municipal fleets across the U.S. Example Uses:
