The rock and roll and the old good ford Ltd. What a great concept

I like the Cold. And this AMAZING car. Looks fun. Nice Mountains in the background btw. Greetings from Germany!

Es hätte nie einen TÜV, also habe ich es dort verkauft. Ich habe jetzt einen alten Mercedes.

My dad had the 74 Ford ltd. I remember in the early 80s him replacing the head unit and upgrading to cassette and adding speakers to the doors. Of course even though he was a country music fan he had to buy a mixed cassette with booming sounding music which included planet Rock.. and that 74 LTD was thumping..

[@michaeleyer64]

my wife bought this car in 2017 after you left, we had a lot of great memories with it!

Ho visto il tuo video sull' avviamento a freddo di questa e sono contento che tu l'abbia tenuta ancora e non l'abbia data via 😁😁 Proprio come diceva un altro nei commenti sotto questo video, magari qui in Europa e anche in Italia avessimo auto così belle. Salutoni da Italia 🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹😁🍕🍝 spero che tu stia bene e ti auguro tutto il meglio del mondo🤗👋, che Dio ti benedica✝️🙏😁🇮🇹

1:40 first time i see that effect on the road and it looks amazing. This car looks like a beast, wish we had cars like in europe.

Great video. Greetings grom Poland.

[@mit3t0]

Much love! I love it! I can watch one hour of your quick stories about this car! I see the different life you live there!!!!!!!

[@universityofnowhere]

Good for you. I'm 58, in Canada and grew up with them. I would love a 71 or 72 two-door (LTD or Galaxie 500), but would probably get 'keyed' the first time I parked at Walmart. I have a feeling they are gonna make gas harder to get/use in the coming years as well, so I just dream and watch KZbin :) In '89 I drove a 64 Buick Lesabre as my daily and loved it!

[@mati5054]

beautiful 😍 car, snow, place... Amazing Greetings from Argentina!

Thank you, making this brought back so many good memories.

Good old reliable Fords. I’m moving up to Willow Alaska in two years I’m excited to finally get up there. Taking my 94 Toyota 4x4 pickup.

[@DanielLoveReel]

90's Toyota pickups are fantastic, you'll do great.

Would you say the '68 ford country sedan wagon i have (full size) is worth keeping as my dd in montana over getting a 70's Jeep wagoneer? I have my reservations either path i choose. But one thing is certain, i will be in montana by november. I hear the right tires and sometimes chains as needed are good enough but im not confident

how cold is it there?

[@mcdlt8414]

Love it! Ended up moving out of state I assume? Would you try finding something similar to daily drive again for fun?

[@DanielLoveReel]

Of course. I live in Germany currently and drive a 1975 Mercedes 280S. It's not quite as big but shares some of that big 70s car spirit.

[@mcdlt8414]

@@DanielLoveReel Hey Dan, what's the scoop with this car? I read further down that you got it for a $1000. Did it need any work to get back on the road? What motor was in the car, and did it cause you any grief over the course of you owning it? Would love to hear any cool stories about it. All the best to you in Germany!

[@vina_colada]

LOL daddy did remember you drift?!

With that car in Alaska, drifting was never optional.

[@jeanettewest]

I worked on that road when it was being straightened out. It used to be called, "The Road of A Thousand Curves", and would take four to five hours to get from Seward to Anchorage. 1979-1981. Still live here, but in the Bush. Get to Anchorage about every four months or so. It's turned into a real third-world shithole.

[@tylerhopkins7080]

what's going on in Anchorage, there a lot of crime now? is that what you mean?

[@jeanettewest]

@@tylerhopkins7080 Carpetbaggers from kalifornika, gangs, and the women who cannot speak English working in Walmart who walk away from you when you need a question answered. Seriously, it just is not the same nice place to live it used to be. Started changing around 1988 or so when Mayor Fink ordered the police to call gangs "groups of youths" because his head was inserted to deeply into his anus to accept what was happening to the town. Yup, I go in for a week and can't wait to get back to Alaska, which is only 30 minutes away by air.

[@jt93308]

Daniel - sweet ride. Wire hanging out front of bumper - is that a block heater? Also - out of curiosity - what weight motor oil do you run?

[@DanielLoveReel]

The wire was a block heater. The oil was whatever the guys at Dean's automotive put in there. They had a good mechanic who would work on old cars.

Aren't you afraid of getting a classic like this scratched? :-)

[@huskypoop4917]

how did you come to own this car ?

[@DanielLoveReel]

I was living in Anchorage and this one popped up on craigslist just past Wasilla. My old gold VW bug had catastrophic engine failure a few months earlier and I had an 80s Subaru that wasn't all that interesting but worked for the time being. The guy had the LTD in good running condition (though the body was pretty rough) so I jumped on it. It had some small mechanical issues here and there but never needed too much. I sold it before I left for Germany because it was never going to pass the German inspection without insane amounts of money put into it. We put a lot of miles on it and it was usually a delight to own and drive.
