The 1974 LTD
 
No big changes to the LTD from 73 to 74.  The grille earned a few more horizotal lines while the LTD emblem made its way to be a hood ornament.  The engines still where the 351W, 400,  and 460, and the 429 was no longer available.  The Brougham seats were no longer high back, gaining a lower profile.
