For 1971 the Marquis underwent a revision of the exterior and interior, and the convertible body style was dropped along with the Marauder fastback. It introduced the pillared hardtop, a sedan combining a thin B pillar and frameless door glass to mimic a pillarless design, along with fender skirts and wraparound taillamps. The dashboard was redesigned to cluster the instruments and controls closer to the steering wheel. The Marquis was the counterpart of the Ford LTD and shared its chassis with the full size Ford.
