- Summary: nice looker, comfy chair, needs engine work
-
-
-
- 1982 Ford LTD Crown Victoria, light blue, never crashed.
- V8 5.0-liter engine, automatic 4-speed. Around 100,000 miles.
-
- Asking price: $500 or best offer. Must sell soon!
-
- Originally supposed to be an unmarked police vehicle, but it ended
- up owned by private citizens. Great road-trip or carpool car,
- because it seats 5 people + their luggage comfortably. Great car to
- help when your friends are moving, too. And you will feel invulnerable
- in traffic, surrounded by so much steel.
-
- Lots Of Cool Features:
- Full power steering, power brakes, power locks, power windows, power seat.
- AM/FM/Cass, equilizer.
- Police driver's-side spotlight, police pursuit lights behind grill
- (but they're disconnected since it's illegal to use them :-).
- A very smooth, quiet ride. Definitely AmeriBarge-style luxury.
- Upholstery all in great condition. Paint in good condition.
-
- New:
- Distributor, engine wires, coil, air filter, pcv valve, fuel filter.
- Flushed the radiator and refilled it with coolant.
-
- On The Downside:
- Intake manifold is cracked.
- Mechanic says it needs new carburator.
- Power wires to the stereo need to be identified and reconnected.
- Passenger side door armrest is broken (but door still works fine).
- Gas mileage is about 12mpg in city driving, about 25mpg highway.
- Air conditioner pump is nonfunctional, needs new bearings.
- Glove compartment somehow refuses to open.
