DO NOT PUT AN OFFER IN UNLESS YOU PLAN ON FOLLOWING THROUGH!!!Up for sale is my 1987 Ford Crown Victoria. Upon viewing this car, t becomes apparent that it was very well taken care of. Purchased from Tampa, t spent its life down south, nd the condition of the body and undercarriage support that. After acquiring this vehicle, he only work that was necessary was new battery/starter cables, olenoid and starter. This is not a showroom car! If you are looking for a 99 point car, lease do not continue because you will only be disappointed! It is, owever, xtremely clean for its age and is a pleasure to drive. It gets all the looks from passers-by.I've seen many auctions on here where sellers have a section such as "now for the bad" or "now for what's wrong with it". I can honestly say this vehicle has nothing about it that would warrant such a section in this listing. I've gone over it with a fine tooth comb and ampleasantly surprised with how mechanically sound it is.I'll go over the car the best I can in this description, ut I'm bound to miss something, o I welcome all questions and will answer promptly. If you require other photos, lease ask and they will be provided. If you are local (and even if you are not), welcome you to come inspect the car and drive it. You won't be disappointed.Here we go:
- The engine fires right up and idles down perfect. No idle searching, o stumbling, o repeated attempts to fire.
- Engine, ransmission and rear end exhibit no leaks of any kind. P/S system is tight, ull, nd does not leak. There are no coolant leaks of any kind. Brake fluid is full as it should be with no leaks.
- A/C is ice cold. It has been retro-fitted to accept R-134a. It has been my experience that these systems can be finnicky after a retro-fit unless properly done. This system works as it should and keeps me very cool (we've been having 80+ days here lately).
- Transmission shifts smoothly and engagement from 3 to OD is smooth as well. For those of you familiar with the AOD transmissions, hey can be pretty harsh sometimes from gear 3 to 4. Sometimes, don't even feel it shift.
- Braking system has been inspected with 65-70% life left on all friction surfaces. Rotors and Drums are clean - no scoring or pitting of any kind.
- Tires have roughly 50-65% life on them. They are 15 inch tires and rather inexpensive when needed, ut don't be fooled, hey have plenty of life left on them and show no signs of dry rot or uneven wear.
- The suspension system seems to have new shocks all around. No springs are broken or sagging. Bushings are all there and are quiet. The car rides very well!
- Brand new exhaust from Catalytic Converters back.
Interior:
- I rate at 9/10
- Seats are perfect - no rips or tears, o stains.
- Carpet is nearly perfect. A couple (hardly noticeable) stains on the front section. You'd really have to hunt for them.
- All door panels are intact, othing cracked or broken such as arm rests.
- Dash Pad is cracked around speakers. Pretty standard with these old cars. The rest is in good shape.
Body:
- No rust through anywhere!
- Few minor surface blemishes. You can see these on the decklid to the right of the license plate.
- 2-3 small dings over the entire surface of the car. It really is in rather great condition otherwise. The pictures should speak for themselves.
If there are any other questions, lease ask. I'm open to offers, ut please, o low balling and be reasonable.If you have less than 20 feedback, ask kindly that you please contact me prior to inputting an offer. I must weed out the scammers.
