-1999 Ford Crown Victoria P71 Police Interceptor-

Up for auction with no reserve is my 1999 Crown Victoria P71.  It has low original mileage of just over 100,000.  The tires are brand new, with less than 500 miles on them, and the driver's side of the exhaust system was fully replaced.  Also, the car has had the following services performed within the last two months:

  • New sparkplugs
  • New fuel filter
  • Fuel tank flushed
  • All eight injectors removed, cleaned, and reinstalled
  • Throttle body thoroughly cleaned
  • Brand new high-quality battery installed
  • MAF sensor cleaned
  • Oil change
  • Newer starter with only 70K miles on it
  • New windshield wiper motor

Overall, the car starts without hesitation, runs smooth, drives well, shifts nicely with no unusual noises, and the brakes feel solid.  Paint is original and in nice condition, with no body damage aside from some rust on the front fenders.  The condition of the car's interior is above-average for it's age.  The intake manifold is original to the car and will need to be replaced soon due to a crack at the thermostat housing.  This is also causing the 'check engine' light to come on.  However, there is no coolant leaking into the engine or exhaust system (no white smoke from the exhaust, no milky look to the oil, and she's firing on all 8 cylinders).  The shocks feel pretty firm and car has no other leaks besides the intake manifold.  I do recommend that the car only be driven short distances until the intake manifold is replaced.



Please note the following:  This car does not have a spare tire, and the hide-a-flash strobes have been disconnected as per eBay's equipment policy.  There are alternating hazard lights inside the trunk lid that can be connected if desired.

Vehicle shipping or transport must be arranged solely by the buyer, if desired.  A $100 deposit is required within 48 hours of the auction's close, and payment, cash only, must be made in full within 7 days.

Detroit's new fleet of donated police cars have safety issues [w/video]

Wed, 23 Oct 2013

In a show of generosity in mid-August, Detroit's business leaders donated $8 million to the Police Department and Fire Department in order to buy 100 new police vehicles and 23 EMS ambulances. But now officers have discovered - and complained - that the police vehicles have glaring safety issues, Deadline Detroit reports. It is not made clear what models of the fleet vehicles - which include police versions of the Ford Taurus, the Chevrolet Caprice and the Dodge Charger - are affected by the safety issues.
Officers reportedly have complained that the Plexiglass partition separating front-seat officers and back-seat prisoners is easily breached, and that the front passenger seat is installed too close to the dashboard. Prisoners who manage to writhe out of their handcuffs can bend the Plexiglass and reach into the cockpit, and sitting too close to the dashboard can render airbags more dangerous and make officers more vulnerable to injury in a crash.
Mark Diaz, president of the Detroit Police Officers Association, received the complaints and reportedly said the vehicles would get safety updates addressing the issues. But Deadline Detroit reports that it checked some of the offending police cars and, as of the last few days, they hadn't been updated.

Ford Escort returns, just not for US

Sat, 19 Apr 2014

Ford is set to give the burgeoning Chinese market its very own C-segment model, while also reviving one of the brand's more notable nameplates. The new Escort, which will make its world debut at the 2014 Beijing Motor Show will be built in the People's Republic at the Changan Ford joint venture facility.
The Escort's exterior is best thought of as a mix of the finer points from the US market Focus and Fusion, with the Aston Martin-ish grille and narrow, wraparound taillights presenting a clean look at either end of the car. It's all fairly true to the concept car from last year's Shanghai Motor Show. That said, this exterior job is almost too clean. There doesn't seem to be a lot of character or substance beyond the typical Ford looks.
There's a similar issue in the cabin - it all looks pretty nice, but the design is rather plain, particularly when viewed alongside the display-filled cabin of a US-spec car. Still, there looks to be a fair amount of space in both the front and back seats, and the trunk isn't exactly tiny, either.

Auto critic calls out Corvette, Mustang and Cherokee faithful

Mon, 26 Aug 2013

Most automotive purists fear change, but not without reason. Change, after all, did kill big-block V8s, along with most station wagons and manual transmissions. But change has also brought with it far more performance, safety and fuel economy - not to mention ridding the world of shag carpet interiors, bias-ply tires and those horrible motorized seatbelts of the early '90s.
By this time next year, the Chevy Corvette, Jeep Cherokee and next-generation Ford Mustang will all be on sale and will all, in some way, have angered or offended purists. To those critics, Mark Phelan of the Detroit Free Press is preemptively telling them to stop complaining - at least until they've all been driven. From the Corvette's square taillights and the Cherokee's radical nose to whatever pony car purists will harp on the 2015 Mustang for, Phelan's column points out the positives of automotive evolution and the negatives of staying the course for too long. That's fair enough, but do you think Phelan is on point, or all wet? Head on over to the Detroit Free Press to read his words, then have your say in Comments.
