This is not your grandma's Crown Victoria because it was MY Grandma's Crown Victoria!  It started it's life in Tomball, TX just north of Houston and only drove 15,000 miles in it's first 10 years.  When Grandma passed away, it was left to me and I immediately got new tires, battery, fuel filter, belt, and hoses installed.  Car now has 34,400 miles on the odometer (it does get driven occasionally, so mileage will increase slightly) and is in perfect shape.  Fuel pump and filter replaced in Feb 2014 due to it sitting so much early in it's life, head unit replaced with a Pioneer Bluetooth unit along with Kenwood 3 way speakers in stock locations.

Interior is excellent, no cracks or rips in seats, power seats work, lumbar works, AC works, heat is great (new thermostat summer 2013), and regular oil changes with Mobil 1 synthetic and Motorcraft 820S Filter.  Tires have at least 80% wear left, as do the snow tires which are included in sale.  I have only put 19,000 miles on the car over the past 3 years, which is approximately 6000 miles a year.  It gets used very rarely in the snow, and is washed weekly in the winter to prevent rust.  The snow tires are excellent, and the car has never been stuck in the snow, even after the insane winter we had this past year.  I would use it instead of my work van due to it's much better traction in the snow.

This car is reliable, easy to drive, and would make an excellent car for a new driver or someone who likes a great, comfortable car for the highway.  Gets good highway mileage on regular gas (approx 26mpg) and easily seats 6.

Fitting Retirement: Grand Marquis last Mercury off the line

Wed, 05 Jan 2011

The signs have come down and retail production ended back in October of 2010. Now, the very last Mercury model has rolled off the assembly line. This last Mercury somewhat fittingly takes the form of a Grand Marquis reporting for fleet duty. It was built at the St. Thomas plant in Ontario, Canada, which is the same facility that continues to produce the Ford Crown Victoria and Lincoln Town Car for fleet and livery duty.
St. Thomas' days are numbered, however, as the factory is slated to close on August 31. When it goes, the Panther platform is likely to follow. So long, and thanks for all the fish memories.

The fascinating forgotten civil defense history of Mister Softee trucks

Mon, 26 Aug 2013

Hemmings came across an interesting article from the Throwin' Wrenches blog about the intersection of ice cream, cars and civic duty in America's late 1950s. In particular, it focuses on the Mister Softee trucks, which criss-crossed neighborhoods of the eastern US serving ice cream. Looking past the ultra-durable vehicles used - heavy-duty Ford-based chassis, for what it's worth - the article delves into some deeper national-security territory.
See, Mister Softee truck owners were voluntary members of the Civil Defense, thanks to all the useful stuff (potable water, generators, freezers and fridges) that the machines carried with them for serving ice cream. Click over to Throwin' Wrenches for the full run down of how Mister Softee would have stepped in to help fight if the Cold War ever turned a little hotter.

2015 Gordon McCall's Motorworks Revival

Thu, Aug 13 2015

Considered the big kick off of the major festivities surrounding Monterey Car Week, this year's Gordon McCall's Motorworks Revival certainly didn't disappoint. For those unable to make it to the California coast, our own Drew Phillips was on hand to snap some of the beautiful vehicles on display for this gorgeous gallery. Held annually at the Monterey Jet Center, the event is always a feast for the eyes by collecting planes, a gang of exotic supercars, and some the top cars crossing the auction block over the coming days, like a Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda convertible. The Ford GT both new and old was a major attendee at this year's party. Among them, the Petersen Museum brought along an original racecar and a GT40 MKIII to promote an upcoming exhibit. The classics were complimented by the latest version that has continued to keep tongues wagging. The GT wasn't the only classic with a modern update there. Singer used the posh event for the North American debut of its stunning restoration of the Porsche 911 Targa. Shelby American was also at the revival for the public unveiling of the 50th Anniversary Daytona Coupe. On the more modern front, Honda was in attendance with the future NSX and one of the McLaren F1 cars that the company's engine powers. For further proof of the ritzy folks that attend this soiree, Pagani and Koenigsegg both had stands to show off their extremely quick wares.
