2005 Ford Crown Victoria P-71 Police Interceptor **104K HIGHWAY MILES** This was mainly a HIGHWAY CRUISER
**FRONT BUMPER AND ALL LIGHTS NOT INCLUDED UNLESS YOU PURCHASE THEM AFTER THE SALE** I will keep the bumper on until the car is SOLD, and you contact me to keep it on, otherwise it's being removed and sold separately.
READ THE ENTIRE POST
If this car doesn't sell right now, I'm completely cleaning it up and purchasing a seat removing all wiring, equipment etc. I know it looks like shit, I just bought, paid good money for it, and threw it up here for an offer. So if it doesn't sell I'm going all out and fixing the entire car up to get more money out of it. As simple as that. I will spend the $1,400 to repaint it, vinyl/cloth rear seat, rear door panels, add center console, tires, etc. If you want a low mileage P-71, now is the time to take one, because when I fix this P-71 up for the $1400 it needs just to look "pretty and presentable", I'm going to be asking $6,500+. It doesn't necessarily need it, I'm not hurting for money or time, it will require alot of my time and labor, but its up to you if you want to do it yourself on your own schedule and own cost. Again, if it doesn't sell now I'm going all out with it and re-selling it as one of the cleanest low mileage P-71's on here. New center caps, sparkling clean engine bay and all. It will look brand new.
2005 Police Interceptor P-71 package Crown Victoria Interceptor. VIN # confirms it is a P-71. Also used as an Indiana State Trooper Meth Suppression Unit undercover raid car. This car was active.
Here's the deal on the car, was an Indiana State Trooper Highway Cruiser in East Chicago, which is in Indiana, I could go on and on about the power of the car, but I'm sure if you're looking at this post you know the car will break the tires loose at 30mph, and you have to be easy on the gas when accelerating from a dead stop or you're going to sit in one spot roasting the tires. This engine is the Corvette motor of Ford. Features Forged internals instead of Cast, and higher compression. Also has an Oil Cooler for high abuse RPM use.
More about the P-71 Body/Drivetrain THIS PARTICULAR CAR HAS THE OPTIONAL LIMITED SLIP DIFFERENTIAL. Also, 2005 was the last year for the "Aluminum Metal Matrix Composite Driveshaft" which reassured safe speed over 150mph. They went straight aluminum on the 2006+ to save costs, and had a limiter on the car to 125mph. This car does not have a limiter.
The rear-end is 3:27:1, the suspension is very stiff. The transmission has modified shift points compared to regular Crown Victoria's. It is very aggressive, aggressive as in it shifts from a high RPM to a slightly lower, but higher RPM when you engage the accelerator heavily. In other words, it will redline at 5,500RPM, and only drop back down to 3,800RPM to keep your accelerating speed very high.
Now on to this particular car..
This car was active. It has a plastic rear seat, at THIS particular time it has all the wiring, brackets etc in the car. Painted over with black industrial spray paint by the city of East Chicago/Auctioneer's at the state auction. The stickers are still readable, just all black. Right now, it looks presentable from 25 feet away.
The good:
Low mileage P-71 forged internal high compression engine in very good working order
104K HIGHWAY MILES. This car may have been seen by YOU on the Indiana Interstate's in East Chicago.
Suspension is good
Transmission is good
Limited Slip Differential(also known as Posi-Trac) 3:27:1 gearing
Front seats in very good condition
Dash is in good condition, mainly used brackets to hold and mount equipment so there aren't dozens of holes. The wiring was ran under the dash.
Power Steering pump good
Oil cooler working
Radiator good
All engine internals good
**NO RUST AROUND WHEEL WELL OR UNDER ANY DOORS**
Headlights and Taillights working, there are NO shorts in the wiring
Huge trunk
Exhaust system is in very good condition
**NO LEAKS ANYWHERE INSIDE** Everything is plugged
**NO LEAKS FROM ENGINE OR TRANS OR RADIATOR**
Windows work
Everyone moves out of the way quickly when you're laying down the left lane of the interstate
Still gets 18mpg
Doesn't really need a tune-up
The Bad, not going to bullshit here:
Needs Tires
Needs Alignment
Needs Driver-side Mirror replacement
Needs Rear Seat unless you don't really care about the plastic rear seat
Needs Rear Intererior Door Panels unless you don't really care
Needs SEAT BELTS
Needs AC Fixed
Needs dash light replaced
Needs Re-Paint (if you're as picky as me) Maaco has $500 specials all day long for sanding and re-paint. Black is cheap.
Has small weatherstripping holes
Needs pulley on engine replaced, the pulley rattles and makes noise, bearings are worn out
Horn doesn't work because it was hooked up to the siren
No radio, of course
Has rust on roof from being parked under some shitty berry dropping tree that ate the paint away. Just little spots of rust.
When you hit the gas pedal you may shit yourself while accelerating
That's everything.
As stated above, everything listed above would only cost you $1,400, Tires, Repaint, Seat, Panels everything. All it REALLY needs is tires and an alignment if you don't care about the paint. So all it REALLY needs is ~$600.
You don't have to worry about the engine, or the transmission, or drivetrain, suspension, or any mechanical components.
Everything bad I listed can and will be fixed by me in less than 4 weekends if it doesn't sell now, and marked up to a price that you won't appreciate. It's just up here to see the interest in it in the shape that it's in, before I start getting my hands dirty. I will completely go all out on it if it doesn't go now. I have fixed up many, many, many cars in my short life. This is a drop in the bucket, a cakewalk to fix. I put it up dirty, disgusting, and I'll show you what you missed out on 30 days after it doesn't sell. Plenty of cash to burn, plenty of time to look for a clean used seat and door panels on the internet and Chicago junk yards.
Same condition and same era P-71's with 20,000-50,000 more miles are selling for $3,200-5,000+ on here under SOLD listings. My reserve is set where it needs to be, and I think it's fair. It's ready to go.

Ford bringing production F-150 to Detroit with Atlas styling and Alcoa blast shields
Fri, 27 Dec 2013According to a report in Bloomberg, the 2015 Ford F-150 will indeed be showing up at the Detroit Auto Show next month. It will bring attitude with it, not only in the form of sheetmetal inspired by the Atlas concept (pictured) that appeared at the 2013 Detroit show but also in the Alcoa military blast shields among the display being used to showcase the ruggedness of aluminum.
There's been a lot of talk about the F-150 switching to aluminum body panels (although maintaining a steel frame), and for good reason. The lightweight body is expected to shed more than 700 pounds and greatly increase its highway mileage, but production-line issues and possible delays have been a major focus of attention concerning the best-selling vehicle in America for 32 years, meaning Ford has to get it right. F-150 is responsible for a massive portion of the company's global profits and it will come in a year when company profits are already predicted to decline because of new car launches.
When it comes to dings, the Bloomberg story says Ford wants Alcoa to supply some of the military-grade aluminum it uses for blast shields on battlefield vehicles to help it talk up the toughness of aluminum. Reading commentary on the many stories about the F-150 reveals there are many more little questions about the aluminum overhaul, like "How much will it cost to repair and insure?" and "How will companies hang their magnetic signs?" Answers should start coming in a couple of weeks.
James Franco and tiger tease Ford Super Bowl commercial
Sat, 01 Feb 2014Ford has just released a teaser for its Super Bowl ad, and unlike just about every other automaker, it seems that the Blue Oval is going to make us wait until Sunday to see the full spot. The teaser is, um, strange.
It stars James Franco, who believes he is Ron Riggle, the comedian, Fox NFL Sunday host and retired Marine lieutenant colonel. There's also a tiger. The vague spot has Franco claiming that "this is no ordinary commercial." You'll note on the bottom right, there's a Ford logo and the hashtag #nearlydouble.
According to Automotive News, it's part of a massive viral effort being pushed forward by Ford and its dealerships. Ford sent different teasers and "vignettes" to dealership employees and asked them to share them on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, in the hopes of creating a viral effect.
Vaughn Gittin Jr. takes his dog for a drift
Tue, 09 Sep 2014
Vaughn Gittin Jr. spends a great deal of his workday going sideways, but he's usually alone in the endeavor. For a guy that is clearly a dog lover, we imagine that can get a bit lonely.
That won't be a problem for Gittin in this latest video, which features the racer hanging out with his good pal Brody (a dog) and everyone's favorite hot hatch, the Ford Fiesta ST.
