First delivered new in 1997 to the Riverside Ohio Police Dept. as a duty cruiser, it was then bought by a local car collector at 17,000 miles, after a minor nose accident took it out of service.  The collector took it to Custom Coach Builders in Lima Ohio, (still in business) a limo, hearse and flower car builder, with the task of turning it into a station wagon.  Custom Coach used a mid-90's station wagon back from a Mercury Sable, plus new sheet metal from the rear seats back to turn it into a factory-looking wagon.  The collector then took it to a high end auto upholsterer who redid the seats and the roof liner, then installed a matching fabric rear-facing third seat.  It also has nice late-90's Mercury Grand Marquis aluminum wheels.  The rear window opens separately from the rear deck door.  I swapped out the original radio for a Kenwood radio/cd/Sirius player.

It sat in heated storage until I bought it in Feb. of 2010, when it had 23,500 miles.  Before buying it, I verified that it was a true P71 full Interceptor and that it had a clean CarFax and title.  I added a Class 3 hitch and an electric trailer brake controller, so I could occasionally pull a boat trailer.  I garaged it and drove it to work on Fridays, so now the car has 40,600 miles, is extremely well carried for, and has absolutely no rust.

The tires have 10-12,000 miles of remaining wear and no services will need to be done before the happy buyer takes it across country.  For those requesting transmission information, I had the transmission fluid replaced at 30,000 miles and the old fluid was perfectly clean.  Interceptors have a special speed chip, two radiators, a transmission cooler, heavy duty suspension and an anti-sway bar, so while set up for speed, they also can handle a Class 3 5,000 lb. tow.  I have magnetic badges that I apply when I take it to car shows (LAPD Badge # 714 and US Navy Shore Patrol.)  Always a hit at car shows, the car guys know that Ford didn't build a big wagon after 1991, but they all agree that if built by the factory, it would look just like mine.

I sold the boat and bought a Class C RV, so I no longer need my big rig.  While currently garaged in Raymond, ME, nor far from the Portland Airport, I could arrange to bring it to my eastern Long Island, NY home for inspection.  631-813-9006 for more information.  Ken

Autoblog Technology of the Year Award Special | Autoblog Podcast #758

Thu, Dec 1 2022

This episode of the Autoblog Podcast features Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore, Road Test Editor Zac Palmer and Consumer Editor Jeremy Korzeniewski. The trio begin by discussing the 2022 Technology of the Year award. Ford's Onboard Scales and Smart Hitch hauling/towing tech as tested in the F-150 Lightning won this year. Why the Ford won, how testing went down and Ford's competition — including the GMC Hummer EV and Genesis GV60 — are discussed. After diving through the Technology of the Year award testing, the three take on this week's news. A mysterious vehicle based on the Corvette (that isn't a Corvette) is supposedly on its way. Audi is giving us "Performance" versions of the RS 6 Avant and RS 7 Sportback. Plus, we discuss a recent study that provides data for the 10 longest lasting vehicles on the road today. After the news, the crew dive into the cars they've been driving this week. Greg's been behind the wheel of a Nissan Pathfinder, while Jeremy and Zac have been driving some plug-in hybrids, including the Lexus NX 450h+ and Autoblog's long-term BMW 330e xDrive.

The 11 most expensive American cars ever

Tue, 12 Aug 2014

Here's a Pro Tip for all you would-be classic car investors out there: buy Ferraris. With the Pebble Beach festivities kicking off this week, including any number high end car auctions, we thought it would be entertaining to compile a list of some to the most expensive cars ever sold with the bang of a gavel. Trouble is, once you get past the splendor of everyone's favorite Italian sports car maker, that list is pretty boring.
Ferrari dominates the all-time auction sales list; seven of the top ten most expensive cars sold wear the Cavallino Rampante badge, as well as more than half of the top fifty. Sure, a nearly $30-million Mercedes-Benz W196 racecar might be the new top dog as of last year, but it's even possible that Ferrari could take that title back in Monterey this weekend. Long story short: we think a list of the most expensive American cars ever sold at auction is a lot more entertaining to read. Hell, our list has a friggin' Batmobile on it, how can it go wrong?
Follow on below for the top ten cars that are red, white, blue and a whole lot of green.

Recharge Wrap-up: Tesla considers Model III SUV and wagon, Ford tears Tesla apart

Mon, Oct 27 2014

Worries over Brazil's electric grid mean EVs are excluded from green car incentives. As part of a new efficiency program, non-plug-in hybrids will be eligible for a reduction in import duties, while EVs and plug-in hybrids will not. Brazil's government is concerned that the country's grid lacks the capacity to handle the increased load from an influx of EVs. Brazil plans to create a new incentive program - perhaps a more inclusive one - when the current one expires at the end of 2015. Read more at Green Car Reports. Tesla could make SUV and wagon derivatives of the upcoming Model III sedan. Tesla's VP of engineering, Chris Porritt, told Auto Express that to reach as many customers as possible, Tesla would consider all its options. "SUVs, estates - who knows?" says Porritt. He also says that while the company is currently focused on products with a broader appeal, another Roadster or other sports car aren't out of the question in the future. Read more at Auto Express. Ford admits to a Tesla Model S teardown. Ford CEO Mark Fields says that after disassembling, reassembling and driving the model S, his company is "very familiar with that product." He also says the Ford has the capability to build a similarly high-tech, long-range electric car. The questions still remains if Ford has plans for such a vehicle, but Fields says that it fits within Ford's "product philosophy." Read more at Business Insider and at USA Today.
