1992 Ford Crown Victoria P75 Touring Sedan, Very Low Miles, Detective Unmarked on 2040-cars
Brighton, Michigan, United States
FOMOCO's “Special” Crown Victoria … The 1992 Touring Sedan (P75) This is a rare opportunity to win
what could be the lowest mile Ford Crown Victoria P75 Touring Sedan in the
country. If you’re NOT familiar with this 1 year only Special from the Ford
Motor company, read the description “P75
history…” at the end of the description. This is not your standard P71 interceptor !!! I bought this vehicle several years back from
a retired Police detective in Buffalo New York who managed to rack up only 29 300
miles. This was his private car and never served detective duty. I’m a car
collector and couldn’t resist buying it. I hardly drove (less than 200 mls)
it over the last 6 years to preserve it’s low mileage. It was stored away, I
just kept the fluids topped off and started it regularly. The car appears to be stock except a
few tasteful, modifications done by the previous owner which seem to reflect his
police background: · Like new dual Flowmaster mufflers and turndowns before the rear
axle (they still look like new). They add a nice rumble without causing
resonance or drone in the interior · Upgraded Pioneer stereo (must have been done in the 90’s since it is an AM FM casette unit) · Various P75 & Interceptor commemorative emblems /decals
(They are all 3M adhesive emblems and could be removed for a stock look) I do
have all original body emblems. · Ford Racing cold air intake According
to a sticker on the driver side rear window, the car has been “super sealed”
(rust prevention treatment similar to Ziebart) when new and it shows. I don’t
see any rust on the body. However, I wouldn’t describe this Crown Vic as flawless show car,
it’s a 22 year old automobile with little marks here and there, but very little
effort could turn this into one of the cleanest, probably lowest mile
P75’s in the country. Or
you just enjoy it for what it is, a powerful rear wheel drive fully loaded V8
police interceptor with less than 30.000 mls! They don’t build them like this
anymore. I
have the clear title in my hands, but currently registration is expired. You’re
welcome to come by and inspect the car in person, or inquire about details in
writing through Ebay. I
reserve the right to end the auction at any time. Interior: I
rate it 8 out of 10. Very clean, flawless headliner, minor stains on carpet,
new floor mats. Rear bench and passenger seat are like new. Driver seat has
slight discoloration seems a shade darker as the rest, however it is the
original (P75 exclusive seat) I tried to capture it but you can’t see it on the
photos. The P75’s had every factory
option available in 1992: ·
Power Steering ·
Power Seats with lumbar support ·
Power windows ·
Power lock ·
Power doors ·
Power Mirrors ·
Power Antenna ·
Keyless entry ·
Air condition ·
Anti lock brakes ·
Remote trunk and fuel door release ·
Traction control ·
Rear air suspension ·
Full leather interior All Power options work except the remote trunk
release occasionally cut’s out but the key always works.
AC has been converted to R134 and blows ice-cold. Airbag light blinks. Exterior: I
rate it a 7 out of 10. Car is 22 years old and has minor nicks and here and
there. There are too small to show on the photos however. All P75’s came in a
two tone color scheme. Glass is flawless. Door edges and wheel wells look
extremely clean. Headlight and taillight lenses are clear. Good rubber parts.
Original alloys have some clear coat peeling. Engine, Transmission: 29
528 original miles. Not much else to say. I changed all fluids this week. Engine oil +
filter Transmission fluid + filter, brakefluid, rear axle fluid. No noises or
leaks. The P75’s has all the P71 Interceptor heavy duty parts (springs, shocks,
brakes, cooling, quick ratio steering, swaybars, traction control, dual exhaust
etc.). Tires, Brakes, Suspension: Tires are old and should be replaced if used as a driver, however they have between 30 and 50% thread left.. Brakes are strong, pads seem to be new. The emergency brake cable seized since it was never used and was removed. Air suspension and load levelling work as intended. Steering is tight and direct, no leaks or noises. The P75 history… The 1992 Ford Crown Victoria Touring
Sedan P75 is truly a unique and eclectic car. In fact these are so rare, I did
not even know they existed until I did some homework on the models. Most
people, like myself, that are fans of the Crown Victoria know of the P71
(Police Car), and the other “P” designations of the many base and enhanced
models of Crown Victorias. For only one year in 1992, these few limited
production cars were built as the Crown Victoria Touring Sedan under the P75
VIN Designation. 1992 is also the first year of the newer crown vic with the
4.6 engine. I am assuming due to the 30% extra price over base and the fact
these were more “performance” type cars than the general Crown Vic crowd
attracted, the orders were not many thus it was only made one year. I would say
this was really the first version of what Chevy did with the Impala SS. I would
also say that the total productions of these Touring Sedans are about a % of
the Impala SS too. I really have not been able to find out how many of these
were actually made. What this car is, is essentially a P71 with every available option
known to the Ford Lineup designated under the one time used P75 VIN ID. Later
Crown Vic’s would see things like the HPP package, sport package and special
ordered version of the car per unit, but not to this loaded out level as a
“Touring Sedan” package like the P75. The Touring Sedan has the suspension
of the P71 with the higher rate springs, larger sway bars, quicker ratio
steering, etc plus all the luxury items found on a loaded out Town Car. The
Touring Sedan also boasts the 3.27 rear gear ratio with traction control, 4 wheel
disk brakes, dual exhaust higher performance engine (210HP), heavy duty
cooling, power steering cooling, extra transmission cooling, gauges, larger
wheels and performance tires, ABS, Traction, etc. It had a top speed said to hit in the 130s. (same as P71) Of course things like power windows, power seats with recliners and lumbar, power mirrors, power antenna Door keypad system. The door panels and leather seats are special to the Touring Sedan along with the dark wood trim inside. I do not believe there is an option available that is not on this car. It has it all. I also believe that all touring sedans are a two tone color combination. |

Experts wonder if aluminum F-150 gives Ford a real advantage
Mon, 17 Mar 2014There's no doubt that Ford is taking a risk in producing the body of its upcoming new F-150 pickup truck in aluminum. What is up for debate, however, is whether aluminum was a wise risk to take in the first place. Wards Auto took the opportunity to poll some experts on the subject of aluminum versus steel in the automotive sector, with somewhat unsurprising results.
Richard Schultz, a project consultant at Ducker Worldwide, which bills itself as "a leading aluminum industry consultant (though they also deal in steels), suggests that the potential drawbacks to aluminum - higher costs, lower supply - aren't really impediments to the auto industry's increased acceptance of the lightweight metal.
Similarly, Randall Scheps, global automotive marketing director for Alcoa, a massive aluminum producer, counters claims that aluminum is less safe for vehicle occupants, suggesting that the use of aluminum can actually increase safety as it could potentially allow for larger vehicles with more crush space than steel.
George W. Bush's 2009 Ford F-150 fizzles with $300,000 bid at Barrett-Jackson [UPDATE: w/video]
Sun, 20 Jan 2013Despite some truly impassioned pleading from Jay Leno himself - including calling on Arizona's notoriously Republican-rich voters to beat the $600,000 level set the last time Leno sold a vehicle for this particular charity... in California - bidding for George Bush's 2009 Ford F-150 pickup truck stalled at $300,000.
All proceeds will be sent to the Fisher House Foundation, so at least it's $300K going to a good cause. Feel free to check out the live image gallery above, which includes shots showing Leno's skills helming the auction, and read through the official auction description below.
*UPDATE: Video of the auction and Leno's prods to the crowd for more money can now be seen below.
2015 Mustang-based Saleen S302 to boast as much as 640 hp
Tue, 23 Sep 2014The Ford Mustang is obviously a famous performance vehicle in its own right, but it often works even better as a platform for the aftermarket to upgrade. With the all-new 2015 model just now hitting the scene, the famous tuners at Saleen are getting their improvements for the new pony car ready for the world. After recently teasing it, the specs for its fresh S302 model are officially here, along with a first look at it in profile.
Of course, the biggest question on everyone's mind is how much power the company can get from the Mustang's V8. With the 2015 V8 model rated at 435 horsepower and 400 pound-feet, Saleen expects to bump the Ford factory numbers slightly to 450 hp and 410 lb-ft in naturally aspirated form, or with the benefit of a supercharger, it will rocket the engine's output figures to 640 hp and 565 lb-ft. No matter which powerplant a buyer chooses, there are a wide variety of available final-drive ratios with a six-speed manual or automatic gearbox.
Available as either a coupe or convertible forms, Saleen will offer its S302 in three trim levels - White Label, Yellow Label and Black Label. The White Label is the only naturally aspirated one of the bunch, but it still benefits from upgrades like a new exhaust, limited-slip differential, improved suspension, heat extractor hood and rear wing.
