I own a Ford again!

[BlueChariot]

So, I already had dibs to buy my friend Dani's '91 LTD Crown Vic when she saved up to get somethin else, it's been a little rough during the two years she's had it. Well today on her way to work it overheated and konked out on her, so she immediately told her if I wanted it a price shall be negotiated. Now, it's got issues, but the price I'm givin her is still good. The miles per gallon measures today were in water, not gas. It deffinitely needs new gaskets, except maybe the rear main seal. It's got coolant all up in it's oil, looks like chocolate milk. But I got that sumbitch to my driveway under it's own power without much more collateral damage. Steam was shooting out the dipstick tube. I probably put a total of 12 gallons of water into it to (kinda) safely get it to my house.

Pics shall be uploaded tommorow!

Gonna keep with the 302, gonna do some tear down soon to see how extensive thecurrent damage is and eithe rebuild it or swap in another 302. Eventually I wanna drop a 351 stroker in it, but it's WAY out of my budget to do that swap soon.

Eventually it's gonna look like a generic old cop car, long ass whip antenna bent down w/ CB, black and white paintjob with simple big black stars on the front doors, 351 swap, heavy duty suspension componenets and cop steelies.
