Speaking of phone chargers I need to find an easy fused B+ source to tap for a generic cigarette lighter socket. I'm sure its there somewhere I just havent really searched yet.

If you need to run a shitload of power wires from the battery, there's probably a 1.5" diameter hole in the passenger firewall from the harness going through.

I've still got 900 left after bills and I'm thinking tint and a radio deck that I can plug Pandora into.

I think we can all agree that he needs to put some serious hustle in the Crown Vic. You have had enough slow, lovely cars. Time to have a fast lovely one.

But my fuel economy  Also this is already the biggest engine by displacement and raw numbers that I've ever owned, the next closest even comparable was the 2.5 in my E30 and (displacement wise) the 2.6s in the Froot Truck 2 and Starion. Everything else has been 2L or smaller, and I'm up to 17 cars now I think at last count. Maybe 18.

But just think of all the money and time saved on repairs and trouble shooting! Got my steering mid shaft and firewall bearing in today, supposedly they'll make my car feel like new again, we'll see. Applebees Appetizer fucked around with this message at 01:48 on Mar 3, 2013 |

Actually I've heard we have a lot of Panthers up in here, maybe we should just consolidate in this thread? I dont mind. Could use with a decent rename if we want to.

 Something happened here but it doesnt seem to be leaking now, hose tag looks newer.  Upper control arms and front shocks are on the menu.  Cooler assembly     Words dont do justice how bright this dome light is, its in additional to the normal domes.  Gutted rear doors, but I do have the door panel for it.

I saw one of these on I-5 S towards SODO/Georgetown at about 8:30pm Thursday night. Would that have been you?? I actually had never seen a Seattle blue former cop car before, that I knew of, so it's kind of weird that I saw one IRL and then see this thread.

Was out cruising for the gently caress of it. I was in that area around that time, I've already had 2 friends spot me in Ballard too. Also, dick move to let my car idle at the entrance to our lot to get the heat running?

My vote is going to be to hold onto the leftover tax money for when you parlay the cleaned up CV into more money than you paid by flipping it in six months, then you can get a Fox body Mustang and grow a moustache and unnngggggg

Nice car! I'm on the lookout for a Town Car of about that vintage. Hoping to find one around $3k that hasn't been beat to hell as a taxi/airport driver.

Oh god that roof. Nice to see you still have the ticket light though. I still have mine but the cover busted off so it's EVEN BRIGHTER. I think my ticket light can illuminate cars next to me Also, if we're consolidating here as Panther owners, can I show off mine? Because I love mine    Love that big barge. Out of the cars i've owned, it's my favorite by far.

If we're going to have it more inviting to all panther owners, how about "I think it looks more like a Puma- Panther Parking Only" as the thread title?

I think it'd be more fun that way, to be honest. Since it's not such a rare car and theres a larger community base in Ai than say a 142, it doesn't need quite the same spotlighting and we can all share! I'll PM IOwnCalculus.

Do PDs every buy Grand Marquis's? They don't, and I'm safe to ignore those as potential unmarked cars, right?

My ex room mate went down for selling coke to an undercover in a Town Car for what its worth. Course, I've also seen someone get pulled over by an undercover Neon. How do you manage to pull THAT beat?

The cops here (western australia) have been getting wise for a few years now, I've seen unmarked Subaru hatches and ford explorers doing freeway patrol of late. I've never really gotten fearful of commodores here because 9 times out of 10 it turns out to be some knob hockey in a Holden ute that pulls up behind you at speed

I got pulled over by a riced out 99-00 Civic Si ages ago (I think this was in 2001?). I assume it was something that was seized from someone, but I saw it a lot for about two years. One hell of a "I'M NOT A COP" sleeper for sure.. I've also been pulled over by a mid-late 80s Aerostar with peeling paint (in the mid 00s). Gotta love the suburbs. randomidiot fucked around with this message at 10:21 on Mar 3, 2013 |

Honestly if I could have found one that I could afford back in school I wouldn't even have the truck. But if I am still alive after I wrap it around a cactus the drivetrain will be going in a p71 next.
