1993 Ford Crown Victoria LX.  Motor starts and runs well.  AC blows cold.  Good tread on tires.  No body or frame damage. No rust.  Never been in an accident.  Interior in very good shape.

The vehicle suffers from the following KNOWN issues:

Driver's-side front window does not open/close - window motor or regulator issue

Digital Clock Not Working - unknown electrical issue

Radio/Cassette Player Not Working - unknown electrical issue

Odometer Not Working - has not worked since 2004

Exhaust Pipe Partially Cut - incomplete exhaust project

Heater Core Clogged or Damaged - coolant leaks and collects on floor of passenger cabin

Sun-Damaged Paint - severe.....to bare metal in spots

Interior Rearview Mirror Not Attached - needs to be glued on

 

This vehicle was given to me by my father in July of 2005.  I am the second owner.  It was in excellent shape at the time he gave it to me and I used it regularly for about five years putting about another 30 - 40K miles on it by my best estimate.  This is in addition to the approximately 50+K miles already on it when the odometer stopped.  It has always been my "spare" vehicle.  For the last 3-4 years it has sat in my driveway.  Due to a combination of lack of use and the outside storage, little things have continued to go wrong with it over the  last few years.  It still starts and runs well.  I have always kept up routine maintenance on the motor.  Heater core issue came up about a year and a half ago and I have not re-registered the car since.  I have clear title.

Includes custom car cover, full-size spare and trailer hitch.  Car should not be driven until heater core issue is resolved due to overheating potential.  I can have vehicle towed to buyer's specified location within a 100 mile radius of 32738 zip code.

THE FINE PRINT: 

 Vehicle is sold “AS IS,” with NO WARRANTIES OR GUARANTEES expressed or implied.  Every reasonable effort has been made to accurately represent vehicle features and issues - NO RETURNS. Please study photographs and ask any questions before bidding.  SERIOUS BIDDERS ONLY, PLEASE.  Winning bidder must contact seller within 7 days of end of auction to arrange a time to meet and inspect the vehicle.   After inspection, buyer and seller will meet at local tag office to complete payment in full, transfer title and register the vehicle in buyer’s name.  Buyer will only take possession of vehicle AFTER title has been transferred and vehicle has been registered to buyer.  Tax, tag and title fees are the responsibility of the buyer. I am not a dealer.  This was my personal spare vehicle and I would prefer to see it go to someone who can get some more use out of it or has the time and capability to part it out for a profit. 

 

THANK YOU!

Compact SUV Comparison: Specs, pics and reviews of every brand's crossover

Wed, Jul 25 2018

Honda CR-V vs Toyota RAV4. Chevy Equinox vs Ford Escape. Mazda CX-5 vs Subaru Forester. Whichever combinations of compact crossover SUV you're considering, there's probably a comparison test or chart out there to read. Heck, you can even create a three-car comparison yourself here at Autoblog. However, if you want a bunch of that information all in one convenient place, well, here it is. Our mega comparison of specs, features and photos of compact SUV entries from every mainstream manufacturer that sells them. That includes the 2018 Chevrolet Equinox, 2018 Ford Escape, 2018 GMC Terrain, 2018 Honda CR-V, 2018 Hyundai Tucson, 2019 Jeep Cherokee (it's already on sale with notable changes from 2018), 2018 Jeep Compass, 2018 Kia Sportage, 2018 Mazda CX-5, 2018 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross (none of Mitsu's SUVs are perfect fits for this segment, so we deemed the MEC the most competitive fit), 2018 Nissan Rogue, 2018 Subaru Forester, 2018 Toyota RAV4 and 2018 Volkswagen Tiguan. We can update this comparison as more information about 2019 models is released, most notably the Forester and RAV4. Now, there are certainly some models that are smaller (Nissan Rogue Sport) or larger (Kia Sorento) that could also be considered, but we figured it was wise to stick with those in this sweet spot of comparable size and price. We also included links to Autoblog reviews, buying guides and smaller comparisons. Engines and Transmissions With rare exception, this segment features four-cylinder power. Sometimes it's turbocharged, often its not, but standard engine outputs are generally in the same ballpark. Therefore, we'd recommend focusing on torque output, as it's what will make a difference around town or when passing, and weighing that versus fuel economy (the Chevy Equinox, GMC Terrain, Honda CR-V and Mazda CX-5 make particularly strong cases in this regard). Many drivers aren't too fond of continuously variable transmissions (CVT), either, so that's another thing to consider and note during a test drive. As you can see, several models are available with performance upgrades. Besides the Jeep Cherokee's available V6, all are more powerful turbocharged four-cylinder engines. The exception to this would be the Honda CR-V and Ford Escape, as their 1.5-liter turbo engines don't prioritize performance. Instead, they serve as overall upgrades to the base naturally aspirated engines standard on only their base trim levels (CR-V LX and Escape S).

Top Gear season 25 opens with a V8 roadtrip through America

Mon, Feb 26 2018

Great news for fans of BBC Top Gear: the first episode of season 25 is here. Viewers of BBC America will catch the season opener on March 3, and for the American audience this episode is definitely suitable watching. The episode has been dedicated to V8 sportscars almost in its entirety, as it's been wrapped around a Western roadtrip with a motorsport bias. The three hosts get to choose three V8 sports cars, with the basic idea of finding the best all-rounder. Matt LeBlanc goes for a Hennessey-tuned GT350R, Rory Reid chooses a Jaguar F-Type SVR, and Chris Harris shakes up the pack by selecting a McLaren 570GT. It's a nicely varied trio, with V8 power still showing what it's good for. There are various challenges along the way, just like there should be on a Top Gear roadtrip episode – even if the road surface itself isn't always ideal. But things smoothen out, all the way to a NASCAR oval and an airport runway; the flooded Bonneville salt flats aren't suitable for shenanigans, so substitutes have to be found. The trio also hit dirt roads, and have to evade a buggy-driving Ken Block during a "moonshine run to the border." Fans of Sabine Schmitz will be pleased to find her piloting a chain car racer, which consists of two American junk cars with a Honda CRX chained in the middle. It must make sense to someone. The Star In A Reasonably Priced Car segment has been retained for this season. This time it's the British actor Rob Brydon driving the Toyota GT86, on a very wet lap around the show's Dunsfold Aerodrome track that must be a cult classic by now. All in all, the season 25 opener is exactly what it says on the tin. There's nothing out of the ordinary, but it still has excellent cinematography, V8 roar and some nice landscapes. Classic Top Gear. Cowboy duels, Sabine Schmitz chain car racing, @RobBrydon, a @kblock43 car chase and #TheStig The latest episode of #TopGear is available on @BBCiPlayer now. Outside the UK?

Jay Leno is far beyond driven in his 1971 Pantera

Mon, 23 Jun 2014

Perhaps it's fitting that the band Pantera is known for its heavy metal music, because the DeTomaso Pantera is the automotive equivalent of a metal album. It's short, aggressive and makes a mean sound. It doesn't mess around either, with a Ford 351-cubic-inch (5.75-liter) V8 sending mountains of torque to the rear wheels. This week, Jay Leno takes us on a detailed tour of his '71 to show why it rocks.
There's a regular format to Jay Leno's Garage. It starts with Jay and maybe a guest taking a look at the car and talking about its history, and then they take it out on the open road. However, this video is practically a Pantera buyer's guide. Jay is adamant from the start that the last thing anyone should own is a stock example. To remedy this, he and his guest, the editor of the Pantera Club magazine, take viewers to school about some of the ways to turn them into even better performance machines.
No matter what you do to it, though, the Pantera requires that the driver adapt to it, not the other way around. For example, Jay isn't a big guy by most standards, but he has to cram himself into the cockpit with his shoes off and shirt partially unbuttoned just to go for a drive. Still, once out on the road, it all makes sense with that rumbling V8 and those Italian supercar looks. Scroll down to watch and learn a lot more about this uncompromising '70s performance car.
