Let this be Nick's first TH-cam project let him take complete control and decide how the car ends up
That’s a great idea!
I agree that would be a great idea!
Yes , let nick decide
Let Nick decide the color. The Crown Vic is like driving a couch on wheels. Very comfortable
1992 Hawaiian ( purple) chevy camaro color! That'd be cool along with trim and badge delete....
Not like a Lincoln tho
I have had about 8 Crown Vics and Grand Marquis over the years, and when they get some miles on them, I always either clean or change the MAF, change the idle air control valve, clean or change the EGR valve. These three things typically tend to be the biggest contributors to sputtering, rough running, etc. Of course plugs and wires or coils, depending on what it has. I think maybe 99 or 2000 they changed to coils. Excellent vehicle, a breeze to work on! Great score for the money. You will sell it in no time if you decide to not keep it.
No, they went to coil on plugs in 98... 92-97 had the coil packs with ignition wires.
@@philipthomas6808 Yep you're right....I forgot. Last one I had of that gen was a 97 then skipped to a 2000. Easy stuff to work on nonetheless!
Don't forget the fuel filter! 👍
I'm thinking a nice dark blue metallic would look good on that car. But certainly OK with letting Nick choose.
CHEERS! 🇱🇷
I bet your 100% right
That would have been my first suspect. Seems everyone forgets about fuel filters.
First words out of my mouth was fuel filter.
Agreed
Police Package aero Vic with working AC for $1100 bucks…wow that’s a deal. You should clean it up, sort it out mechanically and keep it all stock/original…those are hard to find. Check your fuel pressure and change the fuel filter…nice score Randy.
I just bought my first car from Copart. 1997 Acura integra with only 128,338 miles . For $700 I’ve got $1300 in it and she’s a solid runner. What a steal car is in excellent condition inside n out.
Yes on letting Nick decide. It’s nice that he’s back with you. I’m certain that there is much you can teach him about these cars and life in general.😊
Randy, the harder you work the luckier you get.
Greetings from Mexico City 🇲🇽
Arriva iztacalco,tlacotal:)
The Ford Crown Vic was one of the best cars ever made.
Brother I agree 100-%
👍
I agree , especially the ones built in Canada .
Yes sir
Yes I'd like to see Nick pick the color. And I saw it already got a new intake manifold so don't worry about that Shoutout from Houston, Texas
Don't forget fuel filter when getting the tuneup stuff. I have a 03 and bought it 2 years ago. Went to replace filter and it was the original one!! Car runs perfect after I replaced it.
Police Interceptor is worth investigating and saving starting with the basics - good fuel, new fuel filter etc. Sweet deal!
Tune up will probably solve your problems of get up and go. It needs nothing Randy tune up and it's golden.
Yes, great idea for Nick to get involved. It’s great to have him back. I think he likes working with you. He should pick color or even choose to wrap it.
Love your channel and your adventures.
I’ve had 3 Crown Vics and I miss have one. They are awesome cars and can take a beating. These things are bulletproof. Let Nick pick the color! Think it would make for some good content!
I see it got a newer intake manifold already, so you don't have to worry about that part
Hi Mr Shear, definitely YES!!!Let Nick choose the color, his choice will be GREAT!!LCongratulations on winning this car, I had a feeling this WIIL be your car the day I saw it at Copart in that video, and here it is, thank you for all you and your families great work on this channel, ALL the Best, God Bless you and your family.
Let Nick do it! Such an awesome idea, I’m sure he will love that!
No Ranndy ,these car are monster's, very very dependable, I had one, drove it for years 97 vic exactly like that one, it was a former cop car, you bought a hell of a car, glad you bought it
Leave the way it is, just add tint windows and the tune up.
man you picked up a great deal, being a Cop Car it was regularly maintained, I wonder did they keep the heavy duty police package with this car, I would paint it blue, what I love about these big cars is their drive, perfect long highway driving car, you can still get around 22 MPG on the highway
Love those cars. Actually thought about buying one soon as a driver sick of truck prices ready to go back to a car. I'd keep it clean and white but that's me
I replaced my last daily driver with a 2007 Grand Marquis I got a decent deal on. Not perfect but very nice. It's a luxury tank and I see about 22 mpg average. Zero regrets.
CHEERS! 🇱🇷
@@armedinbama Damn 22mpg that's nice in those big cars. I've been looking around today for those
@@frankm8533 A BIG G.M. CAR does better than that 20 MPH CITY & 26 HIGHWAY that is with the 5.7 350 LT 1 CORVETTE ENGINE I have one a 95 BUICK ROADMASTER with the very ENGINE in it my AUNT in OKLAHOMA CITY has a 94 CAPRICE CLASSIC with the exact same ENGINE & hers gets the same GAS MILAGE
@@aslamb6489 that actually comes out to about 22 miles per gallon average.
Great Score Randy!! That's got to be a fun daily driver. We have had 2 Crown Vic's and put a large amount of miles on them. When ours got like that it was a tune up and she was right back to her old self!
Awesome video Randy! This car is identical to my first car. I had a white 97 CVPI and loved it. I now have a 2005 CVPI! Thanks for the video!
That is one of the best cars made. For the age of the car it is in remarkable shape. It was an excellent price congrats. Yes let Nick choose the color. 🇨🇦
That's a dang clean old Crown Vic! Best car ever made.
Before blowing money, get a can of CRC MAF cleaner and clean out the maf really good. I had a similar problem with my old Tbird. Cleaning that MAF made a world of difference
Wow a clean aero Vic, what a beauty. Don’t see many of those in good condition like that. Shes a gem and i can’t wait to see her get all fixed up
i do love the sound of those vics especially when the cops puch the gas and rocket off down the road
Loop a hanger on the plate and secure it with the trunk. Losing plates is a hassle.
It would be pretty cool to let Nick decide the color. Also just give it an all around tune up under the hood and it should run better. Nice Crown Victoria though and great value. Love the 90's body style a lot as well. Great video as always Randy.👍
Nice pick Randy; I think that might be the best Panther car yet you have found!
Asking us if Nick should pick the color is like asking us if water is wet...... Of Course!!!!! Come on man, you knew we'd say that and I am sure you were already planning to do it. I'm glad you're getting Nick into fixing up the car's, too. It's a great father/son bonding experience and will most certainly be an experience that will shape his adulthood. You're awesome for doing that!
True dual thrush welded mufflers with side pipes Will sound Great on This old Girl
Randy, you should get a police design wrap on the crown Vic that says "AAR Headquarters"
Sounds like it needs A tunup ,fresh plugs and wires, air filter and oil change and that should fix the hesitation
I had a 97 ,put flow masters on it,The car ran and ran and by the way people would just move out of your way on the highway lol.
All stock with a tuned 4.6 and duals is the business.
I love those old crown vics. You got a great deal on it. Let Nick choose the color. I think it would be fun.
Long live the Panthers‼️
Shoutout from Waycross, Georgia
If its still doggy under heavy throttle check the cats, they could very well be clogged... also could be old plugs.
Had a Police Interceptor! That handle a lot better than most think! Good mpg, handling and very comfy!
Let nick pick the color. I’d say you are looking at a coil pack that may be getting some moisture in it. Spray it down with wd40 and let it sit for an hour, and drive it. The WD will temporarily seal the coil
Always have liked the interceptor, either Crown Vic, Mustang. Yes let Nick choose the color
probably running lean,,, start by changing the fuel filters check fuel pressure at the rails,,, etc,,,Really a nice car Randy,,, major score,,, :-)
Randy u have a winner nothings wrong so far
Let Nick pick the color. You got a real on the p-71. I had one and drove it for 250,000 miles on it. It was smooth and nice. Congrats Randy 👍👍👍👍
Randy and his diamond in the ruff crown vic addition!!! Awesome car buddy. Hope nick picks dark blue! Maaco here comes randy!
Those Police Interceptors are solid cars and they are usually well maintained. With all the cop options you can’t beat them.
I owned a 95 , it did that same thing , changed the maf and cleared it up ( caught myself doing 105 on I 40 in new Mexico )
If the A/C in a Ford works, it’s usually ice cold. Summer of 1980 I worked for a public library system with a new 1980 Ford Fairmont wagon. 200 cubic inch 6. I drove around the state 4 days a week taking borrowed books back to their home libraries. About 200 mile a day. Summer of 1980 was a hot one people my age still remember. You could hang beef in that Fairmont.
Yes, definitely let Nick choose the color. I would play around with it and do wheels, exhaust, etc., but I’d skip the light bar just to avoid the hassle and unwanted attention.
The best cars on the planet I had 95 Crown Vic as a cab. Most reliable car. The only thing the seat is uncomfortable
That crown Victoria brings me back memories I had one just like that for my first car love that car had it for 7 years
Had one of these here in the uk which cost me 5000 pounds which is nearly 6800 US dollars I loved it as I prefer left hand drive automatic
I bought one of these vehicles for my son's first car from a police auction for $500.00 just before the car market decided to go crazy. It runs and drives like a dream.
My father still owns and daily drive a 1996 Grand Marquis fully loaded. Great cars
Great car. Go ahead and replace the ball joints. They break a lot, but other than that they are rock would. The last one I owned had 278,000 miles on it when I sold it. It was still running strong. It had about 90k on when I bought it. Other than four ball joints it was rock solid.
Those vic’s sound so mean with a straight pipe lol
Aaaayyy, another Crown Vic Police Interceptor, only it's an Aero Vic this time! This is the 2nd P71 for you, you must like these P71 Crown Vics, and I don't blame you! In all seriousness, I'd have a bit of fun with this one before you eventually sell it! And honestly, a navy blue or a storm grey and spraying the pillars black to give it a more modern continuous window look would REALLY look good on that car, I feel!
It would be cool to let nick decide a good change.
This looks like a 95-97 Crown Victoria I remember when at the time especially when the Town Car and couple cars had a mild refresh and when the Lincoln Continental had a major overhaul with the oval design a year later the Ford Taurus especially when it was popular that era they made these cars really well..
Ok throttle response, I would test the TPS (throttle position sensor). You can do it with an ohm meter and I would bet you will find dead spots.
I like to see it new paint color will be burnt orange with some stripes
12:00 that’s the thing it’s legal to have lights on the car but not being on on public property etc. i just got a 2013 retired charger 132,000 miles 3100$’s fully equipped they only removed the lightbar.
Let it match the Ram's colour "two tone colour" White and Gold
I would give my left testicle to have a Crown Vic as a patrol car again and this video brought back great memories. I could close my eyes when you opened the door and started it, and it took my mind back so many years! My first take home car was a '96 back in '99 when I first started. I had numerous CV's through the years. Battle Tested and and proven rock solid time and time again. We drive Chargers now. What a sorry excuse for a car, let alone a patrol vehicle. Failures at every turn, it seems, with those things.
I'm jealous of the $2.69 per gallon...
Crown Vic is my favorite US Car. I'd have her Black with tints and a light bar and watch the traffic slow and part as you came up from behind. 😁
Normally when the coals go bad that's what it does you might want to change all the coils and I think a great idea that you let Nick pick the colors
So happy you bought that car Randy, my favorite style crown Vic! 👍
Yes let nick pick. And would suggest a borla cat back system they sound great on those vics
Nick would have so much fun picking out things for the Police car and I say yes, let Nick do his ideas !!!!!!
Coil packs, plugs, wires, clean the MAF with MAF cleaner.
Very nice police car Ford Crown Victoria. Classic car bro. The cops are used to cruise around town In that vehicle
I won a 04 PPV Crown vic last week on approval but had to back out after finding out it had a rod knock even though they listed it as run and drive. So i want to see how this turns out
Nice car. One thing I do want to mention: The blowby test you did was inaccurate. Unless you plug off all other PCV hoses, the blowby gases are going to get sucked into the intake via vacuum. You'll see a big difference if you plug off the PCV hoses and do the test again. Even healthy engines will have some very light steam pushing out, but should be no pulsing pressure behind it.
Nice old Crown Vic, tune up and a color change sounds good! Let Nick decide! 👍🏼
Those are great cars and they run forever. I have three former cop cars and they all have over 300 thousand miles on them. Nyc cab companies still runs these with millions of miles on them. Never had any transmission problems with them. They are a really good tuff car. Check air filter out and put some sea foam in it. Would not hurt to put some new plugs and wires. Clean the maf .they are a lot of fun to drive the only thing that sucks is two lane roads lol. You get behind people they still think you are a cop and drive under the speed limit
Love these 1997 ford crown Victoria's my grandpa has one same color and interior color
Try to get between 06 to 11..the 08 I believe you had with 60k,that was a beautiful car...great year,too.
Yes. Let Nick decide. Lime green would be fun !
Love the panther platform.
The 91 no ethanol premium recreational gas is great stuff
This thing is such a beast I love it
I would say leave it white, and just repair the holes from the police lights, or do a nice true blue (yes, that is the shade of blue to which I am referring)
Nice car Randy. I bet the only problem it has is that the last owner got tire of it and bought something new. A car may run and drive great but sometimes a person gets tired of it and wants a new car and that is why a good running car gets dumped. Vomit Comets are fun to drive but the only issue I had with one was that folks think it still is a cop car and everybody slows down so you never can get anywhere fast.
If you get a lightbar for it make sure you get the correct period one
Good Morning My Good Little Bro Randy Lee Shear Of Auto Auction Rebuilds
You are lucky! 1115 for a Crown Vic with 143k miles, if that were at the auction that I go to that car would be $2,000 easy. A couple weeks ago at the auction I go to a 1998 Grand Marquis with 173000 Miles with a misfire on cylinder 3 and both O2 sensors giving error codes went for 2850.
I honestly like white. Classy and let's you know it was a true cop car.
check the WHOLE FUEL LINE for secondary inline filters!!! not just the one up by the engine! :) just a thought... I have watched enuf ViceGripGaRAGE (Vice Grip Garage VGG.... Derek) to know there prolly isn't just ONE on a car that is latharigic often.... :)
this FELLER sayz, :
run the whole fuel line with the EXTRA LIGHTED PEEPERS UNDER THE THING to see what is what on the fuel delevery system...... ;)
FUEL MAKE TO GO JUICE... or wordage 2 dat effekt!
My opinion go with switchblade silver .
I currently have a 1983 240d as a great gift as a holy grail.
Paint it with a nice modern paint, some metallic gray, or similar. Bring it to this century.
Check the fuel filter. Sitting up with ethanol probably some water in it.
Let Nick decide for the color! It must be amazing!
That reminds me of my first car a white 1994 crown Vic with red leather interior and digital gauge cluster
You can't go wrong with a panther platform vehicle won't be long and Nick is going to be driving hold on to this one he may need it
Pearl white! Also check the gaps around the trunk, on camera they look odd.
