I have decided I have put enough money into this car and am going to get something different
1998 P71 Crown Vic, 127k miles, white
The good-
Runs, drives, stops, fresh NYS inspection
The bad-
rusty, needs front tires and an alignment badly, Check engine light came on recently and has a slight hesitation under load (I havent scanned the code but probably a coil pack)
I have owned the car for 18 months and have put about 17k on it
Since I have owned it I have replaced the brakes all the way around, rotors, pads, calipers, parking brake ect
I put a set of low mileage cats on it, replaced 2 coil packs and 2 months ago it got a new gas tank/evap system and tank straps to the tune of $700
The windshield was replaced about 3 months ago
I have all reciepts
It has a May 09 inspection on it, the car is pretty rusty, the drivers front fender lip is rusted out , both rockers are essentially shot and it has rust over the rear wheel wells, the frame and floors are solid
The interior is in decent shape no major problems
It has snows on the rear I bought new last fall
Overall with front tires it can be driven and with some minor work will serve someone for a long time to come
It gets aprox 18mpg city and about 24mpg highway
asking $750 firm for it
