Hello from TX im a Ford fan in general mostly foxbodys. Ben on the hunt for a F100 and a wagon of some sort so I just acquired a 86 LTD Crown Vic Wagon with 76k documented miles. Car is super clean and runs great as well as the ride. AC blows super cold and cruise works great. MY kids love the jump seats in the back as well. Car has 200o model front control arms, knuckles and brakes. Largest sway bar possible front and rear and has been lowered with speedway springs about a 1.5 inches the previous owner says. I wanna go lower though. Wheels are mercury lace BBS 16s I also plan to go up to 18s as well. Any for for more power and lowering the car more would be great.

Welcome from another Texan (DFW area)! Nice ride.
If you decide to sell those wheels after you get 18s... post up here. They will sell.

Welcome!
Do you get any exhaust coming in the back window when it's down? Looks good like that either way.1990 Country Squire - under restoration

my car starts and it has AC. Yours doesn't start and it has no AC. Seems obvious to me.

Nice, another wagon!
Someday in the very distant future I'd like to get another wagon. I sure miss the one I had (R.I.P.).
