    The 2 ton turd - Leaky Valve Seals 1995 Crown Victoria

    This is the legendary 1995 crown victoria......AKA leaky valve seals.

    This car is SO comfy (until the lack of lumbar support starts to annoy you), it takes bumps like a champ, it always has its small little issues, but its my first car and it will ALWAYS hold a place in my heart. This car is hard for me to give up, its the car that my grandpa told me to get and told me where to get the money for. In 2005, we got this car for 1500 bucks from a family friend, and my gramps who was like my dad told me where to get the money after he was hospitialized and later died a month later due to a accident with a drunk driver.

          The rust is under the paint on the fenders. It aint worth it to fix it at this point from what i see. If i do the seals, i should send the heads out, and if i send them out, i might as well get a new motor. I will see.

            What?!? Not worth it to fix the rust? That's unthinkable!
