    Nice car. I found front sway bar bushings made a surprisingly huge difference

    85 4 door 351 Civi Crown Victoria - Summer daily driver, sleeper in the making, and wildly inappropriate autocross machine
    160KMs 600cfm holley, shorty headers, 2.5" catted exhaust, 255/295 tires, cop shocks, cop swaybars, underdrive pulley, 2.73L gears.
    waiting for install: 3.27's, Poly bushings, boxed rear arms, 2500 stall converter, ported e7's, etc

    06 Mazda 3 hatch 2.3L 5AT (winter beater that cost more than my summer car)

        I have to admit I've never heard a Town Car called a whip before

        Nice car! Looks great.

          I do not, but I thought they made a good backdrop for the photos, I actually work with food processing, doesn't make a very dramatic background.

            Nice ride. I like the photos. How'd it feel to go off road.

              Haha, I went pretty slow. I had an '86 TC in high school, that thing handled the occasional ski slope just fine. I would imagine with the air suspension, Bertha would do even better :P

                I can't say I've seen that color before…do you know the name?

                Nice looking car!

                You probably have a leak from the gasket for the HVAC system at the firewall leaking into the cabin. moonroof is probably fine.

                  Cowl air intake sealed up
                  A/C recharged, hopefully that lasts, otherwise leak hunt time.

                    Make sure you add a heavy duty trans cooler if you are going to tow.
