    My 1997 Crown Victoria

    Alright. After I lost my previous job(conveniently right after buying this thing), I had to sell my beloved '89 Towncar. Picked this up as a replacement, bought it with 124,145kms from a local Honda dealership sitting in the AS-IS lot for $1200. One owner car, as expected, an old guy. Its Light Prairie Tan with a matching interior and is about as base model as it comes.

    Here is a pic of when I first got it:



    I have a huge LED fetish..if you wanna call it that, lol. Every bulb in the car except for the idiot lights, high beams and tail light bulbs are LED converted. I currently have purple interior bulbs and plate lights, 1200LM white reading lamps, 6000K low beam HIDs, 1000LM LED signal switchbacks(they glow white when the driving lights are on and turn orange when the signal is activated), I have white LEDs in the climate controls and gauge cluster, a red LED panel in the cigarette lighter light(its modified so it shines a nice ambient light onto the floor). I also have an LED trunk light and white LED cornering lamps. I also have white 1600LM white reverse lights(they're fucking bright, even with my 5% tint)





    I had purple signal lights in for a short while but took them out.



    The only mods I have other than LEDs are, a 2.25" stainless H-pipe and catback with Thrush Glasspacks and Magnaflow tips, an HPP rear swaybar, 16" HPP alloys, a hacked up airbox that consists of a 07 P71 bottom with my factory Aero top, tinted tail lights, 5% Limo tint on the rear and 15% tint on the front doors, and LX signal housings.

    Tach setup:



    Future plans for this car involve: 3.55 gears with a trak lok, a Taurus SHO spoiler, Mach 1 front lip, custom gauge overlays OR a Marauder cluster, white 1995 gauge needles, custom gauge overlays, LED puddle lamps and a 2" drop all the way around. Possibly a J-mod(if I ever get comfortable enough to attempt it), P71 driveshaft and some kind of torque converter. I hope to get many more miles out of this car
