2005 Crown Victoria P71 Build

The wheels on the car had seen better days so I picked up some new 17” steel wheels from Ford along with some new center caps I found on EBay

Nice! Surprised they let you grab them. I know there's alot of goodies that are left behind in decommissioned cruisers.

Those were at the pick and pull they literally had no clue what they were paid like $20 for the tray and sticks just thought they were kinda cool to have, and there definitely can be, the first weekend I had it I pulled out the rear seat, trunk carpet searched the rest of the car and looked for anything that I wouldn’t want to be caught with and found nothing luckily

Then recently I’ve been having some fuel related starting issues, took it to my mechanic and he discovered when the fuel pump was replaced last the wiring wasn’t ran correctly and burned on the exhaust so between that and the pump dying a new pump will resolve my issues, then when the tank was dropped you have to pull the filler neck out and part of that broke and with New Years it hasn’t came as fast as it would normally so should have it back together Monday

So now you’re pretty much caught up to where I am now, when I get the car back I’ll post a couple other things I’ve done recently. In terms of things I’d like to do I’m planing on getting it tuned in a week or two, get the front bumper painted and installed, repaint the roof, tint the windshield and most likely do a HID retrofit of the lights and just do routine maintenance and fix things when they break and maybe do a few small things here and there to make it unique

You usually can find at least 1 bullet under a seat.

You should check out this guy's channel. He buys decommissioned Crown Vics, and usually finds some goodies in them.

I was kinda shocked I found nothing, I found a lawyers business card and a Juul lol, there could be stuff under the rubber flooring which I might pull up and put carpet in one day and I’ll see what’s under there
