      Could be a 351W. In this vintage both had the 2bbl VV carburetor and telling them apart is almost impossible unless you read the emissions label. I've had about every combination and permutation of 302/351 and transmission you can imagine, including a very rare 89 I bought new with the 351W and Trailer Tow Package. My brother also had an 86 Colony Park with the 351 and towing package

    Ford came out with the Crown Victoria (on the Panther platform, not the 1955 Crown Victoria) in 1980 replacing the LTD Landau. That car appears to be a 1982. (Look at the grille. Ford used that grille on the 1979-82 LTDs with four headlights. I know, I had one. They also made one with 2 headlights that was a cheaper model.) 1982 is the first year they used the Ford Blue Oval with that style grille. If you look closely at 11:28 the fender badging says "automatic overdrive." It does NOT say "Electronic Fuel Injection" like the 1983 and later Crown Vics did. I can't see under the air cleaner, but, if the intake manifold has a valley pan it is NOT a 5.0 liter (302 c.i.d.) engine. It is a 4.2 liter (255 c.i.d.) which is likely what that car has. Also, unless someone has changed the carburetor, it has a Motorcraft 7200 VV (variable-venturi) carburetor. (I changed many of those rubber diaphragms when they went bad.) IIRC that car with the AOD transmission got really good gas mileage. Those taillights look to be from a 1983+ car. So, the grille might have been changed. The wheels are 14" and in 1984 15 " was optional. If you look over behind the Duraspark electronic ignition box on the fender is the engine computer. So, it appears to be an '82. Maybe it was wrecked in the back. Great video!

    I like the content of todays video. Detail info and a little banter is good. You guys do some amazing work on some pretty badly aged vehicles. The other comment about the engine should be correct. It should be a 302. A modest horse power version based on the year model. Too bad about the other commenters having to replace a seal at 60k miles. 302’s are generally just about bullet proof. Keep up the good work.

Just set the vehicle free so others can enjoy it.

    This is not a valuable car beyond any personal attachment. Very few American cars from this era hold value. Sadly the cars of my youth that I rode in and drove were largely poorly engineered and designed. Pretty much true across the Big 3 car makers. Very fun video though!

    First time I see those hub caps on a Crown Vic. I thought only Fairmonts came out with those. Looking nice.

    Great video, guys! Lov e the channel.
    That is a Panther platform Ford LTD Crown Vic. Most of them came with the 5.0 liter Windsor V8 out of the Mustang, rated at a fire-breathing 150hp.
    As bad as the car was when you brought it in, it's pretty amazing how good it looks. Honestly, it looks about the same as any other Crown Vic from the era. Cheers!

    Mr. B. Here ! 👀😎👍☕️🍩. Rust is the big question, sitting close to the ground , one with out even looking at the brake system and fuel . Guys I have used house wash mold remover , a car in that state won’t hurt it ! Body paint guys will say not too , it works and will give you a very good picture of what you are working with . Good luck on clean !

    I had a four-door just like it. Threw some cragar SS rims with white letter tires on her and she really turned heads. Loved that car. I bought it for $200. Fixed it up sold it two years later for 1,000. Miss it

    It would be so cool if you guys showed a before and after pic of the vehicle just before you start the final walk around. You do such great work I always find myself going back to the beginning of the vid to remember how it looked when you started and then comparing to the end result

    Suggestion for the future, my dad & I have used a mild solution of hydrochloric acid on various places on vehicles before (even on paint) with success.

    When you pull off the covers on the wheels wet them first to loosen the dirt on the clips so the don’t break when you pry them off

  • @draggonsgate
    @draggonsgate 10 місяців тому

    This broke my heart. Those panther body coupes are rare as hen's teeth. Savings grace is she's in pretty good shape. Typical steering wheel cracks and dash disintegration. Was surprised the chrome on the wheel stalks wasn't peeling. Depending on the year of the Vic, depended on the engine. More than likely this is Ford's 302. In '83 on it was the only engine available except for police cars which still had the 351 available. 80-82 the standard engines were ... in 80, the 302. In 81 and 82 the 255. The 255 was a dawg. Ugh.
