Video

Good video. If I ever need to do this I'll come back to this video.... I see you have split bench seats. I have the same. Any idea where to find good seat covers for those?

Great video!!! Good to know a fairly straight forward process exists for this problem.

Idk how you working on the car in long sleeves and pants. You had to been hot 😂

My AC is cold but doesn't blow out the dash vents, only the windshield and floor vents and there is a hissing noise right behind the AC and heat controls when It's turned to the off position. Do you know why it would be hissing? Maybe a leak idk

finally a good video on this. I need to reinforce the hinges on my mode door so this is definitely helpful - thanks

Pierce might as well start his own CZcams channel at this point 😂 How dare no test drive... 😢

Bought my first 2007 TC 4 $1042 OTD .... LOVE IT! Always been a GM BIG BODY Sedan or 2Dr Coupe man... LOVED my 4 77 and 1 73 2 Door CUTLASS' My 4 Door '07 DTS CADDY TOO... Till Bullwinkle hit it! I wanted a FULL SIZE AMERICAN CAR, not a FAKE SUV!!! My DTS NORTHSTAR still runs STRONG... But it's POURING OIL!!! If I gonna drive an "SUV" I want a K5 BLAZER or BRONCO... Not an EQUINOX!!! I decided to try an LTC "GLORY FRIED FORD" ... "I'm RUINT!!! These PANTHER's are HOT! In Retired LEO's, DODGE'S are CHEAPER in GA I hope I'm able to buy 1 More LTC or CV OR a MARAUDER!

Brother I just scored a 2007 P71 Florida car for $3K, 175K miles runs great, no rust. Deals can still be had.

Where can I buy one at and can it work for a 08 p71

Some of Best cars ever made (2002 Merq GM here). Good for 300 k miles or more. Baby that car is beautiful

I live in Michigan and spray my P7B's every year with Fluid Film - not a spec of rust has formed since :)

great channel and videos.

such a great cvpi channel - not saying I want anything to go wrong with your intake, but I certainly wouldn't be mad about a tutorial vid 8)

Looks legit! I would definitely do the same if I could source one for free like you did. Seems to be a no brainer. I have tapped my front bumper on a wall before so this would protect the bumper from that. Do you notice any difference in how the car handles now?

Ever have to do the trans cooler lines? Mine recently started leaking from the compression fitting to the rubber line. lots of vids on cutting the fitting and replacing the rubber line. I looked at this and doing it on the car will be a PIA. If I'm going to remove the line I figure might as well just replace it. Can find the individual lines for like $30.00 or so.

oil on the O-ring not necessary but makes you feel better. 🙂

I'm new to all this i wish someone could make a video on the real important differences between all the panthers and the older police cars

WOW that looks great what do you call those hoses? Do they make them for Lincolns? What's the difference between these and the black colored rubber hoses? Thanks>

Nice video thanks for the tip. Did that car used to be white?

My 07 was a Cherokee Indian Nation NC P71 that was traded in at a Chattanooga stealership in 2015 with 121K. I bought it in 10-16. It is up to 144.3K. I used a turkey baster to empty the fluid tank 3 or 4 times in between driving and it looks like new fluid now. Always do my own work. Had a 11 P7B since 2018 from Daviess county KY that is up to 147.3K. The hardest thing I have had to do was change the intake manifold. How about you? Steve Kentucky

Yep! I'm only at 521k looking forward to the million mile roll. 👍

Yeah, I didn't set out to intentionally buy a CVPI but needed an extra car. My '08 came from Delaware and yes....the rocker panels are toasty. Overall though the car was well maintained and is in good shape.

Thanks man. I live in Northern VA and we also get ice and snow, just not as bad as the northern states. I absolutely never take my beautiful 2007 Town Car in any type of weather except sun and dry, therefore she has absolutely zero rust. Thanks for the video….

awesome! Thank you for sharing brother. question where your stands are placed. i want to change my motor oil but don't want to just tilt the car up from the front i want it level? Thanks. new to all this

And for the tool in the video, I found "TPMS19", is that it?

Hi, can you make a video about how the transmission should operate in OK state? I feel a "jolt" when stationary and shifting from P to R/D. Or from R to D and vice versa. Unfortunately I dont have anybody around with cvpi to compare how it should feel..

Your AZ beige Vic got 200 likes on my instagram!

Are these numbers on the diff?

That crown vic sound good!

I don't think it needs to be idling with AC on the whole time but that's just me...

A an extra overdrive gear or two would allow you to have your cake and eat it too. Can only do so much with 4 gears.

I got my first panther car, a 2010 p7b about a month ago, i realized it doesn’t have performance improved heads though they’re the non pi heads, i could tell by the intake but i thought after 2001 they all had PI heads. Nonetheless the car is still a beast and im glad i got it. Its got x5 axle, 165,000 miles and around 6,000 idle hours. Its became my favorite car after being a dream for a long time

The 2011 Crown Victoria Police Interceptor definitely was a vehicle built to withstand the test of time, because of these vehicles are just bulletproof like that. I mean they could seriously be abused and keep going, and that's kind of an expectation for a police car. And that's just me speaking as a civilian that's interested in law enforcement...

Nice one! Cheers from Germany. A question about FlexFuel. While Ford started the badging in 2009, what was the first model year, that really could run on E85 without damaging the engine. I have a 2007 P71 and was wondering the whole time.

A few months ago got an 08 ex Nevada highway patrol detective car for $4k at 170k miles and 2100 idle hours. Surplus vehicle so it was only used for detective/admin use. The guy I got it from was an actor who took great care of it. Once I got it I ceramic coated it and gave it new front struts that’s all it needed. Also came with LED spotlights ready to install. The Frenchmen and British pilots at the airport offered $7500 for it and a couple others gave me their numbers in case I ever sell. Sucks that a few years ago pops wouldn’t let me get one with less mileage when they were going for $1-2k before I turned 18. After buying one myself. I can no longer find good ones below 6k A couple good condition ones care going for 11-18k and one just sold for $14k in my city at 110k miles. Problem is people are actually paying that much so that’s justifying the price hike

Be prepared to spit your drink out. I spent $17.5k on my South Carolina CVPI SAP. See your Part 1 video for details.

lol I bought a 01 Grand Marquis that a guy got from his grandpa passing that was garaged it's entire life for $2750 a week ago. 165k miles with zero rust and new tires in 2019 right before it was parked. Had to buy a battery but I drove it home and parked it. Still need to change the trans fluid and the oil but it should last me another 10 years easy. I just started stocking up on oil and parts and it was my third panther.

Hi, would this be almost the same for a 2007 Lincoln TC?

man you aint lying!

There’s a guy that lives in upstate New York that collects them.

A new subscriber from the UK 🇬🇧 here. I love these Ford Crown Victoria Police cars. Just my opinion but the front end of a white or black car with a push is menacing (probably just a movie thing but lol) The Ford Explorer Police Utility SUV is a cool car too. Its nice to hear a cops opinion of these cars, love the channel- keep up the great work bro ..

Those Virginia Vics are so nice, I got one former Henrico County police car with 51k miles and 2600 hours, no rust and clean interior, did an oil change, drove it from Chicago to Indy and back to Chicago, now with around 6000 more miles in total, not a single problem other than a minor tire leak repair, it has the 3.55 axle which does kill the fuel economy tbh.

It’s not easy to get one for a reasonable price. But I got lucky and picked up an 05 Detective version for a great price last week and out of the 7 I’ve owned it is the nicest. Another at the same auction that was a little newer and nicer went for 3k more.

The 910s size filter got me on my 2011 Vic. I have several 820s size filters already for my '02 F150 and an '03 Vic, never new the later model used the smaller filter. Got the filter off the '11 and thought it weird they used a smaller filter, till I went to install the larger filter and I could not get it to thread on (after fighting to get it in place). Had to make a run to the parts store to finish the oil change. It is annoying that the filter dumps onto the power steering rack. Makes such a mess.

Got to get that rust out before it spreads

March 2024 - purchased a 2011 Grand Marquis for 4500 with 160K miles from Georgia with no rust in Michigan. Just gotta keep looking for good deals.

I’ve seen his car on other videos

Seems finding a "good" fresh from auction CVPI is getting harder and harder these days. $3,000 for the car and having to replace the transmission being seen as a good deal shows how things are getting. I have bought 2 CVPI's this year, both in May, both Texas cars and rust free. Can't imagine ever getting a northern car. The '03 I got for $2,250 with 112,000 miles on it. It has full carpet and wheel covers, cloth buckets and vinyl rear seat. Never had a light bar, only 1 antenna in roof, had a cage but removed before purchase, but rear doors and windows work just fine (except a flakey lock actuator and bad window motor on pass side). Was a Sheriff detective car per the maintenance guy that I talked to when I picked it up, and was a "spare" vehicle for general county use for the previous 4 years before being sold with minimal use, it sat for over a year not being driven before I got it. Rear calipers were sticking bad, so had to replace those. Bad battery. Has the bad white paint with a few small and medium sections missing, a bit of surface rust, but nothing bad. Rest of the body is fine except for a dent above the rear drivers tire. Also needed 5 tires, the ones on there were 8 years old, with 2 being in bad shape. Have spent ~$1,800 getting everything sorted and up to par. Still need to get an aftermarket alarm to get keyless entry)and need to find another similar year Panther to grab the stuff to add cruise, but car is a good to go daily now. The other one is a black '11 CVPI SAP with 170,000 miles, but only 650 idle hours. Was $3,350. Has cruise, power front seat with built in arm rests, cloth rear seat, CD player. Was a Texas DPS car (again, no lights installed, so some type of supervisor/admin vehicle?) before it was given to the Texas Department of Emergency Management. Spent another $1,500 on it getting up all sorted (tires, battery, all fluids, serpentine belt and radiator hoses, headlight housing, window motor, about the same stuff as the '03). Roof is a little rough, but no paint coming off, no rust anywhere on it. 2 antenna holes on roof, no lightbar ever installed. It is also now fully sorted and my kid is driving it.
