1984 Ford Crown Victoria LTD review from North America
"A solidly built product of workmanship!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
When purchased, the car overheated. A new radiator solved that problem. Basic fluid changes and new tires helped. Slight stalling and idling ensued, but was solved by a basic tune up, i.e. rotor cap, wires and plugs. It now runs great.
General comments?
It starts right up and goes, but the engine at idle while at a traffic light is so silent, no vibration, you have to turn down the radio to hear a hum. It floats down the bumpiest roads, and the steering is buttery. The interior is class and comfort, with power seats that can be adjusted to suit the most particular driver, very cushy too.
