Lucky! I'm a sucker for a fox in that color combo.  Nice car.

That's sick though. Paint is the icing on the cake, and congrats on the motor score.

 
I don't know what that was, but I want the last 3min of my life back. Thanks all for the compliments.

My sincerest apology. Really. Im sorry, I thought you'd find it funny. I pissed myself watching it and upon showing it to them, now my friend his dad and I start immitating that guy everytime someone says "...look at..." in any context LOL. Different strokes!

I'm trying to score a straight six version of the same thing :)

 
You can't beat that combo. Downside is the 200 though has never been great for fuel economy, though.

There was a minter on CL in Indiana for $1000

I picked up an AOD, x-member, 11" brake spindles, mustang alum valve covers, fuel rail, and O2 sensor harness last night. Actually on my way now to get a mass air computer harness and A9L.

I'm going to put the 5-lug crown Vic rotors and calipers on it, but undecided on wheels. What do you'd recommend? I don't want anything "flashy". IE cobras, FR500, etc. And no "drag" setup. I kinda like the starion/conquest wheels. But those are 4-lug.

Maybe turbines from a GM/Vic/Towncar? SVO wheels are bright and polished but the design is simple. The S197 mustang V6 wheels are pretty sharp too, someone on grandmarq.net has em on a 2 door Vic and it looks sharp. Also the last two generations of Explorers have had a pretty good variety of wheels that aren't boring but aren't gaudy either.

So tempted to put some early P71 16" wheels on this thing.

Some of the crown vics had that honeycomb-mesh style like the ARE ones that fit thundercats/4 lug. I always see 'em and it makes me think the car ought to be the Ford version of the Marauder or something lol. I think GMs might have worn them as well?

The 96-02 HPP crown vic/marquis wheels would be fine....close to the 90-92 mark 7 wheel....that would look sweet IMHO.
