"Came too close to dying to stop living now!"

Good luck restoring you Crown Victoria, my every first collector car and restoration was a black and white 55 solid top crown built in Summerville, Mass. One piece of advise do not convert it to 12 volts, you will cause more problems than you will  fix, plus if you ever had to sell it the 12 volt convertion will keep the true collectors from buying it.

Thanks for all the great replies and encouragement, it's really appreciated. I mean to do a post about the general status of the car, going over things area by area, but a combination of being busy and disorganized, has pushed that back. I think I'll just post about areas as I get to work on them.



Wow, Ted, I'm a bit overwhelmed. I'd love to share the cars story with people I think it's fascinating, and it was stories as much as the cars them selves that got me so hooked on the hobby. I don't think I could write my way out of a paper, bag, but I'd definitely consider writing an article, especially if I get replies to the various feelers I have out there looking to find out more about here for the blank areas.

More to come shortly, so I'll just leave you all with this teaser photo:
