HI All,
Long time no see.
Back in 2000-2003 I had a 95 Signature/Spinnaker, Green with Ivory/Evergreen interior moonroof, etc. which was traded in at 175k for a 2000 Crown Vic with HPP, I then drifted away from LOL.
A year ago I got married, the Crown Vic front end was completely shot with all joints either seized or floppy and thus I traded the Vic in for a Brand New 2007 Redfire V6 manual Stang with parchment interior.
But alas I still pined for my Town Car and all her luxury, constanly checking the ads for a car with my old car's color schemes and options.
As my wife and I approached our one year anniversary and she told me we must go to maryland for a job interview for her.
Well long story short i now am the proud owner of a 1995 Signature/Spinnaker Green with evergreen/ivory interior with a moonroof, JBL sound, heated seats, compass, CD changer, 16 inch rims, and only 79K miles, which was an anniversary present and one heck of a surprise!
Sadly I have forgotten the areas to keep an eye on with these cars, I know the engine and transmission is bulletproof as long as certain maintenance tasks are performed.
The car has been impeccably maintained as far as I can tell and it even has very little tranny shudder
My question is, what should I do now to prevent future costly problems? am I right in assuming the power steering system can be an issue if not flushed? What would you guys suggest I do without further delay if you were in my position?
Your expertise is greatly appreciated
Thanks
Charles
