Walk around of my new 1991 FORD LTD Country Squire wagon

My tax refund and a big job I completed gave me some extra cash, so when I found this wagon on craigslist, I had to have it. I'd been causally surfing CL for a '90 or '91 Country Squire or Colony Park for years, but never found one affordable or in good shape until now. This wagon was actually traded in by the original owners at a local Ford dealer for a new car!

    cool! I've got a '91 colony park; I've been doing a lot of work to it. Things it needed --everything rubber or electrical died of old age, and both the radiator and heater core were clogged-- and things it didn't need, like a subwoofer, tach, and HO engine ;-)

    My grandparents had one of these things in the early 90s. Whole damn family would pile into it, and my brother and I as kids would ride on the fold-out side-facing seats in the back. Mom hated those seats because, looking back now, they were pretty dangerous, but I thought they were so cool. Good times!

    This 1991 is the last year for the wagon bodystyle as it would be dropped entirely when the 1992 bodystyle of the LTD Crown Victoria/Grand Marquis arrived in the spring of 1991.

    three things i'd do to it: delete the smog pump and run a shorter belt, two take out the y-pipe and buy the H-pipe to run the stock duals and get good flowing mufflers, or run none at all because they sound really good with just the 4 cats and the rest of the stock pipe, and three add the optional wagon or police sway bars so it doesn't handle like a boat, and get the cargo coil springs to keep it from sagging

    lynol damn you my friend, now im looking for another one lol. theres a white squire here in town, actually 2 of them. white with wood grain. both run excellent. and a 3rd one 15 miles away withan engine in dodgy shape. but the odometer, you can find a replacement cluster once you pinpoint the the mileage you can put its replacement in. its legal. currently its a TMU, which is no big deal tbh but my friend you scored on that.

    Nice car but it cannot compare to your 76 Grand Safari and 76 Catalina Safari!!! Whatever happened to your 76 Grand Safari?? I was hoping to see videos on you restoring it?? I grew up with one. What do you do with all these cars?? I think I told you in another comment that I had a 76 Caprice Estate in mint condition and I barely have enough time for it... I don't know what I would do if I owned all these cars.... I guess you have to be satisfied with imperfection because it would take a fortune to fix them all up???
