Just purchased a 1991 240 ( auto) wagon with 166k on it for $ 450. Bucks....I couldnt pass up this deal. She started up and purred like a kitten even with most of the exhaust missing! I currently own a 1997 850 and haven't had a brick since my 1987 wagon about 10 years ago. That's how long it's been since I was on the brickboard! Shes Been sitting for about 2 years, and I'm planning on replacing all houses, belts (including. Timing), full exh, all fluids and trans flush, tune up, wipers and tires. I've got a couple of questions: Am I asking for trouble if I switch to synthetic oils if she has been using dino oil all these years? What's the right/ best coolant, differential, and trans oil to use? Anyone know about using Crown Vic rims, and what size tires will fit without interference?Thanks and I will keep u posted!, Bob
