1972 Ford LTD, 400ci V8, 77k miles. Family gift.

New battery and she started right up. Tires look 20 years old, right front is flat. On the lookout for a used set if I can manage it.

Side pipes, air shocks, and a set of Torq Thrusts with big-n-littles. Maybe a big whip antenna on the trunk.

That really depends on how full the gas tank is.

It's got a fair amount of spare change in the seats.

Widened steelies (maybe some 16s for better tire selection), cop car/dog dish hub caps, tint windows, lower it 1.5" to 2", dual exhaust with cool sounding mufflers (if no duals now...), and drive it while the rest of us turn green with envy.

Fill the wheel wells with Goodyear Eagle NASCAR takeoffs. Black steelies. Open exhaust. DO NOT WASH.

Roll.
