In the mid 70s I had a 69 Road Runner with a 383. They ran pretty good. A friend of my mom's had a 72 Ford Tbird with a 429 that he bought new. He wasn't into hotrodding but more luxury and comfort. Once we were going down the road and he stepped into it to pass someone and it pulled like a freight with 4 people on board. I believe it may have been faster than my 383 Road Runner or would at least give it a good run.

The Kansas Highway Patrol had one of these on The Kansas Turnpike. Theirs were in the late 70's

I had a canadian 1973 Ford LTD X Interceptor Police car with a special 429 from a car lot when I was 16. It was incredibly fast. The needle would go just a bit over 140MPH I would race the local hot rods and win. True story. wished I could post a pic of me standing in front of it here. the car was 7 years old when I bought it.

Those sport seats must be great in the corners 😎

Had them as toys when opening the cereal box, did not no it was the Ford 500

I have a crown Vic

Nice

Please do a full walk through tour. We are looking at this plan and this is the only video that we can find.

Beautiful car! I think you're very fortunate to find it.

Were the malaise era police interceptors “de-tuned” and as heavily burdened with performance-hindering emission controls as the gen pop vehicles?

Very interesting car. I recall a neighbour had a galaxie 500 version.

Southern cops with a license to do anything. Great job

All x police vehicles should be scraped.sign Canada

That was a great review of the car and what it was back in the day.

My 1971 Chevelle SS out ran them all the time. We rigged our cars with a switch to turn out all of the rear lights.

The Ford 385-Series big blocks are torque monsters, as are the FE-Series engines before them.

Learned to drive in a 1972 ltd with a 427 4 v. Two door hard top. Was unstoppable power

I would daily drive that minus the Livery what I nice looking car

Dam nice car...

Better hope the road is straight...

Good engine, slow transmission.

That was a great video 😊

One of the four sealed beam lamps in the roof beacon not functioning.

Super cool! 🇨🇦👍🏼

Where's Gator McKlusky when you need him?

Say brother you get tired of it. I’d love to buy it. I’m a 68-year-old man that remembers those cars well maybe too well.

Them ol 429 PI engines would fry them little skinny rear tires all the way to the cords haha

Classic cubic inches will ALWAYS be better than any turbo. Bring back the true Muscle!!!

“It’s got a cop motor,cop tires, cop suspension” But it’s not a MOPAR.

Connecticut State Police had these 429 Ford Custom 500's in 1971 and 1972, and then in 1973 went to light, powder blue 1973 Plymouth Fury I's with the 440 HP.

"1972 Ford Custom 500 429 Police Interceptor"" "Great Respect" for this 1972 Ford Custom 500 Police Interceptor but it would not match the high speed performance and acceleration of a 440 HP 1972 Dodge Polara or a 440 HP 1972 Plymouth Fury, with a 3:23 rear axle.

Smokes a Crown Vic everytime...

Hellcat says…hold my beer..leaves LTD in the dust…😂😂

That picture at 3:25 is a Chevy

LOL these things take like 9.9 seconds to get to 60 mph. Supposedly they could top out at 160 mph but in the 3 hours it takes to get there, a dodge neon could get 100 miles ahead.

When i was on the job i had one as a patrol unit, dame fine car. Dark green, black side walls, dashboard bubble light, fun to drive. Would not mind having another one.

I had a 71 LTD brougham with the 429 engine and it would burn the tires. I love old school police cars and yours is really cool. Thanks for the sharing it with us.

I'd like to see them put a 427 solid lifter motor in that car.. I believe he would s*** his pants

Great powerful engines too bad. The cars were so butt ugly.😂

I would love this car

Jeez, at 03:16-18, probably not too many people were dumb enough to mess with that trooper at the right of the picture...

So this is what jealousy feels like.

Burford t justice wouldn't have been any prouder

I purchased a429pi engine out of a wrecked 72 arizona state police car,installed in my 70 mustang sportsroof in 1977, still have that car today,it is beast above 5000 rpm

I remember seeing the old decommissioned rear side window mounted Radar antenna in the storage room in the Police Department. We had front and rear mounted radar Kustom Signals 5000 in our Crown Victoria Police Interceptor.
