    Hi I'm new

    My name is Ron, and I am living in St Charles, MO. Where do I start, OK what I have had in the past. 1982 ford LTD SSV (from a department in northern Illinois, maybe Chicago), and I had a 1999 ford crown Victoria LX (I sold it to my neaice) what I have now, let's start with the non panthers, a 1988 Ford F250 XLT Lariat, and a 1988 Ford Mustang GT with T-Tops (very much modified). And now the Panthers a 2007 Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor (for the city of St. Charles MO) and a 1988 Lincoln Town Car, that is about to get a slick top conversation. I was told that some folks might be interested in this.

                Welcome. As an owner of an '88 LTC I am interested to see how your slicktop conversion comes out. You'll be keeping the opera lamps, right? Also interested in the '88 F-250, is that a sticker-shift?

                    There's going to be a large fiberglass piece that is under the vinyl top and the whole rear window is held in by it. More or less, you'll need to fabricate a new roof and rear window frame. It'll be a very big job.

                    That is how you're supposed to jack it.
