Spark plugs, coil on plugs, transmission. It depends on how it was maintained and driven. I have never figured why anybody would want a P71 as most of the are not treated very well. A standard Crown Vic, Mercury Marquis or Lincoln Town car would be a much better vehicle built on the same outstanding panther platform.
