2003 Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor - Car Craft 'Build a Panther' Car
Framed car-show placard describing the history of a 2003 Crown Victoria Police Interceptor feature car.
This document is a framed car-show display card describing a 2003 Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor that was formerly the Car Craft Magazine "Build a Panther" feature car. According to the text, the car began its service life as a Santa Barbara County Sheriff patrol car stationed in Lompoc, California. In 2008, it was purchased at auction by John McGann of Car Craft magazine, and over the following years it appeared in Car Craft articles covering an engine build, suspension improvements, do-it-yourself paint, and other projects. The card states the car was subsequently purchased by Matthew Tatosian and Victoria Levesque in December 2013. Readers are directed to www.carcraft.com for more information about the vehicle. The card includes two photographs of the black Crown Victoria: one parked outside an industrial building (with a Car Craft logo watermark) and one being driven through cones on a paved test course. This is not a technical reference document — it contains no fuse data, wiring information, part numbers, or specifications — but it provides the provenance and ownership history of this specific magazine project vehicle.
