Up for sale is a 1998 Ford Taurus SHO sedan. The car is a one owner vehicle in amazing shape! Black with Gray Leather interior, Automatic and fully serviced with a rebuilt transmission at 130,000 miles. Rare find in this condition!
This vehicle was owned by a woman in Utah who had bought the vehicle in 1998 with 8 miles on the title. She owned the vehicle her whole life and brought the car to Florida when she relocated. The vehicle has been strictly up kept and fully serviced its whole life. Due to a losing of her eyesight she sold the car. This car has been so well taken care you will have no complaints with the car.
The exterior is black and is equipped with SHO emblems, limited chrome wheels, dual exhaust, spoiler, heated mirrors, and body effects. The paint is in very nice shape and has been taken care of very well. The vehicle is remarkably rust free and shows little signs of being from the north. The underneath of the vehicle has been inspected and showed no rot or rust areas. The gaps and channels where water runs through are very clean and rust free also. The vehicle has a few minor scratches around the vehicle but nothing major. The driver side rear door has a few tiny dents (see picture). The exterior of the car is very straight, the doors shut and open very nice. The trunk and hood have no pinched areas and all the door locks work great. The vehicle is also equipped with a keyless entry remote and keypad entry on the driver door.
The interior of the vehicle is a grey leather with bucket seats and plenty of luxury features. The power seats work perfectly and have no issues. The vehicle console and dash is clean with no cracks or broken pieces. The stereo system sounds very nice and is equipped with a Casette player and a multiple disc CD player. The air conditioning works well, the fans and all the buttons all work without flaw. The gauges on the vehicle work with no issues. The carpet is in very nice shape with no stains. The floor mats up front are showing some dirt stains but nothing major. The driver seat has one small tear in the side of the seat which is very common over time. the driver seat and all other seats have no stains. The trunk is super clean and was lined with sheets to prevent stains. The headliner and sunroof are in very nice shape also. The headliner is not torn or sagging! the sunroof is not showing any signs of rust or leaking and after the vehicle was washed and sprayed down I found no leaks into the vehicle.
The glorious engine is in very nice shape. I replaced the valve cover gaskets and had the vehicle inspected prior to purchase and while it was being serviced. The vehicle is not leaking any fluids and the engine is extremely clean inside. There was no sludge buildup and the vehicle received a tune up the month prior. The vehicle starts right up and the transmission was rebuilt at 130,000 miles. The cam shafts were serviced and are welded cams so you don't need to worry about them. The engine sounds great and is very responsive and powerful!
All around this vehicle is in remarkable shape for its age. Its a rare find to find this vehicle with such little issues. The vehicle is a solid 8.5 out of 10, and I invite anyone to come see the vehicle. You will not be disappointed with this vehicle. If you were looking for a good vehicle for transportation or if you always wanted one of these race sedans here's your chance to own a beautiful example. Feel free to come visit the car and ask questions. I also included a picture of the window sticker for the vehicle with the photos. The car is located in Holly Hill Florida right next to Daytona Beach. If you have any questions either call or texts will do, I prefer text messages if you need a quick repose due to my work schedule. (386) 843-2495
Thank you for the interest,

Mustang GT350 reveal coming Nov 17?
Mon, 03 Nov 2014Ford looks to have something really big planned for the 2014 Los Angeles Auto Show. The Blue Oval has released the first of five teaser videos on the brand's performance heritage, and aside from some great images of racers over the years, the video includes a series of teaser images, the last of which points to November 17, 2014.
That's the day before press days open in LA, and considering the propensity of global automakers to plan lavish debuts the night before a major international auto show, it's a virtual certainty that Ford will be showing off some sort of special vehicle.
That'd be news in and of itself, but based on the images shown in Ford's teaser video - which include an Alcantara steering wheel, a "Powered by Ford" valve cover, aluminum pedals, sticky tires, a big, round exhaust tip, a honeycomb grille and a serious set of wheels - it seems very likely that Ford will be showing something performance oriented.
Michigan museum offers Model T driving classes
Sun, 29 Dec 2013Halfway between Detroit and Chicago, there is a car museum that gives visitors a unique level of interaction with antique cars. The Gilmore Car Museum in Hickory Corners, MI has a driver's training class to teach people of any age to learn how to drive a Ford Model T.
From the crank starter to the column-mounted throttle control, this driving school teaches people all there is to know about driving and operating a Model T. Each class lasts about two and a half hours and is only open to 18 students. There are ten sessions planned for 2014 - twice a day on May 3, June 22, July 22, August 23 and September 14. The class costs $95 (or $85 for members), and it also includes a tour of the museum's automobile collection.
In addition to this driving school, the museum has plenty of exhibits on the property, and it's open all but three days per year (Easter, Christmas and New Year's Day) with free admission for school field trips and active military. Be sure to check out the Gilmore Car Museum's website or visit them on Facebook for more info.
Cosworth double-feature is XCar's a drool-worthy look back
Wed, Jun 11 2014While American fans of Ford performance cars in the '80s and early '90s were loving the 5.0 Mustang, Taurus SHO and, for those who wanted to be a little different, the Merkur XR4Ti, British fans of the Blue Oval were getting their own unique take on speed. The Sierra RS Cosworth (which was similar but not identical to the aforementioned Merkur) and later Escort RS Cosworth were the stuff of dreams with huge wings, hood vents and big power for their time and class. XCar Films aims to find out whether it is little more than nostalgia that makes these classics famous or it really is their legitimate performance. Thanks to its Formula One and racing success, Cosworth was already a well-established performance name in the UK by the time it began selling tuned engines to Ford for the Sierra and Escort. The Sierra RS Cosworth hit the scene in 1986 with a turbocharged, 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with 204 horsepower and rear-wheel drive. Its huge wing at the back signaled it immediately as something special, and it proved to be a performance powerhouse on and off the track. When it was retired, Ford replaced it with the Escort RS Cosworth that used an upgraded version of the same engine with 217 hp, all-wheel drive and an even bigger rear wing to net yet more racing victories. XCar really gets into the spirit of the time, opening the video with the lo-fi grain of '80s and '90s TV, but to find out whether the Cossies stand up to modern scrutiny, you have to watch the video below. Stay tuned until the end to enjoy them at their best with some vintage motorsports footage. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences.
