Up for sale we have a 1993 Ford Taurus SHO with a 5-speed manual transmission. This is the third SHO I have owned, and the best one. The car goes like a scalded cat -- runs great, stops with authority, handles crisply, just plain does everything well. It also has four nearly brand new Continental Extreme Contact DWS tires on it. The car has been lovingly maintained throughout its entire life; I am the second owner. The original owner garaged the car and sold it to me in August of 2009 because she had two other vehicles and wanted it to go to a good home. I have always taken good car of the car -- it has never been beat on, always adult driven, and maintenance has been kept up on. I use only Motorcraft oil and filters, specifically synthetic blend 5W-30 oil and FL-400S filters, changed about every 3,000 miles. When parts have been replaced, I've also used Ford and Motorcraft wherever possible, and I always use super unleaded gasoline. The vehicle almost never sits in traffic -- the vast majority of the mileage I've covered has been out on the highway, where it gets fantastic fuel economy.

Here's a comprehensive list of what I've done to the car since I've owned it:

$70 for headlights (plus shipping)
$46 for detail supplies and fog light bulbs
$30 for rear sway bar links
$6 for Motorcraft oil cap
$185.94 for registration and title

$223 for rear brake line and sway bar link install
$389 for brake lines from master to right front caliper
$117 to drill and tap drain plug in tranny case, fill trans

$104.60 for inner and outer tie rod ends (both left and right sides)

$243.72 for cooling fan assembly, installation, installation of power antenna, and LOF.
$450 to replace power steering pump and power steering belt tensioner pulley
$483.82 for four Continental ExtremeContact DWS 225 55-16 tires installed at about 218,400 miles.
$60 to mount and balance Contis.
$120 to replace driver's rear Monroe Sensatrac rear strut, Mevotech strut mount, and sway bar end link.

While there is rust on the passenger's quarter panel, a spot on the trunk, and a spot on the driver's quarter panel, the car is very clean overall. It is sound underneath, the paint shines brightly, and the interior is beautiful. There is very little wear on the driver's seat, and essential no wear on the others. They have truly held up wonderfully. This is a fantastic car that runs beautifully -- it performs like a car with 80K miles. Of course, as with most used cars, the car is not perfect. The A/C does not work, for example (all other climate control functions are fine). But it is far nicer and runs far better than most I've come across of this vintage.

Parting with my beloved SHO is not easy. I have two other vehicles, and am trying to trim the fleet -- that is the only reason I'm selling. Otherwise I would keep the car and enjoy her for many more years and many more miles. There are no lights on the dash, no squeaks, rattles, or noises. The Carfax is clean, the title clear. By the way, the exhaust is awesome. It consists of a high flow Y-pipe from Magnaflow, and custom work from there back (a small section of the original exhaust was saved where it splits to go to the tailpipes), including two Dynomax three chambered mufflers with double walled Magnaflow tips. This system does not drone. It is quiet at idle and out on the highway, but has a mellifluous growl and smooth tone when you accelerate.

This is a solid, reliable SHO. She's ready to go -- all she needs now is a good home.

As you'd expect, the car is sold as is, with no warranty expressed or implied. I have title in hand for easy transfer to the new owner.

I have a Motorcraft A/C compressor, new in the box, as well as a Denso receiver / dryer assembly with piping that I will include if the Buy it Now is used.

This unique '64 Mustang was Edsel Ford II's first car

Thu, 02 Jan 2014

You probably had the same dream when you were a teenager. Your sixteenth birthday is coming up, or Christmas, or maybe both, and all you want is a muscle car to call your own. That dream has come true for some, and one of them was none other than Edsel Ford II.
Henry Ford's great grandson turned 16 on December 27, 1964 - two days after Christmas and eight months after the original Mustang went on sale. And that's just what was waiting for him in the driveway, courtesy of his father (and reigning chief executive) Henry Ford II.
The specially-prepared pony car had a pearlescent cream paintjob with narrow blue racing stripes, functional hood scoop, chrome trim, Euro-spec fender-mounted mirrors, a blue leather and aluminum interior, a monogrammed fuel cap... and a 289-cubic-inch V8 under the hood.

Mixed sales results, but automaker stocks rise on need for cars in Houston

Fri, Sep 1 2017

DETROIT — The Big Three Detroit automakers on Friday reported better-than-expected August sales and issued optimistic outlooks for demand as residents of the Houston area replace flood-damaged cars and trucks after Hurricane Harvey, sending their stocks higher. General Motors, Ford and Fiat Chrysler posted mixed August U.S. sales, with GM up 7.5 percent and Ford and Fiat Chrysler down. Japanese automaker Toyota improved sales by nearly 7 percent, while Honda fell 2.4 percent. Still, analysts focused on the potential for Detroit automakers to cut inventories and stabilize used vehicle prices as residents of Houston, the fourth largest city in the United States, are forced to replace tens of thousands, perhaps hundreds of thousands, of vehicles after the devastation from Hurricane Harvey. Mark LaNeve, Ford's U.S. sales chief, told analysts on Friday that following Hurricane Katrina in 2005 "we saw a very dramatic snapback" in demand. That said, Ford sales fell 2.1 percent in August. It sold 209,897 vehicles in the United States, compared with 214,482 a year earlier. Sales were down 1.9 percent in the Ford division and off 5.8 percent at Lincoln. Demand was down for cars, crossovers and SUVs. It was not clear how many vehicles in the Houston area will be scrapped, LaNeve said, saying he had seen estimates ranging from 200,000 to 400,000 to 1 million. Ford's Houston dealers may have lost fewer than 5,000 vehicles in inventory, he said. Ford is the No. 1 automaker in the Houston market, with 18 percent share, according to IHS Markit. The company plans to ship used vehicles to Houston dealers and has "every indication we would have to add some production" of new vehicles to meet demand, LaNeve said. Investor concerns about inventories of unsold vehicles and falling used car prices have weighed on Detroit automakers' shares most of this year. Now, automakers can anticipate a jolt of demand from a big market that is a stronghold for Detroit brand trucks and SUVs. "It's got to be a positive for the industry," LaNeve said. Investors appeared to agree. GM shares rose as much as 3.3 percent to their highest since early March. Ford increased 2.8 percent at $11.34, and Fiat Chrysler's U.S.-traded shares were up 5.2 percent $15.91, hitting their highest in more than five years. GM reported a 7.5 percent increase in U.S. auto sales in August, helped by robust sales of crossovers across its four brands.

Ford To Unveil Solar Hybrid Concept Car At CES

Thu, Jan 2 2014

Ford plans to unveil at this month's International CES gadget show a solar-powered concept car that offers the same performance as a plug-in hybrid but without the need for a plug. The C-Max Solar Energi Concept car uses a gasoline engine combined with a gizmo that acts like a magnifying glass to concentrate the sun's rays on the vehicle's roof-mounted solar panels. The automaker says the vehicle's estimated combined city-highway mileage is 100 miles (160 kilometers) per gallon. The U.S. auto maker says that by using solar power instead of an electric plug, a typical owner will reduce their annual greenhouse gas emissions by four metric tons. The company says it sold about 85,000 hybrid or electric vehicles in 2013, including 6,300 units of its C-Max Energi plug-in hybrid. The sun-ray concentrator was developed by researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology and uses what is known as a Fresnel lens, which concentrates light but can be made thinner than a conventional lens. A full day of sunshine is equivalent to a four-hour battery charge, or 8 kilowatts, Ford says. On a full charge, it should have a range of 620 miles (997 kilometers), the same as the C-Max Energi. The concept car also comes with a plug-in port for standard electric charging. Ford says that 75 percent of all trips made by an average driver could be powered by the sun. After showing off the concept car at the convention in Las Vegas Jan. 7-10, Ford Motor Co. says that it will test the vehicle with institute researchers to determine if it's feasible for mass production.
