Car description |
|---|
The good: Complete, straight (NEVER wrecked or painted), rust free, running, drivable 1st GEN SHO. Needs some work but can be driven anywhere. The clutch (stock replacement with about 70,00 miles) and transmission are excellent as are the steering and brakes. The original tattered cloth/leather power seats have been swapped out for GEN 2 cloth manual seats that match the original interior quite well. The 16" white factory slicer wheel were added and the 15" basket weaves were pitched. The timing belt is brand new. The power locks, windows, mirrors and things all work fine.No sunroof (more headroom). No ABS or air bags - simpler times. Full Ford factory SHO shop manuals and original window sticker included.
The "not so good": To be a smog legal daily driver this SHO will need to have stock camshafts installed. I modified them for better fuel economy and the cold start performance suffers. Also, one of the two catalytic converters is shot. As such the car will NOT likely pass a CA smog test. If you aren't willing to deal with this issue this is not the car for you.The A/C has a new clutch but needs to be re-charged. The headliner has been ruined around the edges by the sun. There are probably other little things that 29 year old Fords suffer from that I'm not remembering.
Backstory: I'm the second, mature, owner since 1997. I bought this car at about 56,000 miles. It was our primary car for several years until we wanted something larger and more comfortable and it became our second car. A few years ago it became my "hobby" car and I'm no longer interested (and "left" it for a 2005 XJ8L...). It is not currently registered. I'm out of storage space and this SHO needs to go!
I can deliver up to 300 miles - fee will depend on the location and timing. I travel to Socal, Sacramento, and Las Vegas often. I can coordinate with your transport company, at your cost, if you'd like.
If you've read this far and still have questions please feel free to message me. Please don't waste our time with scams and don't bid if you're still figuring things out. Thanks and Happy Bidding!!!
