1989 Ford Taurus SHO Description

Listing this on behalf of a friend; contact information will be provided upon request of serious inquiries only. Car is located in West Islip, NY.

This is an original owner and first year of production 1989 Ford Taurus SHO with only 48,300 miles on it. The car has not been a regular driver for close to ten years however it was regularly started up to about two years ago. It would be a great restoration project, or possibly a parts car if someone is interested in the major components such as the drivetrain.
Here's what we believe the car needs -- a new fuel pump, battery, tires and hood lifts. Coupled with a fresh paint job and some detailing TLC this car is just waiting for it's next life to begin. The SHO engine and transmission combination alone makes this a very desirable car, especially given it was the first year for the SHO model.

Full original specs are listed below. The car has a clean title and is being sold as-is with no warranty. Please contact me via e-mail with any questions; the owner's contact information will be provided according.
