EBay Cam Failure #686

New 5/7/06


A friend of mine just bought a cam failure. It will be on Ebay soon.

Vitals ( which are scary )

56k miles. NO Joke. That sucks.

Eric. We are in Cincinnati. He is Steve Peele ( Owns Cincinnati SHO. ) He bought it right... Someone opened up the motor and left it open for a couple of years. Left the plugs out and everything. I think this one is over. I could not turn the motor over with a 3 foot breaker bar. I filled the cylinders with some transmission oil. Hoping to break the the rust loose inside.

Just sad to see a fairly nice 96, with only 55k miles bite it. If someone is interested in it. I would contact him through www.cincysho.com ...

Vehicle Description

This is a 1996 Ford Taurus SHO which experienced a cam failure and was left open from that repair. The valve covers and plugs were removed and over time the engine has been subject to rust and moisture. As a result the engine has seized and rust is now in the top end of the engine as well as in the cylinders.

The body and the interior of the car are in very good condition and all the switches and features worked before the engine failed. The car came with the chrome wheels, and many features which were removed after 1996.

There are salvageable engine parts, but the car has been sitting outside for over a year, and the parts will not include the internal portions of the engine, since it can not be rotated. This is a great car for parts, as fixing it would also entail some brake replacements and checking of the lubricated systems on the car. The electrical seems to be intact and the body panels are all good with the exception of the driver-side rear door. You can see the body issues in the pictures provided.

The car is mobile so it can be towed. Buyer is responsible to arrange and pay for any towing charges. No warranty is included in this deal. The car is sold "as-is" and "where-is" but is a great deal for anyone who is trying to rebuild a Gen 3 SHO.

If you have any questions, please email us. We will not accept bids from people with zero or negative feebdack and we will not sell this car to overseas parties. We abide by the rules of eBay strictly and so we will also not entertain side deals or contact outside the eBay system.
