Up for sale is this 96 Ford Taurus SHO. This was
the first year for a V-8 engine. It's a 3.4L V-8
built by Yamaha of Japan. The majority of the
engine components were built here in the Windsor
Foundry, then shipped to Yamaha for the small
parts and final assembly. The completed engine
assemblies were then shipped back here to
Atlanta to the Hapeville Assembly Plant and
installed into teh production cars. this engine
made 235hp @ 5200rpm.
The history on this particular car is, back
in 2005, I bought this car from the original
owner in Texas.
It had a
cam fail and the engine was damaged. We fixed
the engine and did all the maintenance that was
needed. We then sold it to it's current
owner who has owned it ever since. It has never
been up north or exposed to salt or snow. The
under side is just a sclean as the top side. We
recently repaired the front end and steering
system and replaced the swaybar end links, inner
tie rod ends and ball joints. We also put on new
brakes, front and rear. The car has been
properly aligned and has a brand new set of Toyo
Proxis 4 tires (less than 2000 miles). The air
is nice and cold and everything works. The
leather is clean and free of tears or damage.
The outside bolster of the drivers' seat shows a
slight amount of wear, but nothing out of the
ordinary. Everything else works like a charm; CD
player, moon roof, lights, radio (Mach Audio),
it all works well. The interior is very clean
and is great condition. The dash over the
instrument cluster has pulled up, but they all
did that. Again, nothing out of the ordinary.
If you'd like more pictures of the car or
would like to talk to us about it, please call

Our shop is located in Atlanta. We've been
specializing in Fords and Ford vehicles for 11
years. We are one of 5 SHO specialists in the
country. We actually invented the welding
process to fix these cars before the cams
failed. Too bad this one popped before we were
able to fix it. At any rate, it's fixed now and
works like a champ. Here's your chance to get a
really good, really dependable vehicle that's
fast and smooth. This is not your average Used
Car. This is a car that's been very well
maintained and won't need any maintenance. We've
already fixed the things that ordinarily go
wrong with these cars. This is a very nice
example of a well maintained, dependable
vehicle.
If you have any Ford vehicle and need quality
service or parts, please give us a call. From
oil changes to superchargers, on your Escort to
