This is a pretty clean 1998 Ford Tarus SHO with a rare V8 Engine Option. I own a 30+ year established auto repair garage. This vehicle came into the shop with a broken overhead camshaft. The customer initially approved the repair and in the end didn't follow through. The head is still off the car. It has new valves and a new camshaft. The only thing necessary is reassembly. The interior is pretty clean with leather seating. It was owned by an elderly couple that ended up purchasing a new car. The body has a few chips and a ding or two but not bad at all. We did a lien on this vehicle and are trying to recover our costs. The reserve is very low. I feel it would be a good chance for somebody to obtain a classic rare vehicle. I kind of think this car could be worth some bucks down the road to the right collector. This is a project car and no guarantee is implied or expressed. We will cooperate with shippers to get it where you want it. Feel free to ask any questions. Thanks for looking.
