After drive train was removed, the complete underside of car was stripped for the beginning of restoration process.
It has had the front floor pans replaced and FULL factory replacement rear quarters. (Both quarters had rust in
the lower rear). The rear end was rebuilt and basically everything else under the car is new.(gas tank, all gas
and brake lines, brake hardware and pads, emergency brake system). The front end was replaced, if anything was
reused, it was stripped and powder coated. All underside metal repairs were completed and then it was
painted/lightly undercoated. It also has new shocks, wheels and tires!
The interior is all new (seat covers, door panels, carpet, window/door handles and dash pad). The top was
professionally installed 1 month ago (all new weather-stripping). It is a Robbins Stayfast Cloth top and it looks
amazing!!! Power top works great!! It has a Mustang Brand Radio with new speaker, which has the classic look but
also has USB capabilities. The heater box was completely rebuilt with new coil, seals, cables and hoses. It still
has the original front seat belts.
The exterior was professionally painted in basecoat/clearcoat system in Raven Black. The doors, deck lid, hood and
front fenders are all original metal, they were stripped down to metal at the beginning. It has all new
weather-stripping and window felt. All side glass is original and the front windshield and seal is new. As you
can see in photos, it has new door latches, inside and outside handles and new door hinges. It has new emblems,
bumpers, taillights, front park lights, front and rear valences, back-up lights and a magnaflow dual exhaust. It
also has new front and rear wiring harnesses.
The car starts right up and drives great, you can drive it with 2 fingers. Engine runs smooth and it shifts
through all gears perfectly. In addition to factory equipment, I installed a set of gauges under the dash for oil
pressure, temperature and charging. I also installed a Be Cool pusher fan on the new radiator to ensure the engine
stays cool.
When I purchased car the underdash air unit was gone, but it still had all of the other hardware. I kept
everything in case someone wants to put it back original. The 3 groove lower pully is installed on engine.
Inspections are welcome, just give me a email!

Car Stories: Owning the SHO station wagon that could've been
Fri, Oct 30 2015A little over a year ago, I bought what could be the most interesting car I will ever own. It was a 1987 Mercury Sable LS station wagon. Don't worry there's much more to this story. I've always had a soft spot for wagons, and I still remember just how revolutionary the Ford Taurus and Mercury Sable were back in the mid-1980s. As a teenager, I fell especially hard for the 220-horsepower 1989 Ford Taurus SHO Β so much so that I'd go on to own a dozen over the next 20 years. And like many other quirky enthusiasts, I always wondered what a SHO station wagon would be like. That changed last year when I bought the aforementioned Sable LS wagon, festooned with the high-revving DOHC 3.0-liter V6 engine and five-speed manual transmission from a 1989 Taurus SHO. In addition, the wagon had SHO front seats, a SHO center console, and the 140-mph instrument cluster with mileage that matched the engine. When I bought it, that number was just under 60,000 Β barely broken in for the overachieving Yamaha-sourced mill. The engine and transmission weren't the only upgrades. It wore dual-piston PBR brakes with the choice Eibach/Tokico suspension combo in front. The rear featured SHO disc brakes with MOOG cargo coils and Tokico shocks, resulting in a wagon that handled ridiculously well while still retaining a decent level of comfort and five-door functionality. I could attack the local switchbacks while rowing gears to a 7,000-rpm soundtrack just as easily as loading up on lumber at the hardware store. Over time I added a front tower brace to stiffen things a bit as well as a bigger, 73-mm mass airflow sensor for better breathing, and I sourced some inexpensive 2004 Taurus 16-inch five-spoke wheels, refinished in gunmetal to match the two-tone white/gunmetal finish on the car. That, along with some minor paint and body work, had me winning trophies at every car show in town. And yet, what I loved most about the car wasn't its looks or performance, but rather its history. And here's where things also get a little philosophical, because I absolutely, positively love old used cars. Don't get me wrong Β new cars are great. Designers can sculpt a timeless automotive shape, and engineers can construct systems and subsystems to create an exquisite chassis with superb handling and plenty of horsepower. But it's the age and mileage that turn machines into something more than the sum of their parts.
United States drivers buying fewer Mexican-made cars
Tue, May 10 2016Crossovers and pickup trucks are not only growing in market share, they're also more profitable than cars. A crossover on the same platform as a sedan retails for thousands more, despite similar components. It's one of the reasons we've seen automakers rapidly shifting production of their sedans and hatchbacks to Mexico, where cheap labor preserves the thin profit margins on these inexpensive vehicles. But as the market continues to shift in the United States, Mexico is getting burned by its lack of product diversity. The country's auto exports, which are heavy on cars, suffered a 16-percent drop last month, Automotive News reports. In total, year-over-year exports fell from 233,515 to 197,020 last month, while year-to-date exports are down by 7.4 percent, from 922,029 to 854,118. The number one culprit? America which usually accounts for 75 percent of Mexico's exports Β and its appetite for crossovers and pickup trucks bolstered by cheap gas prices. While Mexico does build some light truck models Β AN specifically calls out the Ram 2500, Honda HR-V, GMC Sierra, and Toyota Tacoma as export leaders Β the vast majority of vehicles rolling out of its factories are sedans and hatchbacks. In fact, the three biggest drops in Mexican exports came from companies whose south of the border factories only build cars Β Ford (Fusion/Lincoln MKZ and Fiesta), Mazda (Mazda3), and Volkswagen (Golf and Jetta). Mexican Automotive Industry Association President Eduardo Solis told AN the export shortfall will likely be sorted out sooner rather than later, thanks to a pair of new factories Β a Kia car factory and an Audi SUV plant Β that are coming online by year's end. The two facilities will add around 100,000 vehicles to the country's export totals, which Solis said should leave the industry on the verge of breaking another export record in 2016. But how sustainable will these record-breaking years be? Slapping an "Hecho en Mexico" sticker on a new German SUV won't be enough to change the fact that Mexico's product mix is tilted too heavily towards body styles that are not growing in volume. Mexico's record-breaking export years probably aren't at an end, but we'd argue they're certainly under threat.
