I have a 1999 SHO that I no longer want. It's black with gray interior with 118,000 miles on it. It runs great but it has low oil pressure (13psi), when hot, at idle. I removed the oil pan hoping to find something obviously wrong and found a few bits of metal which I can't identify, and nothing else. This car was my daily for many years and I took very good care of it, but the time has come to let it go, as I have a hot rod project and no longer have the time nor interest in trying to repair it. I spent a deal of money replacing a lot of things just before the oil pressure issue popped up and as such this would be a great car just to salvage those parts off of it. It has a Certified Transmissions Road Ripper tranny with only 15,000 miles on it. A great transmission with solid shifts from improved parts and such. I had in the last 10,000 miles or so replaced ALL of the suspension, struts, lower front arms, all four rear lower arms, bushings, links, ball joints, engine cradle mounts etc. I just replaced the steering rack, power steering pump and lines, and it has drilled and slotted rotors front and back with Hawk HP pads. It has a set of Pirelli tires with many miles left on them, though they are starting to get a little old. The body itself is a Colorado car, hence no rust at all but it does have a number of nicks, scratches and small dents. I really don't want to end up driving this to the junkyard, so I thought I'd try to give it away first to someone "in the family" on this site, in the hopes that it will find a new life or serve a useful purpose keeping another V8 SHO alive.

If this is still available, I'm very interested. I have family in Highlands Ranch they may be able to get it out of you hair soon if it's still around.

Thanks

Hi, I'm sorry I didn't back to you sooner. I have several people who have expressed interest in the car but nothing is final yet. I've been asking what their plans are for it, so I'll ask you the same. Any ideas on what you're planning to do? Thanks, Mike

The car is still available, and several people have expressed interest. I've been asking what they'd likely do to the car. Any ideas?

I'm interested as I have a 1999 also that needs a clock spring. Parts from both to make a good car again.
