Updated to remove sold items.
Hey, guys, I used to be active on here under the name "Tauruspimpin" and on TCCA as "Mr. Pants", many years ago. Times do change, and I no longer have the e-mail those accounts were registered with so I made a new one. If anyone remembers, I had the red third gen Taurus with the Vulcan engine that I swapped over to use an MTX IV out of first/second gen SHO. I used to autocross it and had a Wavetrac, Koni's, and all the good stuff that would fit a gen 3
.
Unfortunately, in January, I got into a wreck with the car. It was a pretty good hit on the front left corner, and even though I fixed everything cosmetically, I cannot get the front left alignment right; even moving the subframe and strut mount around, I always wind up with 3-4 degrees of negative camber. I am so attached to the car, since I've had it since I was seventeen, that I just do not have the heart to buy another Taurus and start over, so I am parting it out.
I have prices listed for some things below, but feel free to make an offer if you think I am asking too much; the worst I will say is "no". For anything not listed, just ask or make an offer. I am in Western North Carolina, so if you're between Charlotte in Knoxville, I'd be happy to meet up to get parts to you and reminisce. Otherwise, assume that buyer pays shipping. I have put a couple of pictures in here, but they are old, so if you interested in a body panel, let me know, and I will take some detailed pictures of its defects so you can decide.
For payment, I prefer cash where possible, but can do PayPal. I will send the PayPal address in a PM as needed.
Updated to reflect what has sold. All I have left is two MTX IV transaxles, sway bars, springs, and subframe bushings. More information is below. Everything else has either been sold or scrapped. Prices are reduced; someone make me an offer and get this stuff out of my garage!
Transmission - Tranmission is an MTX-IV from a 1990 Taurus SHO. Installed an Autotec Wavetrac torque biasing differential in 2009, about 50k miles ago and replaced all bearings and shims at that time. I also have a spare transmission from a 1995 Taurus SHO that is unmodified. The shifter/linkage is a rod style from a 1995 Taurus SHO has been modified to have a shorter throw and accept Mustang shift handles. The cable is custom made due to body differences between the older SHO's and '96+ Tauruses.
Transmission with Wavetrac - $750
Spare - $250
Suspension - Shocks are Koni Yellows from SHO Source. Springs are Eibach progressive rate. Sway bars are 24 mm front and 26 mm rear from a 1993 Taurus SHO.
Springs alone - $100
Sway bars - $100
Aluminum subframe bushings - $75
