Saw this on the notice board at work and thought one of you might be interested in the Wagon of Awesome. I blocked out the guys details as it doesn't seem fair to publish them on the internet without permission. P.M. if you want his phone # and I'll pass it on. Needless to say NMNA, no idea who the seller is.
HHmmm, pic isn't showing up that large. If you want I can e-mail it too people.
Hmm...a surprising amount of want...
Yes please. Where is it located?
I forgot they made those. I remember you could buy the vanilla model with a stick. Kinda cool actually.

SE Michigan, most likely.
That's flipping awesome. I still have fond memories of my 93 SHO. When it wasn't at the dealership, anyway.....
Yup, I work in Dearborn, so somewhere within in the metro Detroit area. I loved these cars back in the day and a wagon just adds 100% more awesome sauce

I'd ask you to ask them if they'd take a rallycross AW11 in trade, but if you don't know who they are, that might be a bit difficult.
Dayton, Ohio isn't too far from Detroit.

There you go, I know the guy actually. Good dude and a nice car. When you call, ask for Josh.
That is super cool and I am looking for a new DD but there is no way I could convince my wife that this is a good purchase.

If my '92 SHO had been a wagon, I'd probably still own it.
Sweet car. Awful wheels.

Last I knew he also has a set of Lincoln MKVIII mesh 16's for it with rs2's on them

If I had the money, I'd buy it, then swap my 3.2/5sp combo in.....and my 13" brakes, and superleggras, and evo recaros, and adapt my ground controls to work with the wagon rear suspension....
That backseat is crazy! I've never seen that before. I don't need this car, but I want it!
I asked Mrs. Deuce if I can buy it. I think it's one of those great weird American wagons that I kind of need.
Even though I think this would be a PERFECT addition to my stable of wagons, I have been denied. I need better places to hide cars.
My mom had an '89 SHO 5-speed when I was a kid and that thing definitely formed my car-loving foundation. She'd downshift to 2nd and floor it to make left-turn signals and chirp the tires with 1st-2nd shifts. And she wonders why I rev the E36 M3 out of my car and corner really fast.
I've always wanted a cheap 88-95 as a project/fun car but I don't have the space. That thing is full of awesome though. I definitely have a soft-spot for Taurus wagons, having grown up in the suburbs in the 90s.
Also:
"-Mid-90's Lincoln Continental front air suspension struts (plumbed to a schrader valve to adjust the air pressure as needed and doesn't leak)."
BRILLIANT! (not being sarcastic)
