PG. 1)                                                   EricShoHo's 1992 Ford Taurus SHO                             UPDATE NOTES on PG.8

   Let me introduce you to the car that I call the deuce.I call it deuce,because this car is the second deep jewel green /mocha SHO that I own,and it could also be because she is a '92,...the first SHO that own,I call the O.G.

Well the engine went in the O.G.,and a rebuild is in progress,but I still need a set of wheels to get around in,so It made perfect sense for me to buy another SHO,but I wanted a 5 speed this time,so a little looking on cl...800.00,and a trip from Philly PA. to Quakertown PA.(hour and a half drive)and  I drive home my second SHO...        SHO stands for Super High Output...the motor is made by Yamaha...it is a 3.0L dual overhead cam,24 valve,solid lifter,secondary throttle plates having,high reving wounder(8,000 rpm redline)...it produces 215 HP,and 200 lbft. of TQ from the factory!

                                       EricShoHo's 1992 Ford Taurus SHO

she isn't a beauty queen by any stretch of the imagination,but she is a driver,she is inspected,and that is good enough for me for now anyway.After the O.G. is back on the road,the deuce will go under the knife as well to make her beautiful!

                                       EricShoHo's 1992 Ford Taurus SHO

she needs some front end work,exhaust,and a good general freshining...I only have had her for about 3 weeks now,and can only work on her on the weekends(as of 03/26/09),so...

                                       EricShoHo's 1992 Ford Taurus SHO

Im trying to make her look good as quick as I can...so dont hate her because she is ugly...she will look good soon,I promise...the following pics are of the car the day after I brought her home...

coming from a Probe background, always admired the SHO and dreamed of the SHO swap to the Probers.. but as you saw I moved on to bigger and better. Keep up the SHO!
