2005 I sold my old SHO taurus to pick up the cobalt....
Some of you might have seen the videos http://1997gtp.net/sho/
it had 91k miles on it and was in pristine condition. I got the itch back to buy another one.
droptSHO posted on here the craigslist ad for, what seemed to be, my old SHO.
I contacted the owner.. he said that he wanted like 3500 for it. I really wanted it back, but not for more than i paid for it (3000 back in 2005)
He contacts me a few months later saying the clutch is bad and so the bumper.. He will take $800.
Needless to say, i went over there cash in hand and picked it back up.
The previous owner put on a "better" remote start... didnt hook up the manual transmission part of it... so he bumped a few cars. (bent the frame a little :wtc
Took it home.. took the whole front end apart. Kyles uncle owns a body shop, so i will be bringing it there for the face lift
The car is still flawless on the interior and all the mods are still on it from before.
We have traced it down to being JUST the throw-out bearing. But bigger and better plans await.
