Buying cars in my neck of the woods? That was not a snowstorm in Michigan I only used 1200 pounds of salt and lost one plow marker. Snowstorms I usually lose both markers and bend the plow. Come back and visit during our next season Road Construction. Driving is just as slow just warmer.

I just completed a 5-day road trip, 2400 mile round trip to pick up two Gen2
Taurus wagons.

The 94 dark-green wagon is going to be the basis for my SHO wagon. For
pictures, refer to eBay:

This one was in Brooklyn, NYC.

We also picked up a 93 teal-green "SHO wagon," pictures at:

This one was in Shepherd, MI, smack dab in the center of lower MI and a
snowstorm. : )

The Cincy SHO hood from the 93 wagon will get painted silver and go on
Abigail, my 92 SHO prima donna. (The cowl is cool.) The SHO front clip and
slicers from the 93 wagon will transfer to the 94 wagon. The 94
dark-green/mocha wagon will become my SHO wagon. It has EATC, leather,
keyless, and moonroof. I am going to build the SHOwagon that Ford should
have built. Watch for more messages about this project.

The 93 wagon will get a SLO hood and front clip (and a lot of maintenance)
and be given to a sister and brother-in-law who are good people but
penniless. The 93 wagon has needs. The 3.8L runs rough (bucking and
jerking on the highway home), broken RR door handle, etc. We'll get it
right and the family receiving it will be delighted.
