Well, it's been about 7 or 8 years since I've been on this list.  I
started my experience with the SHO with a '94 MTX and moved on to a '96
SHO after the '94 was totaled in an accident with a tractor trailer.  If
there's any old-timers around here still, they might remember.  Anyways,
I moved on from the SHO world and bought a Lincoln LS after the '96 SHO
haed a cam failure.  I had a '90 SHO for a winter beater and now have a
'94 ATX  as my daily driver so I don't pile up miles on the LS...  So
I'm back where I started from.

Now, after that brief reintroduction...

I'm looking for information that I think was posted here a long time
ago.  Might have been on the V8SHO.com email list and will check there
when I rejoin them.  Anyways, in the Lincoln LS world, the discussion of
the Gen II LS has surfaced for the '07 model year.  It's based on a
Volvo platform, have AWD, look like the current Ford Fivehundred, and
the new powerplant will be a compact 4.4 liter, 311 horse power
transverse mounted Yamaha V8 currently in the Volvo XC90.  All stuff
I've heard in the SHO circles that was supposed to be the revival of the
SHO.  I rembmber seeing a large  artist's rendering of it as well...
looked like the Fifehundred and it was blue.  There were links to it on
someone's homepage.

If anyone remembers that old information, I'd greatly appreciate you
passing it on.
