You can see the Eibachs got rid of a good ammount of the fender gap. Some 17" rims would fix the rest (and allow even bigger brakes).

All the SHO options including sunroof, JBL Premium Stereo with powered sub, full leather, with the exception of the car phone. 1st owner was a lil old lady that drove it 3k miles in the first 3 years. 2nd was the wife of a Ford Master Mechanic who was very picky and had MANY parts replaced (including the black window moldings at a price of over $600). She loved it so much that she acually cried when they sold it to me. All reciepts from day 1 including the build sheet and the info brochure. All recalls done. Still has the original floor mats (came with summer and winter mats along with summer and winter tires). Oil changed @ or before 3k miles every time. It's been babied.


Here's what happened to the stator shaft on the old tranny....

Thanks. Sad to think of how little I'll get for a trade in on it. :(

looks clean, I really like cars that someone kept that nice. good job.:thup:

[BenBrausen]

No rips or tears in the leather, no stains on the carpet. Backseat looks like it was never used (and I sure don't use it much).

[SSHFTY1]

yikes, if you know what i mean..:scram:

[BenBrausen]

Heh.... No that was always in her vehicle. Explorer has much more room. :grin:

[SSHFTY1]

gotcha.:thup:

[BenBrausen]

Best part is takin' hwy offramps at 45-55mph and throwin' friends that aren't buckled in in the back for a ride. The leather conditioner makes it even more slick.
