Does anyone know if there was any kind of project that they took a Taurus (2nd generation) and transformed it to look like a SHO? (i know they look kind of the same but i am curious on what one might have to do.)
Thanks.

The closest thing I did was to replace overheated engines twice, they are very cheap if you find the shop I used.
For less than $500, I got a new car each time. Not bad, indeed.
Yes they look so close, that they were/are one of the best sleepers out there. Most drivers don't know what happened to them when a four door Ford dusts their two door high performance GM product off. In Lincoln Nebraska even the Vetts left me alone (once they had been had).
You need side skirts, a new front valance and a different rear bumper cover. Dual pipes and that is about it.
But why not add the engine, transmission and ECM. Up grade the shocks (different shock mounts too) and have almost the real thing?
The seats need to be up-graded if you want the right look on the inside.
It is a shame Ford stopped making it. There have been a lot of reasons given, but I think it was because this ride was one of the prefered cars for drug runners. About three of them were wrecked on the interstate in the midwest that I know of during a high speed pursuit. All three had drugs on board.
I did not like to drive a profiled car, so I traded mine off. I don't run or use drugs, but a policeman pulling you over doesn't know if you do or don't. So why invite the hassel for something you are not into?
My guess is the SHO has more power, and better suspension, dual exhaust, disc brakes, you know Performance upgrades, bigger rims, but stock look overall.
SHO is a bad *** sleeper.. if you are going to make it look like one PLEASE put the powerplant behind it!
no clue
