no looks like it is just equipped with the Ford Off Road Appearance Stance they like to give cars.

Looks pretty clean. Any rust issues? What are the plans/Dreams (dreams are always more exciting to read!) for the car?

Mine had that package until about a month ago.

Hopefully, i want to keep it as original as possible but you know that doesnt always work out. i do have a craving to add a few things, such as a rear spoiler, hood scoop...but away with dreaming cuz i gotta fix under the hood first. Like i always say, dreams never die...just the dreamer :rollin: lol

I bought mine March 31, 2003. It doesn't look much like that pic anymore. It now looks like a lowered Turbo Coupe. I've got to get some pics up on here of how it looks now...

So this is why the car looks so much higher in the front?  It's just I've never heard of such a thing.

I can understand why Chooglin asked that question, it always looked high to me.  So, you guys are saying that this was intentionally done by Ford as some kind of 'package'?
