It looks nice. That body style SHO is the best looking IMO. Very nice.

LOL, tell me about it, I have 3.55 trac loc in it and you can not touch the gas.:nono:  You just have to just glide along, picking up speed gradually, both hands gripping the wheel...lol.:yuck: I'm gonna try something different, and drive the Cougars when it's nice out. Here's a pic of the SHO's engine compartment.:tg:

That's really clean. They must have taken good care of it. Looks like a good buy to me.

actually a buddy of mine just wrapped his around a telophone pole in the snow...although he has way less driving experience than you, it goes to show you what is possible.  (then again, what isn't possible?)
