RWD '94 Taurus SHO

Don't know if anyone has ever seen this but i found this wack job on youtube.

YouTube - Ford Taurus SHO converted to rear wheel drive

He has a couple other vids on it too but they're not of the best quality.

Except for the clutch, exhaust, and the biffle sticker, not a bad idea. Also looks like it could use some CC plates.

That's pretty cool except for the crappy music. The only other RWD SHO application I saw was on a sand rail. I think he used a trans out of a Windstar.

I had a 95 SHO and I loved that thing. I wish I never would have gotten rid of it. I had wayyy over 200K on it and it still drove like a champ. Those engine are bomb proof.

After having owned a 95 SHO for over 10 years, to see that engine positioned under the hood that way really freaks me out ! To be honest I was hoping there would be a 5.0 under the hood with RWD, but very clever arrangement anyway. Having done the 100K service on ours (water pump replacement, crank sensor, cam seals, timing belt, valve shim check, etc.) I can vouch for how hard (and expensive) they are to work on. And good luck getting parts. But still one of the best cars I ever owned. The red paint and slicer wheels looked great. And talk about gobling up some interstate ! Sweet !
