              1997 Ford Taurus  V-8 SHO 169,513 miles 
                
                This car was bought used, I am the 2nd owner I 
                believe.  I have personally put over 97,000 miles, mostly all 
                highway.
                The car was used as a daily driver from Indiana 
                to Illinois.
                The drivers seat is worn, see the pictures.
                The rear door has a tear in the door leather.
                Windows are tinted dark.
                Remote door entry with two remotes.
                Two coded keys.
                Keyless door entry (code).
                (6) disk CD changer in the trunk / cassette in 
                the dash.
                Power drivers seat with lumbar.
                New "blue" headlights less then 1,000 miles ago.
                A/C is VERY COLD!
                Tires have 75% tread.
                Chrome rims.
                Rear spoiler.
                Average 20-24 mpg.
                Moon roof (vent or open all the way).
                Rear hitch for towing.  I only pulled a small 
                cargo trailer about 2-3 times a year for my job.
                Newer battery (1 year old).
                Very clean carpets, I always used rubber winter 
                mats during poor weather.
                Clear Indiana title in hand!
                Power windows (they all work well).
                Power locks (no problems).     About 3 weeks ago I experienced the car kept 
              dying on me, then it would not start.  I had it towed to a 
              mechanic and I was informed it would be about $1,000.00 to 
              $1,500.00 to fix it.  I decided it was time to buy a new car for a 
              daily driver, so that's the deal.  I know 
              it needs a new timing chain and some other minor repair to the 
              motor.  My loss is your gain.  This car I know has a 
              lot more life in it.  The motor is in the car and can be 
              repaired!  There is some rock chips in the paint and the drivers 
              door has a dent in it down by the bottom (see picture).  Please 
              bid accordingly, it does not run and will need to be towed or put 
              on a trailer, I can assist with getting it on the trailer.  It is 
              located in zip code 46996 (Indiana).  I have a clear Indiana title 
              in hand.  You are buying the car as is.  Please call if you have 
              any other questions.  Thanks, Ryan 574-870-0338  I can also assist 
              if you need it hauled to your door I have a car hauler, I will 
              charge extra per mile for this.  My reserve is $500.00, I know I 
              can part it out or take it to the junk yard and get at least that 
              on it.  Thank you.
