Hey every one. I'm just tuning in to apologize for the lack of progress, but I promise I'm getting back on it. I got a little side tracked on my summer car (the cabrio) and what started out as a simple lowing and wheels turned into a full glass out color change and re-spray.
As for the Taurus... My main power line to the rear is run the interior is pretty much gutted. I need to finish up the wiring and then it will be pretty much drivable. I've contacted road wire and katskinz and I think I have a line on a red leather interior for it, and I'm looking into something pretty neat (in my opinion) in a 20 inch wheel.
Thanks for your continued support.

Learned to drive on a pinkish purple 1996 Taurus.
So all I gotta say is I'm madly in love with this wagon.
If you ever decide to part ways with it, I'll toss it in heated storage next to my MK2 Golf
Amazing work so far!! Carry on!

Originally posted by exexpat View PostMax, we really need to have a weekend where you drive up and we put on a few sets of wheels. I have a feeling if you ran my winter wheels and took a couple of good pics, the h8ters on this thread would go nuts, then we could remove them again for the superior Cygnus wheels and it will be your and my secret.

I just wanted to say that I'm also a lurker for this site that finally felt the need to register after seeing your work to this long roof taurus.
great stuff, and definitely an inspiration. I've owned a few Taurus SHOs (all pre-96 body style) and I'm looking at a 99 wagon for family/daily driver status now and want to lower it.
are you planning on doing anything to stiffen the chassis at all? if so I have demensions for weld in style sub-frame connectors that definitely stiffen the chassis up quite a bit.
something like this:

Thanks for the comments folks. I haven't gotten a whole lot accomplished in the last month or so I was out of town, and I've been working a few of my other projects. I am however getting back on the wagon so to speak. My list of need to do's is getting shorter and I hope to pretty much eradicate whats left of said list with in the next month or so, barring any major complications. I will try to post up a good up date in the next few days, to keep those of you who are interested satiated. In the mean time Thank you all again for the kind words they really help motivate to focus on one project. We all know how tough it is to focus with a dozen or so projects staring you on the face.

I haven't checked up on this thread since page one, but what I said then still holds. You're doing a great job. The suspension parts you made look professional and all the body work you're doing is exactly the right thing to make this car look better.
The threads with quality fabrication are the ones that really stand out and draw people in, and this is one of them. Keep it up.
And roll those fenders already lol
