, for 2000 can't lose. A little cleaning helps a lot! I have a 1991 SHO.

Nice job on the cleanup. Looks 1000x better.

What are your plans for it? You still have the Contour right?

I love to see the turn around on cars like that! I worked as a car detailer as a second job when I got out of the Army, and I did a lot of auction cars that looked like that. But one thing I learned about cars that have been neglected on the interior and exterior like that is they have usually had little to no regular maintenece done on them either.

Give it a good tune up and keep an eye on the oil and fluid levels to make sure it's not leaking/burning for the first bit, and you should be fine.

I still have the Contour, but I'm sad to say I am selling it. I am trying to keep it in my family; my brother-in-law wants to buy it (we will see). As far as what I have planed for the SHO. It will be performance and SQ. I will be taking the Pioneer DVD player and monitors out of the Contour and put them in the SHO. I am going to take the passenger side airbag and put a monitor under the door, and one monitor on the overhead consol. I will be putting a single 10" subwoofer in it and two sets of component speakers. As far as performance I will take that step by step. I know it hasn't been will maintained so it needs some work, but at least I know it hasn't been rodded.
