Link in my sig if you wanna check out my build thread for the motorhome here. Its currently gutted, going through a full modernization.
 
Not only is the 1st GEN Taurus not on the road anymore, they comprised half the cars on the road. You watch any movie from the late 80's, early 90's and they are everywhere.

I was a Ford trans tech nearly the entire 90s. Those SHOs were cool. Have driven quite a few, but never had to work on one.

Now that same era regular Taurus/Sable/Continental... I made 10s of thousands of $$ off those AXODs and Es 😄 Could have one out of the car and on the bench apart in about an hour. Rebuilds paid 14-16 hours a piece. There were many quarters I was averaging one rebuild per day + other little jobs and flagging 20+ hours a day.
