jj_john_johnny ◊ 2008-05-21 10:00	Yup, it was a color option on all Taurus' but I've only ever seen one black non-SHO in person. But here are a couple pics of Black Gen1 Taurus' to prove they existed. A black 1986 on the cover of a Ford brochure: And a perfect condition black '86 that was for sale last year: -- Last edit: 2008-05-21 10:01:55
