Did the color matched grill break or not come with the car when you bought it?

I've got it, just liked a splash of chrome on the front!

When you say "documented, used, '05 ST motor" does that mean it's not the original engine? If so, why was it changed?

Driving back home from Boston late one night, the car suddenly started running very rough, slowed from 75 mph to no more than 45 mph, and the check engine light began flashing. The shop to which the car was towed, a Ford dealer, and the shop which ultimately replaced the motor, both indicated that the crankshaft pulley, which is not keyed to the crankshaft, slipped on the shaft. That caused the valves and the pistons to get too close together. Rather than replace or rebuild the old damaged head, it was much more cost effective to replace the entire motor, especially since it had 100K miles. I found an '05 ST motor with 70K miles close (relatively) by, drove down, picked it up, and had it installed. I have both the bill of sale for the motor, and a copy of their salvage title, from the salvage yard.

Very interested. If I can sell my truck before you sell it I'd love to see it. I'm not far from you.
