so i bought a car.....

[trashman01]

my new toy.




familiar sight wit mustangs(we were rollin it down hill and the brakes havent been bled yet)


its got a cobra rear bumped and LX tail lights(look better imo)


once i empty the inside ill get photos of that, but it cost me 1900$ and the kid i bought it from dumped about 7 or 8 grand into the car, lost his job and needed some cash so the mustang went. i also go a load of spare parts

Clean ride. What mods did the guy do to the car?

I always liked fox bodies but if your gonna be a Benedict Arnold you might as well do it up right and get a notch

if it was Matt's car it wouldve had a centri-blower on it though.


thats a pretty nice looking fox though, i prefer the mid 80s with the ttops though but still not bad.

yeah same i'm pissed mines not t-tops I just have a sunroof i loved my dads 83 gt with t-tops

[trashman01]

ill pass on the four eye foxbodies, ttops woulda been sweet but everyone wants huge amounts for them up here(87-88?) or they are the 4 eyes adn i dont like that front end at all

[NastyEllEssWon]

yeah but if i was ever to buy a foxbod it would be one of those cause its easier to change a front end than cut in some ttops. but i digress....any plans for this fox body?

[sweetbmxrider]

definitely a steal for the price, enjoy

get it running with its current set-up and then improve, i would love to put a/c and heat back in but that can wait cuz i gotta get wipers in first and get the motor running

That drives me nuts when guys pull the a/c (worse yet the heat) to save the few pounds and gain a .001.

I could see if you were building a F430 or something because parts are so damn expensive but to dump 8 grand on building a mustang and the thing not running I would want to sell it also!
