I think I'm going all the way to the dark side
After hemming and hawwing about what to get as a driver after I sell the wrx, and work on the camaro, I think I've decided.
....A fox body mustang. You may ask why. Well parts are available and cheap. They are rather reliable, and I know a lot of people that know a lot about them. Peppy enough to get out of their own way, and I think some of em are pretty attractive. Like this one Plus once I get the camaro together I can mess with the mustangs, because 2 v8's with turbos is cool.

Those were pretty much the last mustang that I liked unconditionally in terms of styling. They look a little dated now, but because the exterior design is so basic, clean examples wear their age well. The interior, probably not so much- mid-80s domestic interiors were pretty nasty. There’s such a strong aftermarket for those cars, though, that can be easily rectified. I think I like the hatch better than the coupe, but that may just be me.
I’d rock one as a daily driver in a New York minute. Gas probably gets a bit expensive, but I must admit that old 5.0 V8 thorugh a set of Flowmasters is a good sound. |

Does 'Fox body' refer to the 'notched back' Mustangs or am I missing something?

rao sold his formerly turbo '92 notchback a little while back. that car was incredible.
but explain again briefly why on earth you'd buy a fox mustang rather than work on the camaro? if you buy the stang, sell the camaro. it makes no sense to leave the camaro half (or less) finished. |

Gross. The Fox body is a frickin wet noodle. And for the same price as a Fox body(atleast around here), you can get a '95. Which has a slightly less gross interior and exterior.

Buddy of mine had one in high school, the LX. Bent the frame and broke two of his rims when he went sideways into a curb. That guy's lucky to be alive after some of the stupid **** he pulled. Anyway, outside of being a ****ty Ford color, it was a fun car.

4k on a turbo mustang...
yeah OK let me know how that works out! 4k or less on any fox chassis is going to be a beater, or at the least even if the body & interior are in good shape you're not going to get much of anything going on under the hood for that price. |

I can get a very stock fox body for that price. Considering I know the makers of 3 of the 5 mustang turbo kits very well I can get all that stuff for cheap when the time comes.

They don't make bad track cars, if you get them around the corners.

eff you.
being from Albuquerque I think might predispose me to mustangs...I was looking for a pic of the fox body that is in the new BFG ads, Dwayne 'big daddy' Gutridge (did low low 8's on drag radials) and I saw this page. http://www.musclemustangfastfords.co...ts/0310mm_wfc/ Not only was I there, but 2 of the guys on the side (Mike Keenan and John Urist) are both friends of mine, and I even saw Mike Keenan today. ...eventually I'll turbo it...and turbo mustangs are just effin cool. |
