A fox vert is very different than an SN vert when it comes to chasis as a fox was never designed as a vert. They simply took coupes and hacked the roofs off of them, making them about as stiff as a wet noodle. Still nothing that cant be rectified.

Still to this day one of the badest verts ever




another nasty vert from back in the day



This will be my next vert

i sometimes forget that mustangs are held to a drag racing standard and that a vert would cause issues for when you "have" to 1/4 mile it lol.


i would do allot of terrible things to get a hold of a fox saleen vert.

I belong to quite a few local Mustang forums and haven't seen the hate for em. One done properly looks tits IMO. Build a Saleen clone Tony! Verts can be had for pretty cheap.

the only thing I never liked on foxes though was the interior. From the seats with the fox-lean to how everything else inside of them rattles like hell. The don't look bad they just didn't last worth a crap.

Verts of any kind, to me, pretty much spell out chick car. I don't give a damn if it's a 700 horse termi or a stanced beemer M3, there's just something so uncool about it to me.

Fox verts are cool in their own right. Hell, a freind of mine had one that ran low 8's high 7's. I have never had a problem with them. I even owned one, a 93 in electric red.

Here is a little video of the 7 sec run that my buddy did in his vert [video=youtube;sH1UlJ9xOF8]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sH1UlJ9xOF8[/video]

Unfortunatly, the car is now dead, having hit the wall at 180mph+ Gotta love a 25.5 Cage!

Jason Betwarda, one of the early turbo 5.0 pioneers.. Thanks 95opal, glad to see people still giving Racin' Jason props!! :notworthy:

i personally think a Jalapeño red, 4-eye GT 'vert with black Saleen mesh wheels and a light bar is :fap2:
