I've been passively trying to sell my car for about a week now. I've gotten some interest in it. The reason I'm selling is because, although I love this car, I don't have the time or money to make a 2v as fast I want it to be.
I had a poll about what my next car should be. What I've decided on wasn't even an option in my poll.
One of my good buddies (19fobra95) just got a fox last night. Its a 90 gt. I got the fever now and I gotta have a fox.
The car is very nice. Its got a holley system x intake and an F-cam. I'm not sure on the heads but I'm sure he will get in here and tell you more about it.
His new car moves out pretty good.
The main reason I want one is the difference in weight between foxes and sn95's, and the fact that pushrod parts are so much cheaper than mod motor parts.
So thats it, the car is for sale or for trade for a fox in some local forums.

gauges make or break a car for you? You are aware that AutoMeter makes aftermarket instrument clusters, right?

I had a 88gt for 10 years before i decided to let her go. I love the look of the Fox and i loved the power ( DSS 306 with twisted wedge heads, track heat intake, N-41 Cam, and all fuel mods to go with it dynoed at 335). but the many rust issues, like wheels wells, and strut tower along with the 80's style interior i just couldn't stand it. i could see if you found a badd ass notch that is in mint condition it might be worth it but foxes have a lot of issues. Since owning my 97 i doubt i could ever go back to a fox. I love driving this car. it rides about the same, doesn't feel much heavier but what i like the most is the interior is so much better than the fox. so think hard about it and look over what ever fox you find with a fine tooth comb. good luck!
BTW here is my old gt

I dont think I could ever own a fox body unless it was a full race car,but even then eh to each his own. If I had to own one besides a drag car 4 eyed and t-tops ftw but oh well to each his own I guess. Good luck on the hunt, but gotta admit, its sad to see a 2v'er leave

i think if you sneeze on a Fox it'll rust LOL. I have had 4 in my life and each with their own problems. Glad its over and im in my 97 now. the closest i came to having my perfect fox was my 86 LX T-top Coupe project car. i had a complete 96 gt interior for it and a 300 horse 2.3T built and ready for it. I ended up selling the motor for a 4.6 swap and then sold the car LOL. too many projects!!
