Just figured I'd share my $1000 fox :headbang:

Found a motor for $250 and a transmission for $200. Edelbrock performer upper and lower intake, BBK 75MM TB, mass air tuned for 24# injectors, tfs stage 2 cam (not used) $250 for all that!

But anyhoo, here are the pics. Just some cell phone shots.

How do you find a collection of engine parts and a car for only 1450?? I like the car, I like the coupes and hatches better, but it pretty clean!!

I completely disagree with the notion fox drop tops are ugly!

Lots of shopping around. Stalking Craigslist for hours a day. And altogether about $2000 after buying some other lil things needed, like a new computer and random stuff like that.

I'm not a big fan of convertibles either but this one has grown on me. Been through a lot of hell with this car getting it put together and what not, and it being my first fox, I don't see it going anywhere anytime soon.

I do plan on building a notch back in the near future as soon as I get settled back down. I'd love to have a hatch back lx.

sounds like a nice pickup. I could totally rock a vert foxbody, but I think I would go with the lx or saleen ground effects.

Yea me neither. I've been keeping an eye out for some stock ones. Can't really afford a new set at the moment. These lights are so cheap and brittle.
