YES! Another FR500 man! Nice choice and your car looks AWESOME! Great job :hail2:
 
I installed used LX tails i got for 65 bones and changed my coolant and oil :). Week before that my wife got me some early Fathers day gifts, steeda chrome a/c knobs,aluminum door bezels and replacement weatherstripping for pass door :) she helped install it all too!!!
 
I drove mine... :nice: But the backstory is that its been sitting in storage basically for the past 5 years while I was flirting with the 2000 GT that I aquired. Since selling that car late last year, I have been anxious to get a couple updates done on my '93 and get it back on the road.

Now with a taurus fan swap and a BBK Catted H done, I've cleaned it up licensed it and have it back on the road. Honestly I have missed it, the 2000 GT just was not the business IMO and I am happy to be back in the FOX. Ironically I almost sold the '93 when I purchased the '00, but I opted to stash it instead and I am glad I did.

I put my Victor Jr. and Pro Systems carb on today and finally got the turd started up again after a year and a half of sitting. After priming the fuel bowls, it fired up first try and idled like a champ...it felt soooo good to sit in it and feel that cam shake the crap out of me. Then i drove it some, and man it's been a long time so of course it feels fast, but i can't wait to get it back on the dyno and see what the difference is because the top end is ridiculous now. It's like an on/off switch from quick to HOLY HELL lol.
 
Replaced my 6 year old Sam's Club battery (came with the car) and the positive battery cable. After having to jump start the SSP 2 days in a row (was on a battery tender charger that read fully charged). Found that the bolt in the positive battery wire was cracked and was not making good contact. The battery would only charge to about 5 volts. I think the 103 heat we had last Tuesday finished it off.
 
I put a new driver's drip rail moulding on one. Then washed another one and drove it to get a new set of plugs for the other.

This afternoon The Wife and I sat in front of the TV and prepared ballots and car numbers for the NW Fox Reunion Picnic I'm putting on next Saturday.
