    how much money do you have in your fox RIGHT NOW?

    Paid $2500 for the car. It's sitting in my garage since the day I bought it. It's completely stock with 82k miles. I've been contemplating what route to take with it, full on track car, halfway aggressive track car, or just slightly modified street car. After reading this thread, I know for sure...

    Eggs in one basket

    It's good to hear so far that all of your' first hand experiences have been good, if not great! I currently own a completely stock 89 lx 5.0 hatchback 25th anniversary with 88k miles. I don't drive it much because I haven't had time to fix the blown head gaskets and oil pan gasket. When I do...

    Eggs in one basket

    I've been lurking, reading, searching, and evaluating the S197 mustang. I'm thinking of getting rid of two cars for one. A new mustang is a possible candidate. I'd like to get some feedback from all of you daily mustang drivers. 1. I'd like to know how the car is holding up to the daily...

    Welcome back to me,,,LOTS OF PICS

    I have a 89' LX 5.0 hatchback that is completely stock. I've only had it for a few months. It's sitting in my garage until I have the ganas/huevos to do something like what you've done in the engine bay. Maybe some day I'll get off my ass. To you Wade...:hail2:

    My Engine build thread

    I'm glad I got to see the firewall. I'd like to know what that drain is for on the firewall. I circled it in this pic. I'm wondering if that is where anti-freeze is draining from on my car. The anti-freeze is landing on the cats and causing clouds of vapor. I don't see the anti-freeze leaking...

    5 lug / suspension swap progress

    From my experience of installing various aftermarket suspensions on different car makes, the measurements will always be off at first. You need to drive the car for a few miles on freeway, street, and some turns. I would say about 50 miles total. Then go back and measure. Everything should be...

    5 lug / suspension swap progress

    I'm waiting for a $3200 check to show up in the next couple of weeks. I'm planning on Steeda stage 1 and 2 suspension kits, Ford Racing 5-lug conversion kit, and 10th anniversary Cobra 17x9 wheels with new tires. I'm smiling from ear to ear watching your car take on its tranformation. :nice:

    Official UFC 66 Thread

    Before watching Tito on Ultimate Fighter, I thought the same of Tito. I thought Tito was a punk and disrespectful. I didn't like how he disrespected Ken Shamrock. However, after seeing how he handled himself on Ultimate Fighter, I didn't think of him the same way. Either way, I can understand...

    installing a new oil pan

    For some reason I thought the K member was just a straight bar going across that had a few bolts to remove. I guess what you've said means the entire front end. YIKES! I better get familiar with my fox body. I need to get under it soon.

    Official UFC 66 Thread

    I was referring to the last fight they had. Do you think Lidell felt good about winning Tito the first time because he rubbed Tito's eye on accident? I know I wouldn't take that as a win. Either way, this second fight ended almost the same as the last. That is why I thought he got robbed again...

    Griffin won by TKO in the 2nd round. I almost thought Tito was robbed again but he admitted defeat.

    installing a new oil pan

    The local shop I called said the same thing. The only way they'll change my oil pan gasket is by removing the K-member. They're quote was 5-6hrs of labor at $100. Now I'm torn to pay the money since the motor has 81k miles on it. Thanks for this thread Mustanghunter50. I was wondering the...

    what seats are these??

    I was just doing some research on aftermarket seats. I was looking at replacing my stocks for that same type of seat. Corbeau makes a seat that looks a lot like that too. Check it out.... http://www.corbeau.com/prod_index/prod_index.shtml

    Introducing myself....

    For some reason I thought the Ford Racing charger was a Roush co-developed kit. Good to know the facts now. ;)

    Mustangs conflict with Mustangs

    I think what many of you fail to see is that the Shelby GT500 was developed to be a road racer. It wasn't built all around quarter miling it. If that was the case, they would've put some 4:10 gears in that diff. As most of you know, Carroll Shelby's fame is from his past road racing...
