    Well, like they always say, they're never done. Building another motor.

    Some of you may know my car. I finished it about 2.5 years ago. Its got a GT40 set up. Made 280/308 wheel and has gone a best of 12.83@107. I had alot of clutch/trans problems this year and only got 3 out of 20 clean runs. The car just does not want to go into second. So time for some upgrades...

    90k mile Fox as a Daily Driver?

    My current daily is a 176,000 mile mostly stock LX, never gives me any issues. Its got snow tires on it and its a tank in the snow. My previous daily was a 130,000 mile 5 speed LX and was solid as a rock. I also dailied my 89 GT that had 181,000 on it and beat the hell out of it through...

    New to the forum, bought a '93 Notch..

    Hey man, great foundation to start with!! You may want to not media blast that thing! I restore cars for a living and going to metal will really bring the cost of the paint job up! If its original paint you're better off leaving it and using the original paint as a "primer surfacer". There's...

    Few pics of the daily.

    The pricing on loaded CV LX Sports is actually about the same as a marauder. They are jus sinister lookin cars. Jus one more winter drivin an old fox daily and then I'll be driving a fast couch daily.

    ? 93 Notch, Calypso, Changing Original Color, Should I?

    Keep it calypso, I saw a Calypso hatch the other day with silver deep dish SCs and ultra clears and I nearly shat myself. It was unbelievably gorgeous.

    Its been my dream daily for a loooong time and everytime I see one I drool. Im just plain simple of dealing with a 20 year old car as a daily, and not having cupholders. lol

    Mopar just aint an option for me, they get about 12 mpg which is awful, I dont wanna get a car that gets worse than what I get in my LX. Plus they are a few thousand more than I wanna pay and I'm sure as hell not going to by some rattletrap Caprice. GM is a no no. I only keep a Chevy motor in my...

    I like the headlights, and they were a gift from my girlfriend. They are a whole lot better than the other 1 peices out there. Marauders sell around here for around 10 grand with 80-120k on em. I'm hoping to find one with less then 100k on it. This is the newest car I've ever owned so Im looking...

    I would LOVE to do a 5 lug with black 03 Cobras but my budget ain't allowing it. I got a really good deal on the steeda wing at the etown swap meet so I jumped on it.

    I don't think I've ever seen a Fox a door jamb this rotted out.

    Yea, I've really become fond of the color. I'm biased to a good ol shiny black hatch from that being my first stanger but I really like the strawberry. This car is like 4 different shades of it tho. Thats why I wanna paint it. I'm curious to see what I could get for this thing once shes all...

    Few pics of the daily.

    I traded my old black 91 LX for this 92 LX aod car. I got sick of drivin stick everyday so I got this thing straight up. It had some issues (heater core and as some know the horrid door jamb rust) but I'm slowly fixing all the stupid things and repainting the car to sell for a profit next summer...
