Nice vert!

I went with these and I love them. No drone, great sound and quiet cruising. Don't get me wrong, you still know it's V8; they are quiet enough when you need them to be, but will still get plenty loud under WOT. Borrowed from Jeg's site...

Lucky!

I've been watching the Fox market like a hawk for the last five years. It wasn't until about two years ago this sudden spark arose where the truly clean ones started to shine. This certainly doesn't mean that there aren't needles-in-the-hay-stack to be found, as some have reported on here...

Nice score Grover!

Fox cars, currently speaking, aren't a big deal rolling across a BJ auction block. People are there to buy serious collectables, not Fox Mustangs which are still all over CL's in various shapes. However, what people fail to realize is, for a Fox, BB value is absolute garbage---as in it means...

That horrible vibration was your clue to have something checked out, especially now that you've replaced your trans, you said she's smooth sailing. I know when I had just chipped a few third gear teeth, the trans sounded like rocks in a rock tumbler.

You found clean, low-milage Foxes for 3-3500? Where are you at, in the middle of Kansas or Idaho? There's only one Fox you'd touch for that price in Chicago; a junk Fox. 165K on a Fox is nothing btw. I have two friends that had well over 300,000 on theirs, well one is at the 380,000 mark...

^^^THIS! I've got over ten years into building mine and around that invested. IF you want cheap, it's a ticking time bomb. If you want it to last ten years, drive like a stock car and still run low 11's or greater on the street, you'll be spending some serious coin. Anyone who tells...

Mach swap that biotch and throw an IRS in the rear and big brakes all around. Make it the ultimate Fox-Rod. OF course this would bring respect amongst the older crowd. It certainly would not run 9's, but would be one pleasantly rewarding street car and would look mean as heck lowered. Keep...

I'm affraid that I'm going to have to see pics of this alleged Notch before I give my statement.

Get a motorcycle.

Too bad you're a million miles away. I actually had a guy from AZ with a nice Bronco that was all set up to trade me, and then he got cold feet with about two weeks left. We were going to meet up in Oklahoma.

I laughed out loud when I saw this. I've had mine for ten years now. Last year, she brought in a lot of compliments, probably more in one year than I've received in the previous nine. My mistake was I found a new hobby: motorcycling. I put 5100 miles on the bike last year and maybe 800...

Run a short belt to bypass your smog and power steering pump...good for a tenth. You need a set of heads bad. If you had heads with good lower and upper control arms, you'd have it in the bag. Even if you just had good upper and lowers, if you could dead hook at a 4G launch and...

^^^This! Go buy a Focus or something to beat around in as gas approaches 4 dollars a gallon again, use it as your parts hauler and cheap reliable transportation. Create a project list of everything you want to do to your Fox. Phase it out.

This is where I am at in the process. I just started on my T-body and EGR. I also got one of the original valve covers about 70% finished; polishing is just plain time consuming.

What Mad Mike posted is good shadetree stuff that works. Nothing beats a cylinder leakdown test for checking the sealing capabilities of an engine. My first GT was at 20-22 percent on all cylinders, so she pulled a steady vacuum and power balance test, but the cyl leak down exposed why...

Reef Fox with a 363 and a hair dryer...too cool! I see you also have the factory waxy undercoating on the floor pans.

In order for Ford to keep the Pony car alive, it had to step up on the interior department along with fit/finish and NVH. Rags were grilling the 'Stang alive for Walmart like interior and an over all ride quality that took you back to 1979. With the vast improvements, many have embraced the...
