Is an 83/84 non-GT. GT would have openings for driving lights.

The largest annual gathering of foureyed Mustangs and Capris in the world went down this past Saturday, right here in the Great Northwest. Check it out: 2009 Event Report pg1 If you've got one of these cars, you were either there or wanted to be - it's that good :nice:

Hey John - oh SHIrT, another Fox, eh? Too bad about the hood, that's a real PITA (read: expensive) to fix. About the front bumper: "no flex agent" is code for "poor prep". Ask the guys at Autopaint downtown, they're the ones who told me. I added nothing extra when I painted the...

Take a look at what this guy has to say: Toma's 460 Big Block 'Stang

K-member should be the same, but why take chances? The diff in your car is a 7.5, while the donor's is an 8.8 - considerably stronger. So get that, too. Front brakes are bigger, too, I believe, and a direct swap. Why not take everything (including the gas tank, fuel lines, computer, etc.)...

This sounds fun. Might make a good road trip for me and a couple other guys I know. Let us know when the website's up, Brandon...

Perfect - you can convoy with the guys who are driving up from SoCal :nice:

If you've got a foureyed Mustang, contact Neil or myself for an invite. Last year we had thirty-seven cars on hand, and it's been growing at the rate of about ten cars per year. Click on the link for info on this year's event and lots of pics of previous years: NW Foureye BBQ website...

A little more juice and you'd have stayed up front. The way you kept re-passing in the twisties made most of the others look like a bunch of drag racers that got lost on the way to the strip. You are gonna kick ass with a new motor.

Naw, it was Ashley's car. :p Can't believe you let an early V8 notch slip away from you... Where were you when we had the last NW Foureye BBQ? Neil told me you were planning to come. We had 37 cars! Guess we'll see you next August, eh? Lee

Back in the day I had a new '88, and my wife would drive it. That was hot. But it's gotta be a stick, or it's just another secretary car.

Nice. That track looks a little scary... lots of big, solid things to whack into if you go just a bit off course (trees, embankments, jersey barriers, etc.).

Yaay, Neil! Way to represent the foureye crowd!

Is the SCCA not calling this "Solo I" any more? Wish I were going - it's gonna be a total blast.

Pretty much because SVOs are of the same vintage as the foureyed cars. Some see these early Foxes as being a bit overlooked/underappreciated, and the SVO is one of them. Also, they threatened to beat us up if we didn't let them... :D

{sigh} Neil, it was a Butterfinger. You ate it just a few hours ago, for crying out loud.

You really should. Here's last year's event: http://vb.foureyedpride.com/showthread.php?t=49399 [edit: not sure why linkee no work, but if you copy and paste, it will]

Funny this should come up. I just rode (ZX6R) this stretch yesterday on the spur of the moment, had never heard of it before (being from way south in Olympia). A very scenic piece of road, with some nice twists; I'd highly recommend it. Was undoubtedly even better before people starting...

Meh... I wouldn't get too happy about high 20's in a four-banger. Driven carefully, a GT of similar (87-93) vintage can knock down 27+ MPG on the freeway. For that matter, my '01 Crown Vic can manage 25+. All turbocharged? Hardly. Statistically speaking, very few of them were. 87+, none...

For the record, I'd like to point out that there aren't any soldiers in the Marine Corps... just Marines. Soldiers are, of course, in the Army. Best of luck filling the positions.
