Hey Guys! Remember me??...Because I am one of you...

context----http://imgur.com/gallery/zljHV 2nd context----http://imgur.com/a/bPi1d

Well I decided to do an update on my mustang and how shes looking now. I know a lot of people liked the previous posts because of a fondness of Mustangs and Cars in general. So here's to you car guys who knows what the journey is all about. Enjoy :)

I've been waiting...

I'm actually not surprised somebody called me out. I'm just surprised it ended up on the front page!! Was planing on making a post about it my self... but the other guy\gal beat me to it!

Here's some pics for the Fox Body Lovers!! (I read the Comments)

I read a lot of comments that showed favoritism towards Fox Body's so i'm gonna post some photos I've taken as I've worked on her :D

The engine bay looks a little more clean now. I've since got a one wire alternator, and new blue plug wires.

Tearin' her down.

Was in the process of changing out the heater core. I know some of you guys have done this before. Not an easy task but worth it in the end.

Here we almost got that dang heater core out

Dat Hurst Shifter Doe...

5 speed died on me...

This past Janurary my 5 speed died so a good friend of ours let me buy his 4 speed out of an 84' Mustang. The shifter kept sliding off the shaft so i put a simple shift knob on the shaft it self. Really short but it works. Below that boot you can see all the way to the ground.

Interior Work

Since I can't afford the major parts for my car thought I'd start working on the interior. This Picture was taken after I had cleaned up and painted the center console. Not bad. I'm fairly pleased with it.

If you saw a glimpse of the old hood, you knew it needed a paint job bad. This is the same hood...not bad for two redknecks and a couple cans of Engine paint.

Spring Cleaning

Update on the interior

Took this picture the other week. I've got plans for the seats don't worry. Might reupholster the original seats with the Mach 1 style from LMR.

And here I am!!

A few weeks ago I decided to take a picture of me and my second foxbody. If anybody wants to see my first one I'll be glad to make another post.

Cat Tax. Couldn't forget that haha.

Her name is Cali and she and I get along just fine...

I'll be honest too. I hated my first one until we practically rebuilt the whole car. I learned alot and just fell in love with them.

It is by far my least favorite Mustang as well. The 80s ruined many good cars.

I felt the same for a while, but then I saw a lot of people make them into frankenstangs to keep them around. It's amazing. gg, op.

(1/2) The 79-83 Mustangs were pretty bad, the 5.0 only made 140 horsepower. They started getting it right with the SVO though.

10 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

(2/2) The SVO only had a 2.3L inline 4 but it was the fastest Mustang available at the time (84-86).

What is a "fox body"? Is it an x-files reference? (Fox Mulder drove one of these mustangs in an early season)

11 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Fox bodies were RWD-only unibody chassis (frame+body in one). Ford used it for most models from 78-04. Mustang was only survivor from 94 on

Also, Fox Moulder's body was a nice one. Even 20 years later as the Hank Moody body
