starting all over with a new fox

95tbirdv8 · May 27th, 2011, 01:07 PM

found a fox yesterday on craigslist, and my impulses and car addiction kicked in. its a 92 gt convertible. stock motor. i think 101K miles. it needs a lot of little stuff here and there, but it will keep me busy. i must say, this car is super slow. i thought my black fox was slow, but it feels like a viper compared to this one. now i need a car lot that holds 6 cars, lol.

Dap1991 · May 27th, 2011, 01:27 PM

any long term goals? looks nice

phares_b · May 27th, 2011, 01:31 PM

Interesting. Has the87-89 turbines.

95tbirdv8 · May 27th, 2011, 01:40 PM

no goals yet. im just fixing the broken stuff first, especially the headlights. im not forgetting about my other fox, thats my real love, lol. now when i order stuff i have to get one thing for each car, i treat them like kids.

the guy i bought it from has a hatchback roller also, so i got stuck with his old stuff. he took the ponies off of this one.

My heart aches whenever I see a stock 5.0 engine

I wish I could make mine do 500+hp looking like that, stock air box n all. Shame that's not possible unless i blow it or have it so enlarged it sticks out the hood

Not bad! She might not be the fastest but does she run smooth? looks good though!

95tbirdv8 · May 27th, 2011, 03:44 PM

runs good, but needs an alignment. the previous owner changed all the bushings and balljoints in the front, but im pretty sure he didnt get it aligned. and for some reason the overdrive doesnt want to kick in like it should. im going to change all the fluids, and see how it runs, if not im getting a torque convertor and a transmission rebuild.

lol gotta love them impulse buys ://

gotn20 · May 27th, 2011, 06:22 PM

Noice man. I just bought a 2002 grand am for 1800 bucks. Polished it, Buffed the head lights and did a wheel bearing and I think It's gonna sell today for 3500

FastStang91Lx · May 27th, 2011, 09:41 PM

Bought this last year for the wife for 1800. Wife's car/progress pics She won't let me flip it though, she likes it too much. Could make good money on this one.

flattusmaximus78 · May 28th, 2011, 02:28 PM

^^^ nice work, would be a sick daily.

FastStang91Lx · May 28th, 2011, 06:45 PM

She goes back and forth between her Monte Carlo and her Stang. She can't put the top down with our son in the back til he gets older, so I get to drive it to work about half the time. Since it's a stick, the Monte is easier for her, so she usually only drives it on super nice days, especially if it's my 2 days a week to pick him up from daycare.

Nopalero · May 28th, 2011, 09:31 PM

Hey That red pony Is bad a$$, it Just need some love and care... i also bought a pony in Craigslist ...... 90 white 5.0........ they took the fuel injection and threw a carb.....it needed a lot of little things , its looks like i just need to do the rear main and the rest of the seals,its a leaker....

95tbirdv8 · May 28th, 2011, 09:56 PM

i havent found a leak yet, but i will soon, lol.

95tbirdv8 · June 6th, 2011, 04:21 PM

well the molestation has began. got some cobras (yes i want to be like everyone else). these are actually made my ford and are 4 lug. also picked up a 70mm tb, but im waiting to get a intake to put that on. changed the oil and radiator fluid (there was mud looking stuff in the radiator).now i need opinions, should i get new clear headlights, or get the smoked ones like the ones i have on my black one?

Dap1991 · June 6th, 2011, 05:04 PM
