    Who has agreed value or collector insurance on a Fox body?

    No, you can just insure your car through them and keep the other car with whoever you currently use. It was kind of already answered, but when I switched the 90 to American they told me that with Agreed value, if another party is at fault the other insurance company will pay what they are...

    Boyd Coddington Dead at 63

    I got to meet Boyd once when I was shooting some stuff at SEMA. He seemed like a great guy in that short time, and who couldn't love some of his creations, especially from the early years. May he R.I.P:(

    Looking for a fox after 3 stangless years

    If you are willing to drive to get one, go south. I saw 3 in the paper yesterday for around 2 to 4k here in Arkansas. One was a white one and I have met the guy. Just a nice simple low mile vert, although I think it is an auto, but it is white, and barely touched. Plus you have little worry...

    Someone makes a dog thread, and we have to put ours down?

    :( Sorry Brian, losing a pet you had for a long time is hard. We had to put down our cat over the winter.

    Cost of Timing Chain Cover ???

    I am looking for a decent price on a timing chain cover for the 90 rebuild. After looking many places they all seem to be from $120 to $150, is this the normal rate. Seems high for a piece of aluminum, or I am looking in the wrong places. I can find several places that have the carbed and...

    my first color change.

    I use photoshop every day so it is not a big deal to me at least, just do it like 25th stated, and the zoom tool is you friend. Although sometimes I like to try different things on my own or get ideas from other pros. Here is a great site to get those tips. Look through them I know there are...

    Yeah, another person with High ports! Are they the older style or newer? How well does that cam work with them, my guess is good for that combo. What size rockers are you using? Welcome :nice:

    Will Fox Bodies go up in value?

    Good discussion guys! It looks like most of us have the same opinion on the matter. I have been trying to find a thread from awhile back about fox production #s and 60s production #s and have yet to locate it. Basically the jist is that there were more 60s mustangs made than Fox body styles. I...

    Will Fox Bodies go up in value?

    I get your point too! In fact the first large some of money I made was when I was 16 and finished restoring a 69 Nova 396. My Uncle who restored cars for a living helped me and I ended up make a good bit of money in the end. Would I call it an investment, maybe, but not a good investment...

    Arkansas Thread

    :eek: :jaw: :shock: I had no idea. But hopefully he will let you get it back when the time is right. What shape are the brakes in. I might be interested in the calipers and such.

    Will Fox Bodies go up in value?

    I will have to bring up a point about investing. Yes if you make a profit on something you purchased for one amount then sold it for a larger amount, even though not much more, I guess you could call it an investment, but your using that term VERY loosely. Cars are actually a poor investment...

    Check out my new aero package! *pics*

    Hey adidas, Just saw that you are from Liberty. Lucky on the snow, I grew up in Cabool, so not far from you. I miss the snow, since moving to Little Rock I have seen one snow over 2 inches in 6 years. People freak out here too even though it is just 4 hours south. The city has only 5 plow...

    Lets talk ACs...

    So you are or are not doing the work yourself? What have you done to it that you know there is know that it is empty? Did you use gauges or just push on the valve? Will the compressor come on if 12v is applied to the compressor connector? Has it been converted to 134a? How do the hoses look...

    Lets talk ACs...

    What is wrong with your AC now? Has it been to a shop or did you diagnose the problem? Fill us in with more of the problem and maybe we can help at the least save you time and money in the long run. Honestly, I would stay away from a used compressor, they end up being more problems than it is...

    rebuild or new engine?

    If you are worried about not having a car and are not sure about tools and the how to, but still want to do it yourself I would say new or used block. Get a new or used block and rebuild it yourself at you own pace and know how. This way you could still drive you current car and build your...

    Who has got an intake ready to install...

    After looking at the numbers I am questioning it myself, as I have seen that article before too. Althought we are also just talking about the lower as that article refers to the horse power and torque numbers which include top and bottom. Which to me even though they look alike, I have a hard...

    Who has got an intake ready to install...

    No it probably won't be running by spring. My hope is by fall, I would like to take it up to Springfield in September for the Street Machine Nationals. My wife tends to get me side tracked on home improvement projects and I haven't had much time to work on the car. Engine Bay is in the...
