    Foxtoberfest 2022

    I'm (somewhat) local so I go every year. Few years ago I brought a truck load of parts, and sold out. Last year I had to leave early because of work. This year I hope to hang more with everybody I know, meet new folks, and listen to the trivia answers with some interest. ;)

    79 Hi beam shuts down one headlight

    Turbo would be on the passenger side of the engine, below the air intake duct. It is not uncommon for the original turbo to be missing from the early (1979-82) cars.

    How many white exterior with sand beige interior made?

    Can i order a new owners manual book and the vin stickers?

    Helminc.com was the original publisher for Ford shop manuals, owner guides, etc. They may have reproductions of the documentation you're looking for. EDIT: I just checked their site and all they have for 1989 is the EVTM (electrical and vacuum troubleshooting manual)

    Engine Will it fit/work

    It was H.O. The 85 H.O. CFI engine had a roller block but still used the flat tappet cam/lifter from 82-84. It also had the exhaust system from model year 84, until mid Nov 84 when it got the 85 4V exhaust. The exhaust switch got a 15 HP bump. See the chart above.

    I think my Fox might be a 1 of 1 car...

    Most of those production numbers are not verified. Many of the ones that are verified are wrong. The 1987 1K GT convertible number of 206 is verified to be correct. There are quite a few names that are wrong too, from the original source. Even some codes are wrong. Then they just get...

    There was never a "Smoke" exterior or interior color on a Fox Mustang. 1K exterior paint color = Light Grey G interior trim color = Medium Grey If you want a lower number than 1 of 206 you'll need a 'personalized statistics report' from Marti Auto Works
