    Hmmm... I got some on my phone. Basically, the hood and the fenders are back on it, and the body guy is doing his thing (as you can see). Still waiting on the trunk weld... but that should happen soon. The body guy just called me the other day and said it is going to take a little extra...

    I guess because he thinks times are tough he can jack the price way up to make up for all of the work he isn't getting? Which is just plain messed up. Yeah... times are tough for everyone... they are tough for me too! I don't mind paying for something to be done... but I do mind paying almost...

    Well, I will be doing back flips when it comes back from having the body work done. WHICH WILL BE VERY SOON!! I still haven't gotten the trunk pan welded back in it BUT, my body guy knows someone who can do it (as well as weld the sub-frame connectors in). So, he is going to pick it up...

    FINALLY! I got the trunk pan last weekend! YAY! Now I just have to get it welded back into the car. That should happen in the next week or so. THEN it's off to paint... after that it should go pretty quickly... well at least I hope.

    Nothing has been happening. STILL waiting on the trunk pan! It's driving me CRAZY! I should have one in the next week though. The folks that are parting this other Fox out are almost done with what they have to do.

    Thanks! Oh man... those are all such great choices!! I have a friend that has a 93 coupe painted sonic blue... it's FABULOUS! I am totally lovin' that color! AND you don't see it very often on a Fox! Which is AWESOME in my book! I mean... if you think about it, how many black Mustangs are...

    That is super nice of you! I got some good news a couple of days ago... someone locally has a Fox parts car and I will be able to buy the pan from them. I will hopefully have it in the next couple of weeks. The next weekend after I get it, it'll be welded in for sure! After that, it's all...

    Oh man... with that question all that comes to mind is a quote from Army of Darkness "all of Jack and **bleep**... and jack left town". **sigh** The waiting game is driving me crazy for sure. The trunk pan is really holding me up. Someone was supposed to hook it up but has been too busy...

    It seems I will lose a LOT of trunk space as the spare tire will take up all that I have in there. I don't want that. The car is not gonna be any faster... it's gonna be a girlie streetcar. I don't need to be doing wheel stands on the street ya know? The engine is already built and it is...

    Yeah... I was thinking more along the lines of elbow grease anyway. Yeah. I know but, the car is going to be pretty much stock. I don't really want to put bigger tires on it so it would be a waste and I would have less trunk space. The trunks are small enough as it is... I can only imagine...

    Thanks!! Got a bit to go but took a BIG first step! Well, I was really happy with it stock... since I had that lifter making noise before it was stolen I KNEW the day was looming where I would have to rebuild. I decided at that time, I would put aluminum heads, maybe some tricked out rocker...
