    My 89 LX Build Thread!

    That's what I'm planning on doing. It's got a perfect body except for the rear bumper, full interior that's just not installed, good windows, and an 8.8. That's a pretty decent amount of money right there.

    Guess I forgot to post this pic of the Gt... The floor pan split and started to rust around the pinch weld. No doubt it could be fixed, but it would take a bunch of work. After the Lx is done and sold, I will be on the prowl for a running car to mess around with this winter. I don't really...

    Thanks everybody!!! The lift is a Benk-pak. Farmers SN95, that does look good! They just looked wierd on my coupe though. No new updates really. I pulled out the gas tank, but I haven't picked up my donor car yet.. I probably won't get it until this weekend. But once I do get it, I will go to...

    Thanks guys! I think the wheels look just right being stuck out there. He ran around on my prostars and 275 Nitto DRs with no problems. He just rolled his fenders with a baseball bat. I'll probably do the same thing, but I'll heat the paint first so it won't crack as bad. Heres some pics of how...

    I got the rest of the crappy suspenion out today. This was my first time pulling a rear end out. The biggest problem I ran into was getting the E-brake cables out. They were a pain. Other than that, it was pretty easy. I also pulled the other side of front stuff out. I...

    Fox respect... or the lack thereof

    I hope that once I roll up and show them what a real car sounds like, they will quit hating. And yes, none of them have any idea what they are talking about. They all think that no matter how much you do to a 5.0, it will still be slow. Little do they know that the 5.0 pretty much started the...

    Fox respect... or the lack thereof

    I hear this at least 5 times a day from kids at school. They think my car is the ugliest thing on the face of the earth. All they talk about is the POS 2010 camaro. They seem to think the camaros are a gift from god. Personally, I think a notch is TONS better looking that a damn 2010 camaro. I...

    Made a little bit of progress on the car... but not much. Got my 5 lug stuff. It consists of 95 spindles, 99-up PBR calipers, and a SN95 disk brake rear end. I cleaned up the rear end a little. I'm going to paint my calipers and stuff silver and black. The rear end cover will be...

    Pics of my 97 GT

    Thanks guys!! I love this car to death. You can't beat the gas mileage and the comfort features of these cars! It's definately a much more refined feel than my foxes.

    Your project cost?

    In the coupe, I'm sitting right at $7900 counting the car. I still have to do paint, but the motor, trans, suspension, and interior is all completed. In my hatch, I'm already sitting at $900 counting the car. The suspension stuff is bought, but I still have to do the motor/trans and some...

    Pics of my 97 GT

    Thanks guys. My dad has about 15 different Chevelles/old GM cars. So it's kind of wierd that I've got 4 Fords! The Kingswood wagon is an all original survivor. We just slapped a surf board on top and slapped a set of Street Lites on it. It has a little 400SBC and runs great! Every car in the...

    Thanks guys!! As for the battery cable... I sure wish I could take it off but my dad requires every car we have to have a battery cutoff on it. :notnice: But, its a safety measure so I guess it's ok.

    Hey guys. I don't spend much time over here in the 4.6l section, but I figured I would share my 97 anyway. I spend most of my time over in the 5.0 section. Anyways, I have had this car for a few months now. My dad had this car a few years ago, and then sold it to one of my buddies. My friend...

    Thanks! I love the 97 wheels too. They fit the lines of a hatch really well. They looked pretty awesome on your car too! I'm pretty sure that I bought my front and rear 5 lug stuff from a buddy today. It consists of 95 spindles, PBR 2001 calipers, and a 98 disk brake rear. So, the wheels should...

    Thanks everybody. I too like the 97 wheels. They just don't look right on coupes. I think they will fit this car pretty well though. I'm not sure if I want to go 5 speed or auto. I will probably go 5 speed just so it's a more desirable car for when I go to sell it. And, I think I will just do a...
