Found this while looking around jaylenosgarage.com . Does anyone have any other pics or info on this car? It has all steel body work. It's pretty impressive for a fox built nearly 30 years ago.

*waits for Frankenstang to see this*

Looks almost like the exact same front-end we just pulled off last weekend for her car.

I kind of dig the front spoiler. It reminds me of the 69-73 front spoilers.

You know how fast that front splitter would sell if it was offered today?

I like the fact that it says, all the body mods were fabricated in STEEL....not cheapo fiberglass
