99K miles.... Hatch, automatic... needs front bumper cover and right front quarter panel from a light bump with a parking lot pole. Stock engine, trans and exhaust, interior is 7 of 10... Air doesn't work of course. Paint is about 7 of 10 also, no rust that I can see in body or pans. It does run and drive.... Thanks!

Today any Fox under 5g's is a score. Just check it out really well for rust and frame damage,if you can get it on a lift.

Yea I won’t be able to put it on a lift... floor jack and a good flashlight maybe.... I can get it for 3k or a little less I’m sure... wasn’t sure what the market for a fox is now....

Search for the Rust..... (Structure Wise, NOT Pretty Wise)

  1. Shock / Strut Towers
  2. Underside by gas tank
  3. Pinch rails
  4. Floor Pans
  5. Behind the front wheels where the K-Member mounts
  6. In the Trunk, usually at the sides. Look down where the braces for the rear bumper will mount, that is where you will have the most trouble and holes.

From a Sales perspective. A customer that will touch a problematic area on a vehicle and point out the repair need will de-value the car and give more room to negotiate because that repair will be needed to restore it to a better condition. I use this tactic on EVERYTHING.

That cars an easy 5k in the north east if there is no rust problems.

Driver side rear seat bolts tend to crack the floor pan. Look how straight front rad support and inner fenders in front of shock towers is.





My before and after some rear pan rust issues and repairs. Seam sealer along edges of my patches and after some rocker guard sprayed to seal over repairs.

Picture 2, the white colored product is seam sealer (the tube ran out and I used some black seam sealer is other areas). Picture 3 is a rocker guard, almost an undercoat product that when dry is paintable. Rocker guard can also be asphalt based and remains sticky. This is not sticky.
