New here of course. Bought my 93 lx 2.3l vert Oct of 2023. In the process of doing a full blown restoration and 5.0 swap. Looking to get 350 to 375 tq at the rear and push around 375hp.

Currently at a standstill till my house sells and have it trailered to my new home. But here she is as of now and my vision for after.

You sir.......have some work in front of you! Patience and perseverance and you can accomplish anything! I just replaced the entire rotted floor assembly in my '54 Ford project so, it can be done.
And, it looks like you have the same Calypso green color as my former '93 vert! The wife and I loved taking that car for country road cruises with the top down!

I want to say that the 94-98 cars have the same subframes but someone else with more knowledge that me can confirm that.

What an undertaking. You need to just start a progress thread over in the Fox forums. Why? Because we absolutely love a good progress thread.

I have one started already. I've never done bodywork/paint but dove in a month after buying it to start stripping and ripping everything out. So far so good. Will be fun welding in new floor pans and trunk pan.


I think I've made decent progress in 2yrs while working 3rd shift.
