After many years of Pacecarhunting, I bought this car last week.
Its a all original Car, C4, 302cid, sunroof, no rust and only 51k miles.
My GT runs fine, but a quiet weekend cruiser was on my wish list..
This car was sold as new car in Switserland. Three owner since new.
Drove It 572 miles thru Germany back home. Runs fine, and 90-100miles at
the autobahn was no broblem : )

Thanks

Thanks Guys
Planning just a few upgrades, and keep all the old parts.
Maybee dual exhaust, four barrel carb and intake. El. cooling fan.
Fox cars are not so popular here overseas, so It could be possible to
find a nice one..

Very Nice! Those Recaro's look great too. I hope that it is easier to find tires for the TRX rims there than here in the states. Congratulations on your find.

Thanks. It actually has new 390 tires. 190/65 up front, and 220/55 rear.
390 tires are still available here, and not to expencive.
I have seen many Pacecars with bad Recaroseats. Glad this was all complete, and no holes etc. Would do my very best to keep this firstyear, old Fox alive

Wow, those tires cost an arm and a leg here, when you can find them. Well the fox was supposed to be Fords attempt at an "european" style car, and you can get the right tires over there... go figure.

Nice find btw.
