I've been on this site since its start almost, under another user that I can't reset (email no longer in use). Anyway... You can get the fox guy out of the fox but never get the fox out of the fox guy LOL...

My current one that I've been restoring for almost a year now.




You can see the entire project on my blog but some of my previous foxes:






This is the sweet Coyote I bought and sold after a season...


They are GREAT cars, loads of power, comfort and style (much more than a fox) but it just didn't feel right for me. I prefer taking something and making it my own and a fox is pretty much one of the best platforms for this while not having to mortgage the house for parts.

Cheers!
