Yesterday, I finally got what I have wanted for a long time. I picked up a 91 LX coupe which is my 1st Fox body. I already have an 03 Mach 1 in my stable which is my baby, & I have owned 3 SN95's which include a 95 GT, 96 GT, & a 97 Cobra. But I have never had a Fox & I have been yearning for a white coupe. I traded my Canary yellow 95 GT for this car after I removed all the good parts from the 95 that will swap over....

The coupe is unmolested & in excellent shape, & runs great, & besides the fact its an AOD, its exactly what I wanted. I will be swapping out the AOD for a 5 speed in the next few months & then I will be doing a 5 lug swap & installing my black deep dish 03 Cobra's that were on the 95. I eventually will swap out the porno red interior, although it is in good shape, but I want all black interior....I also have the Bilsteins & MM LCA's that were on the 95 & these will be on the car in a few weeks. For now, the car is bonestock besides sportlines, BBK o/r h, & magnaflow catback.

Anyway, here she is.....











Porno Red interior in all its glory....LOL!!! This will eventually get swapped out but honestly, I dont mind it much....

Thanks guys... Although I will miss the sleek & sexy lines of my SN95, I am very happy with this car. i cant wait to see what the wheels look like too...

Here are the wheels I am referring too... I know since they are 17X10.5 in the rear, it will take a bit of modding, but i know I can get these to fit. I will probably need a 285/35/17 tire, quad shock removal, fender rolling, & I will beat in the inner fender a bit...

Thanks......I will if they fit, but i have MM lower control arms & quads arent needed when you have better bushings in the LCA's...I will try to keep them on though. maybe if i remove the dust boot they will fit??

You possibly might just be able to get away with swapping them. Although on my 9 inch wheel with 275's the quads are almost touching.

Awesome find! Looks really clean and stock! Not crazy about the red interior, but being a notch makes up for it!

Very nice, I was looking for pretty much that exact car for my new daily driver before I ended up buying the G35. I love a white notch

Thanks guys...I will most likely keep the red for a long time. As far as why I was covering only the fox plates because I havent registered it in my name yet & its still in the previous owners name since DMV isnt open on the weekend. I usually dont show my plates at all, but i have posted my personalized plates on stangnet before, so no need to hide em I guess?? Why do we block our plates anyway???

If your running better control arms and bushings i would ditch the quads also. I don know what the hell people are talking about going airborne?? Thats just crasy talk. I dont run quads on my car and i dont have any wheel hop issues. And fwiw my 26x10.5 sportsmans would rub the quads they barely miss the tailpipes.
