I went and looked at it Friday night and my parents went and picked it up saturday morning. Its a 91 hatch with a rebuilt 5.0. Its pretty much stock except for flowmasters, x pipe, shortie headers,
k&n, msd ignition, and a b&m shifter. I picked it up for $5,200 so im pretty happy. It spins the tires through 1st gear and some in 2nd
. I got the cops called on me already and ive only had it for 2 days. They said they got complaints about a speeding vehicle through my neighborhood
Anyways im happier than ive ever been right now.
dude dont kill yourself in it, be safe, or you'll end up like i did with my first fox... not trying to scare you, jack your thread, or anything, but dont make the same dumbass mistakes i did. heres some pics, again, im not trying to scare you.
my left kneecap was shattered, heres a pic (not my actual leg) of what it looked like after $8,000 worth of surgery...

x-ray, (also not mine, but identical)
before i broke my leg i was a wrestler in highschool, i wrestled 171lb weight class, i graduated in 06 in a cast at about 185lbs. heres a pic of me at prom, i could barely walk as i was in a full fiberglass leg cast.

so with the broken leg came down time, i spent a month on the couch, and for 6 months after the accident it hurt too bad to exercise, i gained about 80 pounds.

i have a new fox, a 90GT, 331, fivespeed. I drive it like a grandmother 90% of the time on the street, i dont speed, and i am respectful of other people on the road. I look back at myself now and think how lucky i was to not have been hurt much more seriously or worse. Im not trying to preach to you at all, thats dumb, i know the kid in me 3-4 years ago prolly woulda told the man i am now to **** off and burnt rubber in his face. And im not trying to tell you that horsing around is wrong, i still do it, its just there is most deffinately a time and place to be an idiot with your car, and around you, or anybodies neighborhood, isnt the place. Im 21 now and i still love foxes, and im happy for you, your car looks awesome, but i hope you dont **** up like i did, cuz every time i walk up a flight of stairs, ride a bike, dance with a hot girl, work the centerforce on my gt, i get a sharp reminder of why its NOT worth it. not to mention the huge scar on my left knee. I hope all you younger guys, 15-20 somethings, get something out of all the **** i put myself through. Have fun with your car man, its a really nice car btw, be safe, and keep outta trouble!
