Reluctantly, I’m putting her up for the winter. Both because I know winters coming and want to be prepared, and two, because the wife is gonna have so much Xmas s__t piled behind it that I’m not gonna be able to get it out anyway. Fueled her up, Stabil in the tank, 8oz Marvel Mystery Oil in the crankcase full of fresh oil and another season comes to an end. It’s amazing how the time flies the older you get. Crazy. And it’s gonna be extra tough because I finally had her supercharged this year, and as much as I love to drive her, it’s even better now. Like I said, it’s gonna be a long winter.

Thank you very much guys. As far as pics, don’t have any with the SC Replica wheels that I just put on, just the one in the garage. The other pics are all with the chrome pony’s, which I loved, just not on my car. The silver on the SC wheel goes better with the lower half of my car. And the last pic was after the supercharger install. I wasn’t fishing for compliments when I put up this post, but I really appreciate all of the positive feedback. Especially from people like you all who are Fox fanatics like myself. Very gratifying. Thanks

My 88 vert had the same color combo. I bet yours used to have the blue stripe in the bumpers and moldings being an 87.

Yup. Lol. Don’t know what Ford was thinking. It was electric blue. Made no Sense. But it was so ‘80’s.

Mine has the bright blue stripe and I liked the eighties!
Ok, the eighties were not that hot for some things but I like my stripe.

Funny thing is, it would probably look good with that stripe back on. I just don’t have the balls to do it. Lol
