You've got a lot of work ahead of yourself there. I hope your fox was a hooptie!

You gonna put the right hood on there before paint? You can see where it's rubbing on and as srtthis stated, is ruining your intake manifold in the under hood pic? No offence, but that GT hood looks like on there? Not crazy about the rear spoiler either.

With DD rear wheels, a Cobra hood, and paint I think it will be a very nice looking car. Regardless with 160K on a car in that condition, I'm betting she's been ridden very hard. Might want to consider a rebuild on that tired ass old engine, or replace it with an engine out of a Mach 1 or 99-01 Cobra.

I think it's got potential! I even think the rear spoiler along with the right wheel will look tuff. Just put a proper hood on, and not some ricer monstrocity, paint, and polish up the intake..Hell yeah.

PS: just be sure and put some meat outback... those thing look great with some deepdishes and 315's!
