Here's a couple Polaroid pics of my vert from way back in the day. The first is the day we bought it in December 1988. My wife is in that pic. LOL
The second is a few months later after I had the Dealership repaint the bottom half Titanium Grey.

Found some more pics digging through my archives. Some of these are scans of pics I took.

Mid-interior conversion.


After having the car repainted around 2000. Note the porno red interior and pony wheels



Stock 5.0 engine days. What was I thinking??



Now we are reaching way back.



Mid 5-lug swap. Did the front first with SVO rotors. Rear was done a few weeks later



Why did I ever put a Saleen wing on this car?


Oh and this was my entire interior the day I stripped it from the parts car I bought for $500...and then parted out for $2K after I got the interior

I don't know why I ever liked Saleen wings. Used to love them, they do nothing for me now

Same here. One of my biggest regrets with the car. Was happy when I got a stock LX wing back on.

I don't own it anymore, but this was my '86 GT I had in high school in the mid 90's...


The car normally rode on Centerline Autodrag skinnies with 295/50's out back, or Ponys with Z-rated Pirellis. But I can only find photos of it with the 10-holes. Unfortunately I sold the car to a kid who later rolled it into a corn field and got killed.


This is probably a few months before I sold it. I went through 3 AOD rebuilds and 2 fresh AODs in this car, this was the last one before I sold it. I fell asleep when I got done with the install, my folks came home late and snapped the photo. Seeing the upper plenum under the workbench makes me think this might have been during a cam/intake swap I did, I don't remember.


This is my group of friends in high school with our cars. Most were 12-13 second cars, which back then wasn't bad for daily driven street cars. Mine is the 3rd from the right. A few still have their same cars to this day, all of us are still into cars and drag racing.


This was the bigger group of street racers from our area, probably taken in '96 or so, my car is 5th from the left. We didn't take many pics, back then you had to wait for the pics to be developed and actually pay money for that! 15 fox bodies in this photo, and that was only a quarter of the street cars that were in the area.
