I really want to build another fox, but it is so hard finding for so cheap like I did with my foxbody. Any suggestion on where i can get one cheap?

I kept searching craigslist and forums. I bought mine the last week of December when everything is cheaper. Tax season is still going on so prices will start dropping in a couple months.

I found mine on craigslist 2 years ago for a decent price. Nowadays I see a good amount for a fair price on Facebook marketplace, mostly hatches.

While I need another car like I need another hole in my head, I looked through the listings on Craigslist several times a week over the past several years for Fox bodies of any year. Always a few interesting cars and I found my '91 convertible on there.

If anyone has noted my statements being in past tense, good eye. Craigslist has pretty much dried up for "good deals" (i.e. cheap deals). They've implemented a $5 listing fee for cars and the cheaper Fox bodies have all but disappeared. Guess that leaves Facebook Marketplace now. Too bad for me, I don't do Facebook!

Foxes are just too expensive where I am to consider a 2nd one.

However, a 94-95 Cobra can be had for fairly cheap compared to a beat up fox. Seems like a good alternative if cheap foxes are lacking in availality

Yeah maybe,...You just got to be able to tolerate being made fun of at the cruise-ins.

As opposed to the "That's a Mustang? Looks like an escort" that I get now?
