Yeah, I am finding out more about this car by the minute. The cage was removed, the NOS removed, the stock interior put back in it. I'm sure there is other changes too, just waiting to speak to the owner. He did have it for sale though but I still think it was a little high. Hold onto your hats fox body guys, but I sold this car in 2006 for a measly $5500 with 78,000 original miles and I was the original owner.

Still haven't been able to track down the current owner as of yet. I am really scared of the shape this car might be in now. It has been in Michigan since 2006 and I know their winters are a lot harsher than ours. But I always kept this car in the garage, I just hope all of its other owners did the same.

If it's in bad condition it just means the more fun for you to fix, and replace, and work on, and yell at.

Nope. If its in bad shape I won't buy it back if possible. Far too many other unmolested Foxes out there. I'd like to have it back for sure, but not willing to spend money if its ruined.

Talked to Randy, the owner before the current owner now. he took the cage out of the car, put all new stock interior back in it, took the draglites off and put stock ponies back on, put AC back on the car and had the mural on the decklid taken off and repainted solid red and took the NOS off the car. after all that he sold the car to a kid who then wrecked it according to him. so the car is still in Michigan, it's now a 7 owner car that was pristine and now ruined thanks to a kid who had no idea what he had. oh well, at least i have the memories...

Thanks guys! At least I found it and got to talk to one of its owners about what a great car it was. The memories will live on...
