I have a 1991 fox that started out as a rust free Florida $600 4 banger lx
I have no pride when it comes to using junk yard parts. I figure all cars
run on used parts. The rear end is 8.8 with all SN-95 brakes front spindles
and brakes are also SN-95 stuff The hood, bumpers and ground effects
are a mixture of GT and cobra stuff. Just what ever I could get cheap
The front and rear seats are 04 seats with drivers 8-way power lumber.
It's now a V-8 5 speed and I even manged to scarf up a Kenne bell supercharger. The junk man can be your friend. If you do it right the rear
seats will not have any gaps and the lower rear seat will not stick out to
far. Many mods not much money just some enjoyable time working on
my hot rod Lee

That thing looks and sounds like ****. You should get rid of it.

Fortunately, I know someone who'll take it off your hands for a few hundred

This was taken a few years ago when it was still a 4 cylinder I had just finished setting up the 8.8
and converting the car to 5 lug 4 wheel disc brakes

have to say I really like the kenne belle, man. It's nice to see something that you don't see very often on a fox.

Thanks, I kept the Air and the cruise control when I did the V-8 swap
looking back on it I'm glad I took a few extra hours to make that stuff work.
I drove this car to Tampa last August and just that few days of 100+ temps
made it worth it--Yea I ride this pony long distances
