Need Help Considering Buying A Fox

one_bad_5.0 · Aug 19, 2008

hey, im more of an sn95 guy but I've always liked/wanted a fox. I found a 83 gt 5 speed ttop hatch for 1600. the body's in nice condition...all it needs is a battery, tires, and a brake line. Do you think this is a good deal? What should I look out for on these older foxes, I'm not as familiar with the older foxes. Thanks!

buy it

one_bad_5.0 · Aug 19, 2008

does the price seem good? i was going to offer 1250 and work from there. does that seem fair?

Check for rust around the strut towers, especially the drivers side.
The price sounds right, if it everything checks out get it.

Then convert it to an areo nose.

Is that a ban hammer I hear in the distance? as much as I like areo noeses, i think I'd leave it 4 eye...I've only seen one around me.

****** that thing up man. 1,600 is not bad at all but you can always shoot a bit lower and see if they bite. Those things are getting harder to find every day.

I was just joking for ol' Frankie. Foxes are getting to old to change them up anyway and that one appears to be nice and soild.

Do it, 4 eye T-tops ftw

cervinistang · Aug 20, 2008

T-TOPS can be a bitch too. if your willing to do some extra labor and more cash then sure. id offer 1k

NIKwoaC · Aug 20, 2008

Oh, I'd definitely jump on it if it doesn't have issues with rust. Those cars are getting VERY hard to find. T-Tops FTMFW. Are those iron cross hubcaps?

one_bad_5.0 · Aug 20, 2008

I'm hopefully going to look at it this weekend. I was talking to the guy and he said that it was painted 3 yrs ago but didn't get cleared so it faded. The only major problem is peeling on the hood but thats no big deal. I love t-tops but i hear they can be a pain in the ass...anyone that has em feel free to comment.

LiquidGT · Aug 20, 2008

I'd put some sub frame connectors on it right away, that little "T-bar" goes a long way to keep the car in shape. I heard the T-top cars didnt have any extra support, at least the 'verts had some extra factory bracing.

one_bad_5.0 · Aug 20, 2008

Huh, I would of thought that Ford would of done some bracing from the factory to help compensate for the loss of part of the roof...

If you get it, only enter the vehicle by jumping in through the T-top.
