Hey guys n gals, thanks for having me. Me and the misses own 2 fox's now. Recently was gifted our '88 big block car. The '92 has a 306 small cam, T5. Fun street car nothing crazy. The '88 is setup for a 460/C6. Currently has no motor/trans in it. We plan to get it running hopefully soon then figure out how to build it. I will be looking to anyone who has done a BBF in a fox or for any BBF stuff for advice in the near future.

I'll be posting a breakdown of what we have so far in another thread. Just wanted to say thanks for having me here!

'88 on the left. '92 on the right. (with my sportster in the background)

I'm looking forward to it. My wifes parents were into racing and I was never really into it until we met. Neither of us have ran down the track so for now we are just looking for a mild combo until we get comfortable then we will turn things up.

The flag car was white, and the big block car was green. These paint jobs are pushing 15 years. They're definitely 10 footers now but they have sentimental history.

Eventually yes. For now I think we will just do a stock rebuild with a cam.
