Photo of your first Fox Mustang

My first fox. Had it for a while, traded it, and then....


I got it back a year later from the same guy, with a fresh paint job


And then, like a moron, I traded it again and I havent seen it since.

My one and only... I'm still fairly new to the Fox Mustang. I'd been around earlier versions forever.

I have two unfortunate things to say here. I don't have a pic to upload of it for one, but the other is that I still don't have my original. Like a jackwagon, I tore it down too far to where I just got another one. Many of the parts on my current one came off my old one, so it's kind of the old car in a new body, reincarnation I guess you could say.

That's one hell of a car to drive at 16.



This is my first car, got it when I was 16 also, still sitting in the garage today 5 years later, just not running.

haha, yeah i guess. it only got worse from there, when i was into my 03 cobra just before i turned 18.

if your not stupid with it, you can drive anything.

I bought this by chance for $1,800.



The name "MUSTANG" is badass when you are 16. I knew NOTHING about cars, not even the difference between a 4 cylinder and a V8. Sadly this car was a 2.3 auto that puked its auto on the way home. $1600, and a week later, I was able to drive the car. I saw a 5.0 or two around town, and damn did they look and sound awesome. I started browsing the readers riders here. I picked up a 5.0 magazine, and saw an article about an event called FFW coming to Cordova, IL in August. At the time, it was January. I told me friend right there, I would drive a 5.0 to FFW.

Here's my 89 parked at FFW, still with the temp tags in the window.



Picked it up off the original owner, 78,920 miles, 100% stock except an aftermarket cassette deck. $4,250 was the price. I worked 2 jobs that summer to save the money. Still to this day, my 89 means more to me than any other car I've ever had.

Oh, and at that FFW, I also picked up this.

Here's mine, the same as it was in 97 when it was my first car. Ive still got it and just started tearing back into her.

I drove this for a couple years sold it this last december. Bought a 1990 with a big turbo split the block and is still not running

Everyone has seen mine, but why not post again for old time's sake...

It only took 19 years for the the two us to come together. The car I always wanted in high school except now it includes a blower. I think she is going to be around for a long time...

Mine is an '89 lx purchased after Anaheim police stop using it for narcotics work. That was in 96, still have it to pass down to my first born.....not sure how to add pic from phone

Now i've got to dig up a picture of my 83 Gt hatch w/ T-tops. Dark maroon w/ racing stripes. Bought it for $400 dollars when i was 14 and worked and worked on that thing w/ my pops. It wasn't a show car when we were done, but was still one helluva great looking car for a 16 year old to be tearing up miss that car.

This was my first Fox3, an '89 GT 5-speed:



I miss that car a lot and it was even worse when I would see it around town. I sold it to get away from having a toy subject to smog checks...which makes me wonder why I later picked up an '84 SVO. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v521/65ShelbyClone/Public/Car Stuff/97c8d314.jpg Oh yeah, because it's FUN to drive.
