you need to scrub your interior with some some laundry detergent/water mix that will clean everything up, just make sure after you scrub that you use some sort of protectant on the plastic or it will dry it out too much.

I really like your car looks really clean and stock

Thanks. I looked for a long time to find one that was as rust free as possible.

This one was in New Mexico and Texas untill 2000 then it came to Indiana.

It was owned by the same family since it was new.

So I am the second owner.

I am just trying to keep it looking nice and add a few upgrades along the way. The car has 178K on it now it still runs and drives great! ......

I like your air freshener, everytime you think whats that smell



OHH yeah thats SRT-4

 

[5.0Droptop]

LOL Your ate up.......

 

[S&B]

so when does you lambo door kit show up ?

Wouldn't that be sweet you pull into a parking lot, park right next to that butt head that thinks his 91 Chevy Silverado is the ****z and parks it wayy out in the lott. Slide right in so theres about 2" between your car and his, then when he's about to yell at you, you pop that lambo door and say

" Thats Lambo Babby"

I ordered it. But it has been put on back order indefinitly.

I like!! I saw your subframes before and they still look great. The wheels are huge. They are night and day and it really stands out. I had a white GT like that, but my Pony wheels were faded BAD...worse than your befores. I never even thought of painting them back when I had it.

Keep up the good work man. It is nice to make small touches to a Fox because they are actally hugely noticeable!!
