Ahhhhhhh g body makes me happyI have a coworker that just bought a sweet 79 malibu. I need to get some pics of it, but he doesn't drive it to the plant very often. @TOOLOW91 would like this one.
Allen, here's one for you . Guy has to have $2000 in parts in the car... If I had the space I'd offer $1500 and part it out.

have a 1995 mustang GT that currently won't start. I have a good amount of parts in the car that will be listed below. The car will not start and I am not sure why it wont. It sounds like it wants to turn over but just isnt getting the proper fuel/air/spark to keep it going. I had a compression test done on the cylinders which were all between 143-151psi dry and 168-170psi wet. Text Tim at show contact info anytime if you are interested. I have a clean title in hand

Wow, that is one hot fox !I don't actually mind the hood that one that one either. I'd prefer the 82 hood.
The other thing that is super hard to find is the side molding. Nobody reproduces the pre-86 that I'm aware of. If someone else does, post it up.
@Davedacarpainter Saw this while looking for something else.

Meh... Not a huge fan of classifieds posted in discussion forums.
PM dat
not my car but from the ad, yes.
It's not just foxes. All the 80s bic razor cars are going up. G bodies, f bodies, everyone wants their high school car back. I was honestly ready to sell mine, but they are just steadily creeping up.I haven't been up to speed lately on the value of Fox bodies as I'm neither buying or selling and kinda was out of the loop for a few years, but holy hell when did these things take off?
Looking on CL and Ebay, I see the value of clean cars approaching $7-10K! Nothing special, 100-125K miles, stockish, but clean.
Have they really gone up?

In another 10 years we will see decent foxes bringing 15+ with the crap parts cars running in the 4-5 mark. I know these cars were mass produced and for that reason no one was afraid to junk them or cut them up into race cars. Makes the nicer road worthy ones just that much more valuable.

79-84 someone needs to make these. How hard can stick on molding be to make.

browsing around other stand sites in the classified, found a lot of owners asking $10K+ for their "average" 100K+ mile Fox 5.0's.
Seriously?
Don't get me wrong, these are clean, tasteful cars. But at we really at that point where a stockish, clean LX hatch with 130K on the clock is worth $11K?
