Why so many body lines?

Why so many body seams?

Why do foxbodies have so many seams lines? I wish there was a way have full bumpers and fenders to get rid of the body lines. I hate that corner over the headlights and the that the front bumper doesn't go all the way to front wheel well with the moldings. Just a rant I'll see if you guys agree.

Buy a friggin scion econobox then, if you hate how they look why did you buy one?

I think they look fine.

The Fox has a unique and immediatly recognizeable body line. I love the way a Fox looks and wouldnt change a thing.

Can't do anything about the lines above the headlights, unless you plan on never having to take the bumper cover off, then you could just fill them. If you don't like the line where the fender extension meets the bumper cover, you could install a Saleen air dam .

bditty50, were you talking about "body lines", or seams where panels meet?

The body seams there are so many. I love foxes I've owned 3 its just there are so many body seams on these cars.

Front and rear bumpers, doors, hood, hatch, fuel door... am I missing any? Seems to me every car has the same body seams?

WHERE IN THE HELL DID YOU FIND HIM?!!? mine has been missing for weeks!

You could always get inside the car and then have a buddy bondo all the door seams closed, problem solved for everyone.

tannerc91gt · Aug 10, 2009

But welding would give a much cleaner look

The seams on these cars make waxing a PITA, but then again waxing just sucks anyway.

Look at every car from the 80's. Every car was made like that back then. I think its fine, I've thought about if Foose got to a fox and tried thinking about what he would change and I can't think of anything. lol I think they are perfect the way ford made them.

Yeah, cars have way too many seams between their easily replaceable panels. All cars should have one-piece stamped sheet metal bodies, that way when you get into a fender bender it costs 10k to replace the entire thing. Wow.

More like funny cars, 1 piece bodies, you just lift them up and get in, who needs functional lights and windows when you have a parachute
