Headed out in the morning to hopefully pick my next Fox. I've been hunting for months and keep coming home empty handed.



Was told it's mostly original down to the converters. We shall see, wish me luck!

Update 7/3/17: changed to a progress thread. Starting around page 5 with some minor mods!

Wow that's a nice Fox! How many miles? What's the asking price? It's not easy finding a stock low mileage 5spd 5.0 these days. Check those torque boxes, floor pans, and look for rust! Also look for cut wires under the dash and under the hood.

Best of luck!

Thanks brother, I didn't want to post about it in your thread off topic so I thought I'd make my own.
I didn't ask the miles because to me all foxes are over 100k lol. But with the pictures he keeps sending me I would not be surprised if they are super low miles.
Asking $6000 I'm going to shoot for $4500-$5500 depending on actual condition.
I will check all of those out. It's an auto but I am ok with that. Don't plan on going full tilt I need a daily driver type car.

Only my opinion but clear lenses look best with silver or polished type wheels and clear windows where as smoked looks better with tinted windows and black wheels.

Interior does look fresh usually that means the rest of the car has been maintained

Hard to find one that is not poorly modded, better luck with an auto.
