Pete's New Project Fox Body!
I shouldn't say its a project , b/c this car is flawless . Only has 14279 original miles. Car has been garaged kept all its life and has no dents or scratches, not even rock chips.
Here are a few pics , I dropped off a deposit yesterday and will be picking it up in three weeks. My plan is to do the following: Built SBF 331ci Dart Iron Eagle Block 4 Bolt Mains Re-use the Edelbrock Aluminum Heads which are match ported to Intake. Steeda Pro rear Drag suspension Kit . The car already has a Ford Racing RPM Extender Anderson Fords PMS Performace Automatics Super Comp C4 Fuel System Complete. The Owner gave me a UPR K-Member kit complete with a-arms and caster camber plates . Flaming River Manuel rack w / adjustable steerig shaft All are brand new haven't been installed yet. My origial plan was to put a Turbo Kit in place of the Vortech , but I think since its a Old School car there's nothing like a bad ass motor and that vortech sound. Besides it will make things easier, all I would need to do is upgrade the supercharger to a T-Trim . Car should ru in the 9s I think . Well here are some pics.

Nice....I agree there's nothing like the sound of a Vortech S/C on there! Is it an '89 model?
That must be a rare color...hardly ever see it. My coupe has the same color firewall and aprons underhood so must've been the same code.

Yeup its an 89 LX, I believe it was the 1st year you were able to get the GT Interior also an anniversary model I think I could be wrong. Not many in that color . I checked today with my buddy he said the s/c had already been sent back and upgraded to a R-Trim , so I guess I can keep things as they are. Pete
