Meet my Fox





Here's my project car, 1985 Ford Mustang Gt with T-tops, unforutnately its an automatic so it has fuel injected throttle bodies instead of fuel injection or carb.

Mods so far:
Quickie Macco paintjob, headers, cervinis rear wing, LMS hood decal and dual exhaust conversion.

Mods in the near future:
17 inch Black 03 Cobra style wheels and tires.

Mods in the distant future:
FR 306 Crate Engine, manual transmission conversion and suspension upgrade.

My father had a Trans Am when I was young, searched high and low for the right t-top car, even considered a Camaro or Firebird, I had given up on a ttop Mustang when I found this one on Craigslist.

You did awesome.

My dad had a t-top Firebird when I was in junior high. Leaked like hell, but I love t-tops. I wish they'd make them again.

If they leak you can get new weather strips and silcone them from time to time.

I got a flat in my DD and took the 85out in the worst storm we had this year, I just knew I was going to be soaked but not a drop.

Congrats on the 2011's arrival, I'm still waiting for my 5.0 to arrive so I can take some pics with them together.

First new car I ever had was an '85GT Mustang, same color, no T-tops and a 5 speed. Some times I wish I had it back.
