GMP has produced 1/18 Fox hatchbacks although just the 85 GT and the 86 SVO. For 87-up 1/18s, it's the notchback or nothing I'm afraid.

I had a '93 Cobra model and sold it to a buddy of mine who makes Billy Glidden cars, so they are out there.

IM a model Builder and there are a lot of these on eBay. I bought a Cobra 3 pack a few years and it had a 69 Mach 1, 96 Cobra convert, and the 93 cobra. IM workin on the 93 right now since It was in bad shape. I ordered a Resin Cowl Hood for it also, It'll eventually be black.

There's lots of older Fox body models on eBay. MPC/AMT made kits of the Fox from 79-84, including the SVO, then revised it for the 87 model year. The 87 GT was relreased a few years back. There's also a resin notchback body available HERE in 1/25 scale. (looking at that page, I see they've produced a 69 notchback body too. I need to get one "just in case")

Monogram made the aforementioned 1/24 93 Cobra, which is a retool of their 1979 Pace Car kit. I believe Monogram also made an SVO as well. Revell made a Fox, but it had weird fenders that were a hybrid of mustang and capri styling. They did produce a McClaren though, which is a neat little oddity.

Alot of model companies are re-releasing older models, so they are out there. Try E-bay or a local hobbyshop. You might pay more but if its what you want, go for it!!

You could buy the 85 GT hatchback, the 87 LX notchback and a hacksaw and build yourself an 87-up LX hatchback but at $100 a pop, it could get pricey!
