This one’s for JG

At our track day today. I'm not a hard core Fox body guy, but this thing is yummy. There's a suspicious whine coming from under hood. 

Also, what year is it right now?

In reply to Keith Tanner :

I like it as well. Mostly becuase I have an LX hatch in the exact same color.

I am also tempted to bolt a supercharger on mine as well.

Looks ike the parking lot of my comunity college

There was a period of time, probably late 90's, that roughly half the cars at the local drag strip were Fox chassis Mustangs with a suspicious whine from under the hood.  All of them were quick, and some were nuts.  Street driven 11 second cars, which was a really big deal 30 years ago.

You forget how small Fox-body Mustangs are in today’s world. 

I love that spoiler on the LXs. 

Never mind that Fox stuff, there's a running Alfa 164 in the group??

In reply to pres589 (djronnebaum) :

Sure was. And it was moving like it was on the original shocks :) He also brought a 75 that he'd picked up the day before, but it didn't make an appearance on track.

Here's what he brought last month. Apparently there are a couple of Montreals at the shop as well.

I love some fox body, but is no one going to say anything about that awesome 78-ish Firebird Formula?   Between those two and the rare/cool Alfa sedan, you sure have some interesting track days.   

In reply to Keith Tanner :

Not you usual track cars. Very cool to see. 

It's a good group, lots of interesting stuff. Many Miatas (duh), a few generic newer Mustangs, the FIrebird, a third gen Camero that has some serious scoot from a lot of homebrew mods, an ex-Spec Miata that is mostly made of aero driven by a Ford engineer, an Audi-powered 944, a supercharged S197 Mustang with slicks as big as a house, G35, Model 3 Performance on slicks, an old Toyota pickup. What we don't have is a large number of high dollar new cars.

Snap!

This is my car sandwiched between a Scion XB and a Toyota RAV4.

Love the 'FOUREYE' plate on the Fox body.

And a 5-lug conversion?

I'd bet the "5.0" badge undersells the actual engine displacement.

Definitely 5 lug (as is mine) and as you are probably aware a 351 a relatively easy conversion.........they even make kits for Coyote engines.

I wish I'd bought one sooner. 

My brother bought an 83 GT new. Black on black. I loved driving that car. The size seemed right and the motor was great. I wish I had bought one back then and kept it.

Crazy stuff, huh? 

In reply to David S. Wallens :

When my Foxbody is parked in the garage next to my Datsun 1200 it looks huuuuuge.

As soon as I pull it out of the garage and it's next to my wife's Santa Fe it shrinks.

I think there might be some transformer level magic going on here.

While we are spotting Fox bodied creations at autocrosses... Spotted at Moultrie Georgia last Sunday.

Total custom suspension front and rear, splitters, spoilers, custom flairs, cage, lots of power.  Quite the build.
