Doesn't seem like the best idea to me. I'm not bashing your idea, I was really considering getting a Fox as well as my '05 for a while. I came to the conclusion that I don't want 2 projects nor 2 cars that suck in the snow/bad weather. Ideally I'd have a dd/beater that's good in the winter and on gas, and a fun car that isn't that I could dump money into and have fun with when it's nice.

Pretty much what everyone else is saying

I put a tan top on it, just like it had before. But it definitely looks better than that old original top!

At the first sign of nice weather I dd my 04 until the winter then the beater comes back out.

I'm also suprised by this Idea of yours Teej because your pretty advant about the fact you like comfort and handling and driveability with IRSes and all that jazz, and now you wanna DD a old fox body your gonna pick up cheap. Its gonna be like running a limo through twisties and its gonna ride like a beer can full of BBs.....
