Yo man you had me scratching my head, LOL..
It's freaking 25 degrees here on long island & I thought my brain froze & it was 20 years,
My Mustang is a first foxbody for me but I'm 45 yrs old & have owned some older Mustang & recently a sweet classic cougar as well as many other classics..
But anyways, 13 years is a good run for these muthers { or is it 20 } ? LOL:eek:

Any reasonable condition/priced FOX of any style starting to get a little hard to find here in Arizona as well.
I think prices have been trending upward in last 2-3 years.
What hasn't been?

Is it true that the 85 and the 86 lx coupes 5.0 arelimited production? I bought my 86 coupe ten years ago and I have yet to see another one on the road in my area. I rarely see any for sale. I see hatch and 4 cyl cars every now and then.

In the early years they made more notch but the later year they made less. So I was wrong overall but with 938,686 Coupes and 1,375,405 Hatchbacks it was 40 to 60 percent.

Anyway you would think with over 900k made there would be more out there. In the Northwest you see 20 hatch for every 1 notch for sale.

To me it's very funny how hard it is to find a good Notchback. They made just as many Notch as Hatch but all I see for sale are Hatch. When you do find a good Notch it's very expensive.

I had to look for 3 years to find a good one for a cheap price. And it was a 4 and yellow.

Not true. Here's a web site that has production models and how many sold.

i am on the opposite side of the fence then you guys. i am trying to unload a notch which i think is in pretty good shape. probably another 300 for interior parts and the car would be mint. i think cause it is a auto it hurts the value but a brand new paint job on a 91 coupe auto with 85k i can't get a reasonable offer for the car. i have been asking 5500 but get alot of lowball offers that i am not interested in. car is 100% mechanically not a damn thing wrong with it. only thing is the stupid front seats are dirty because of the previous owner. ohh yea i am the second owner of the car also. original v8 car and everything. so it goes to show you i think it is just harder to sell these cars and i see a bunch of them forsale. when i wanted to buy a notch i couldn't find one for the life of me. now the market around me seems to be flooded.

RE: 79-93 Fox Bodies, nearly gone
 
I have been thinking. Maybe even though 40% were notch, maybe most of them were 2.3 cars and not 5.0. And maybe most 5.0 were hatch.

This would explain why you don't see many Notch's around, once a 2.3 car wears out you throw it away, they are not as collectable as the 5.0 cars.

Does anybody know of any production number that state the percentage of engine types by body types?
