79-93 Fox Bodies, nearly gone
 
I know there are still plenty of Fox Bodies out there, but I have noticed in the last 2 or 3 years that there are not somany for sale and if thereis they are heavily modded (more expensive) or they are beat down really badly. See, I've been checking the classifieds on these as far back as 5+ years ago and have always seen 3x the foxes for saleand there were many really good ones, by that I mean fully stock, good exterior and interior with 80-120K miles going for $5000 roughly. I was wondering if anyone else is noticing that Foxes are getting a little harder to come by.

I agree with you. Especially hard to find is the notchback. Also, you will find a lot of 4 cylinder conversions.

When I first saw the notchback i didn't like it, but have grown to like it alot lately....andyour right, its hard to come by. Now I see why people convert 4's to 8's. I'd choose a notchback over my 88 5.0 hatch now.

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.

Yea, when I bought my hatchback in Nov last year I saw one Red notch that looked to be in very good shap going for only like 3500 or 4000 should've grabbed it. Hey, do you know if they produced the notchin 87-93 and was it produced in 86 and prior.

I think the notch was produced in every year of the fox body. However, if I remember correctly, there were fewer notchs produced than GT's or LX hatch's every year. It took me about 8 months of looking hard every day (autotrader, cars.com, craigslist) to find mine. I wound up picking up a 93 that needed a little work (nothing major) for $3200.

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

I dont think they're too hard with a little looking.
Hell I just grabbed a '93 Coupe 4 cyl for an intake manifold trade.
