First thing first! Make sure the beast has FLOORS If it is a T top and been sitting in a yard make sure that the floorboards are 1 not twisted and 2 not all rotted away! This was a problem with most fox but especially bad in the t tops since they would leak!

Get the 4 cyl
Mines a big rust bucket too.

Just start throwing new parts at it and you'll have
a new Fox-Body when you're done.


I making a brand new car here.

New a/c system
New heater core
New interior
New paint with complete strip and sand blast and body kit
New rear bumper core support
New floor pans
New engine
New axle
New radiator
New spindles, brakes
New brake booster and master cylinder.
New brake lines
New fuel lines
New gas tank with all new sub-parts
New spings, control arms, shocks and sway bars.
New parking brake cables
New windshield

about the only major old original things I'll have left on the
whole car will be the k-member and front lower A-arms.
