Default if you had the money........

...... and were going to buy a broke down convertible to make a long project out of (engine, tranny, suspension swap etc etc) which would you choose? a 4 banger fox or a 6 cylinder sn95? i would just love to find one of these cars broken down and dirt cheap and start off with brakes and suspension and all that and maybe go 351w with a c4. i think that in a 'vert would just be an amazing cruiser that can still lay the smacketh downeth. what do you guys think and why?

Fox.

sn's just can't look badass, IMO. Good, yes. Badass, no.

ill be the oddball and say sn95.
i love my body style, altho i also love foxes.
but i mean come on u rarely ever see sn95's with 351's in them.
around me i see fox's with them every now and then.
also not too many girls like fox's, so if ur single and young, go for the sn95

i am leaning toward the sn95 for a couple reasons. first because i already have a fox and second because i think they make better looking convertibles.

plenty of girls like my fox...

they see the convertible roof and the leather and think its something sorta expensive...

usually they dont know what the hell it is[]
