ok now tell me this, how the hell am i supposed to pass emissions, to start off with im gonna throw in a stock h pipe (one on it is a offroad h with no cats) and i dont htink the engine has all the stuff needed like smog pump and all that crap. i wasnt really thinking when i bought the car, just so happy to get one, and im in love with it now, dont want to get rid of it, so how much would i have to do to get this thing legal. cause i want to drive. worst case scenario we repaint it and resell it and make alot of profit. but i want this fox
do you have the sniffer test by you?

for me they dont, and thats good cuz I have no cats nor do I want them...


if you do, try to inspect it, or find a shady shop and toss em a fifty and get a sticker....

From what I see on your video, the first thing you will need are rear tires!
Great find and good luck.

Take it easy man lol. I know your excited and having fun, but these cars can get away from you quick especially with stock suspension. Hell i'm 36 and mine got away from me a couple of months ago. Of course the cold weather, bald drag radials and the built 357 did not help, and i've got full suspension set up for straight line.

im not an idiot and gonna do something stupid, I made sure there were no cars, this road is like 2miles deadstraight so nobody else was in harm, if i get hurt its my fault. but i understand what ya mean.

most likely ill be headed down to Reynolds (silverdollar raceway) next weekend to run it. and eventually have hte gears installed
