Not a single person except my shop teacher (who is into fox bodies) can figure out how to open the doors correctly. I went to look at an 88 fox today for my friend and when I opened the door the guy was like OMG you opened the door, you are the first one to do it correctly! I know it is a little stiff and you have to twist a little, but damn, is it annoying. I never thought about it until someone mentioned it. Is this a normal thing with these cars or do me and this guy happen to have stiff handles?

Yeah mine got worse after new weatherstrip. You need to use your thumb and push it while lifting up with your fingers, done. It's no wonder why people break the rivets off all the time.

Hmm. Ive never had to to do that with my car. Mine works like all my other fords.

Lol I didn't think about it but my passenger door is like that and no one can ever get it open and then I go and do it and it seems sooo easy. My inside handle is a little worn out so it moves to about half open before it seems to catch anything to pop the door open and they strugle with that tooo.

same with my 79' everyone tells me I locked them out, I have easily opened the passenger door for them when they though tit was locked. I guess it's just a Fox thing, I never really paid much attention to it, I've ben in so many.

People tend to get stuck inside mine. The inside handles on the 79 are down by the floor, people go to get out and they're like, ahh wtf where is the handle ????
