'90 Fox Body Rebuild! :-)
I figured I would step out of my GM world and venture into something new. I've never owned a ford product... ever.. I sold my '71 Oldsmobile 442 a few years ago and am itching to get something fast again.. I went from nearly 600hp to my Acura TSX with 265hp.... :-( I bought a '90 fox body stang for my wife so she could drive something until I get her the SUV she wants. I picked it up pretty cheap and knew I'de have to do some work before she would drive it... Women... always picky!! I'll be posting pics of all the work I do on the car. First is the body work so it looks good down the road, then i'll be upgrading the rear, engine and interior. I'm not going to go CRAZY as its her car and yes...... its an AUTO...... I know I know i ruined it. But she has no intentions of learning how to drive a manual. The engine has been rebuilt at my work with 10k miles on it. It is BONE stock, even with the stock air cleaner! I'm going to try and keep it at about 300hp for her but we'll see. After she gets her SUV it will either be sold or traded in on another stang... YES a manual! So here are the pics of the progress...... Please all comments are welcome! (My friends in the pic painting the car... not me)

Here's more pics of the car. The priming of the jams is done. Figured we needed to spray some color now.
The Color i went with is Candy Apple Red with a gold dimond pearl mixed. The color came out amazing! I'll post more pics of the finished project. After the body is done i'll be working on the engine. I'll post pics of everything i do almost step by step.
