Alright, I got a plan. I'm going to restore a 1990 LX 5.0, and get rid of my 03 V6. I'll put all the leftover money from buying and restoring the Fox (plus maybe an intake, some pulleys, etc.) and start saving for something that I really want... such as a Mach I, Cobra, or maybe whatever Ford wants to release in the 05 body style in the future. I already ripped off the 5.0 badges from a junkyard. I'm excited. :glasses2:

Sure, i'll take some before/after pics and post em here. And since I'm selling the V6, and buying the Fox for 800... I'll have a little extra change for mods... :laughing3

Just needs a fender, driver side and rear quarter windows, some paint (the car is many colors) and the clutch likes to grind sometimes in reverse. Shouldnt be too hard. I'm thinking of pearl black paint, the SVT rims off my car, flowmasters, and some interior dressups. Plus some perf. mods too. EDIT: projecter headlights to replace the nasty stock yellow lights.

LX's are lighter because they don't have the cladding. I love the way an LX notch looks
