My little cheap beater fox
Well its nothing special, but being a broke college student, its a solid start. ive got big plans for it, and some of them may actually happen.
SPECS:
87 5.0 5spd LX Hatch
Mass air converted
Typhoon intake
Mac Shorties
2.5" exhaust and Flowmasters
Tremmec 3550
Pro 5.0 short shifter
Unknown clutch, but its rather stiff King Cobra spec 2 maybe, starting to slip anyway
3.73's in the rear.
Porno red interior.




this winter should get a 5lug and 18x9 FR500's... at minimum

madmatt, are you on carolinarides.com? if not you should be, quiet a few guys from the columbia area. do ya'll have a place to chill in lex. besides food lion? ill be home from clemson november 5-7, but it looks like i may be putting a clutch in my car, and helping a friend do a clutch and flywheel in his LS1 car.
Plans are to do suspension/brakes first since im at college need a dead reliable DD. but a cam and other bolt ons are very possible. ide like to build a motor for it over the summer, but that will depend on where life takes me over the next few months

If you guys need a hand, let me know, those transmissions are heavy suckers. Matt
lol its my actual car, just nothing special, just a driver. im 18 and its in my name and everything. folks have an 86 5.0 5spd convertable. got a set of used rear upper/lower control arms for it, should pick them up this week.
paid $2400 for it, and drove it 7hours home. its got some little issues, but what 20 year old car doesnt?
