    Worth it or not?

    I'm going to look at this tomorrow for a future drag car project. The big question is, worth it or not? Seems like a decent deal to me and its not a Stang.
    ;D

    I would check the availability of parts for that car. I'm finding that out with my '88 Turbo Coupe, ford and the aftermarket just don't make parts for it........

        Looks like a win to me. Fox chassis, so the Mustang stuff is your friend!

        You have to do it up like Animal Jim's infamous "Zeke"!

        That which you manifest is before you.

          Well a friend around here has a white Fairmount with that same roofline he would take 500 so I say the price is right.I'm a chevy guy and I thought about it for awhile. To me though it looks like a ranchero project !

              I agree but unfortunately that is a long, long term project right now. I could pick this thing up and be beating around in it in no time.

                  Animal is still around. He's not racing but he's around. He was involved with Rt66 Raceway in Joliet, Ill until they pulled the plug on their staff a while back.

                  Talk about an entertaining dude!

                    That might be a tad extreme for me Brian! ;) Hmmm, maybe a Drag Week car? ???

                      I think all fox body Stang parts fit on it.

                        Why is it not at your house yet? It's a fox underneath. They even came with V-8's (255 if ya call that a v-8) so hard parts will not be a problem. ;D

                            I'm going tomorrow after work. I figured it might be a neeto piece to play with. Been on CL for a month already so I think he'll be negotiable.
