Here is a new ride i picked up today. Yes the wheels and tires are getting changed, they look so gay. Anyways 302 crate motor, alum heads, vortech v2, t-56 full bassani 3" exhaust with long tubes, aeromotive fuel system, upr tubular front end, coilovers front/rear, baer 5 lug discs f/r and a bunch of other crap. Hopefully it should run, will have to check the tune as soon as it gets a little cooler. The guy said that it puts 500 to the wheels, we will see.

Looks like a well put together car! Does the top close with that roll bar? Mesa was a nice town to party in. I was able to take advanced drivers training and drive some of the Vette's at the Desert Proving Grounds there while I lived in New Mexico.
 
The top closes great, roll bar is only 4pt, might upgrade to at least a 6. It is only a streetcar!! I figure, beauty and the beast with my other fox.

That is a beautiful foxbody. I want halo headrests like that eventually if I keep my factory seats a while longer. I need to get rid of the gangster lean first though.

How can you call draglites gay? Best wheel for a fox!

Nothing wrong with draglites, just dont like the look of this car with the 325's sitting 2 inches outside the wheelwell. I will probably go with a better offset wheel and a smaller tire.
 
Nice car. Love your other vert. Is it minitubbed? I am guessing not, and thats why they stick out. They wont fit without minitubbing. Put a 275/60 MT radial on a 15x10 with 6.5 backspacing and you are in bidness!

I was thinking that, i am sure that i will have no issues with a 27560 under it. Was also thinking on doing 17's on it or either billet specialties. We will see, first things first, i want to go over the whole car, the guy pretty much just finished it, also want to make sure that the tune is safe, don't want to blow it up the first time out.

It will look much better. The way it is right now puts it in the "mullet-mobile" catagory.

Did you go to churchill?
