Well guys I started the project of trying to put this car back together
Here it is
I pulled all the interior and had the seats reupholstered. And I'm dynamatting the interior and putting in a complete black interior. I was able to find some items in black but overall I'm painting everything black myself.
I have all the interior waiting as well as a set of 18x9 chrome saleen wheels that, I will put on once I complete my 5 lug conversion.
I was planning on doing a 5.0 4V swap but leaning towards a 351w swap at this time. And the car is currently at the body shop. The front aprons have to get replaced as well as the radiator support. It should be done by mid December the guy is doing it as a side job as a favor to my brother and I.
I'll post pics once the interior is in.
Update I went with a forged 4.6 Teksid block with 03 Mach 1 heads and intake. Manley rods,pistons and arp hardware with 98 cobra cams

I did sand them done and I'm using the stock paint color that I bought from 5.0 resto. So far so good. Once I'm done I'll post the updated pictures of it. I wasn't planning on going to this extreme but once I started it was hard not to.

Seems like after I bought my turbo kit 2 months ago I've noticed atleast 5 other members boosting their rides.

I've had this car for 8 months and been piecing it together after I sold my 03 cobra. I was already boosted ![[Smile]](smile.gif) . Now I'm just looking to finish this MODFOX project and go turbo. What setup do you have on your fox?

Yeah I'm sure alot of people had something on the burner for the winter, and now that its getting nice outside, people are interested in modding their ride's again. So far I'm going 363 dart I E with a 70mm turbo, but its not assembled yet, so.. the combo isn't set in stone yet. Mod turbo should be pretty potent.

sounds like you will have a mean setup. Yeah I have everything now it's just about the assembly. So hopefully in the next few weeks. Everything will come together nicely.

With the turbo probably not. NA It might be done. The hold up will be my fuel and turbo setup. Custom is $6500 for a twin setup. But I might just do a single. A local guy here has the On3 setup on his 2V and it's doing very nicely and put down 672rwhp so it's not doing to bad. I'd figure I can always upgrade the turbo later.
I'm just looking at getting it started for now and installing all the crap I already have.
You'll love my suspension setup MM all around

Yeah man I'm a lil jealous. I came up on the front stuff, but need the rear, strut tower brace, sub frames and junk. Money money money. The real question is when are you gonna toss me the keys.

Well once it starts and the bugs get worked out. That way it will give you flashbacks of your old fox

Finally figured out the wiring issues I was having. So I'll be trying to finish it up in the next few weeks. Just need to put everything together fill the fluids and try and fire it up.
I ended up going with a 2003 Mach motor which I did a forged build with a Teksid block and using the mach 5 speed for now. I will be doing a single turbo setup on here as it's comp ratio is at 8.5.1. Fuel system is Glenns performance sleeper tank setup good up to 1000hp, using two external pumps.
