Am I crazy if I wanted to trade my 95 GT, 5 spd, coupe (Minus the wheels, & suspension goodies), for a super clean 86 GT t top, 5 spd, with mass air & 5 lug swap.... I know to most its a downgrade, but I absolutely love 4 eyed T top hatchbacks....what do u think????

dont get me wrong that 86 gt is very clean i know since my friend used to owned it and helped him work on it but since he sold it that car/engine when to shit since they mess up the combo that it had it in, so now it pretty much a stock engine in it. i would just keep your car since u dont see that many clean yellow gt's around like yours.

I dont need another stang, if I get a 3rd car it needs to be a 4 banger LOL!!!!! Plus Im already broke from owning two stangs currently....

I love my sn95, but this is my 4th SN, & ive never owned a fox, so it would be a nice change & like I said 4 eyeds are my favorite Fox's, even though most people hate them....

Honestly I would say keep the car you have now. If you are going to get rid of it then use that money toward the mach and any problems it has.

The car is still very clean. Im not sure how you say the car whent to shit,maybe the previous combo did [Wink] But as far as the car going to shit, everything that was wrong with the car (previous drivetrain) has been completely changed and done the right way. And yes it is a stock drivetrain down to the airbox,disrtibutor cover,coil cover and the rubber cover that is on the drivers side of the upper intake [Eek!] .Looks about as stock as it did the day it rolled out of the factory,almost as clean too!

That 4eye is a really nice car. I wish I had the money to get it. But as far as your car goes, that looks great too. And its just as rare to see a nice sn like yours as it is to see a nice 4eye. But just because you still have the 5.0, I'd stick with what you got.

Plus foxes get stolen all the time. I'm sure you got a garage, but you don't got it when you take your car out in public.

I like that grey one, it looks really clean in the pictures. I'd go and check it out, drive it, and see if I liked it better than the sn95. Sounds like you might like to think about it for a couple days after that becuase you're yellow one looks like a clean ride too. I'd probably do it if I could get some cash back tho.

Thanks guys...yes i do have a garage, but theft is something to worry about with a fox....I still love my car, but that 86 just has that old school look & feel to it....I definately need to think about this one...

Do u think if I put my suspension back to stock & took the wheels off, that it would be an even trade if the car is as clean as it looks in the pics & it runs good???? My car still has a brand new King cobra, MM cc plates, New MSD cap & rotor, wires, & plugs & new brake pads all the way around & new rear rotors.....Plus i would be throwing on my stock Mach 1 wheels since I dont want to throw in the 03 Cobra's.....

i've only owned foxbodies. they are great cars and deserve the utmost respect. but youngsters don't see it that way these days. poor things get dogged and beat all the time. (not saying the grey one ever was!) with that said, they are so easy to steal. people with the wrong intent see these cars and if they want it, they'll take it. yes, that is true for most cars, but come on now, this is a fox mustang. they're stolen all the time. your car is very, very clean. it's not too common to see a clean SN95, 5 liter on the road nowadays. keep the SN!

god id trade that sn95 with a quickness,lol I use to hate 4 eyes and now i love them so much because they are rare and most people get the 87-93 look. I wish i had the extra cash and space but i already have 3 mustangs in the famliy so [Frown] dont get me wrong your sn95 looks clean,but i think the wheels is what makes it diffrent than other sn95's which makes yours really nice,what rims are those by the way if you dont mind? [patriot] . I really dont dig sn95, but we got one too.lol Good luck,both clean cars!

If you really want a fox go for it. Personally I think your yelllow GT is a looker and I;d keep it.
I would do fox body if I was going to build an uber fast street car though.

You are crazy but do what you want. If you like the 4 eyes better then trade it but i think the 94-98 models are the best besides classics.

I don't know Dustin... That 86 is pretty sick. I'm not sure how much you have invested into your GT, but its rare that you see a clean 86 on the road these days. I think that 86 would get my attention on the road more than your GT. No offence, your GT is as nice as it gets. But you already have a sweet SN95 Mach1.
I say mix it up a little if its as nice in person and a good running car.
