    its close.... car on the outside and interior is imaculate. The engine bay is dry, no leaks and grease isnt everywhere.... only downfall and first thing thats getting done is the underbody needs sand blasting and everything under the car pretty much needs to be replaced.

    car came from Penn.... a lot of rust up under there. Having it inspected today to make sure the chassis isnt too bad. once we get the green light on the chassis im going to order a full suspension upgrade kit including new shocks/struts, springs, subframe connectors, k-member, control arms, etc...etc...

    Clean stang! i think youll like it

    Not trying to bash Mustangs Unlimited but if you want to save a little bit of money try Barnett(ATL based) or Holcomb Motorsports(NC based). I have shopped with these two and trust them to give the best prices.

    Good luck with your build and keep us up to date on the progress!

    Love some foxbodies but I hate that red interior they offered in some of them. Still pretty damn clean, bro.

    Thank you for all the comments! this is my 2nd Foxbody btw... I know the biggest problem with these cars is the unforgiving chassis as its not very well designed for anything other than a straight line. THe frame has a lot of flex and is not stiff at all.... soooo... i got these....

    Weld-on Subframe connecters...


    Upper front strut tower brace... its not bolted down yet....


    Lower front chassis brace....


    Rear shock tower brace....


    also picked up some rust remover and dist. cover....

    hope to have everything installed this weekend. Next will be new shocks/struts and eibach springs, control arms, bushings, motor mounts, tranny mounts.....

    once i have all the rust taken care of and the suspension done.... then the engine bay gets worked on. Everything polished of course

    i'll update next week
