  • Matt Farah's from The Smoking Tire Project Fox

    Looks like this will be a cool project to follow:

    Farah’s Fox-body Mustang as a project car needed to put down some baseline numbers before the ball got rolling, which is what this next video is all about.


    The Car:

          I think that line feeds the vac can or charcoal can on the explorer.



          Also, I didn't think there were any red SSP cars. The speedometer only reads to 140, not 160. I think he just has a stripper coupe.
          Good judgment comes from bad decisions and a lot of that comes from bad judgment.

              He explained that in one of the vids. Previous owner painted the engine compartment and block red, he was going to paint the entire car that color but never did. I didn't catch the speedo though.

                  I posted before I watched the whole video. And yeah, maybe, but what about the speedometer?

                    The 88 SSP cars came with 140 mph speedos, where the regular 5.0 came with 85 mph.

                      My old 5.0 has that stupid 85mph speedo as well. Was horribly terrifying to max out the speedo and have no idea how fast you were going.

                        Thats the best part. Sometimes it better to not know.

                          I really miss the simplicity of the fox bodies. Might be time to subject myself to that frustrating brand of delight once again.

                            It does not go over well with the police as well. I was in a 75 doing.... I dunno and got pulled over. Cop asked if I knew how fast I was going and I said "No sir, speedometer stops at 85." He was not amused.
