Talk some sense into me... Foxbody infatuation

[smrr1]

Hey now don't go chasing down my car

Just got a new truck. Not in a position to buy anything. That would be a dick move anyway.

This is DFWMustangs...

[smrr1]

well did you get it?

[68RR]

why was that car at 4k RPM with no one in it?

one of the things needing repaired...

[akfodysvn]

Oh yeah! It is so clean on the inside. Exterior is in good shape too... very happy. Not perfect but I also didn't pay near his asking price.

I am hoping to find someone who could repair the factory radio. It is getting power and has a good ground at the radio. It will not turn on however. Previous owner said it worked up until this spring and then quit. Interestingly it came on one morning for a minute and then turned off. That was the only time.

I really like the look of the factory head unit so it would be nice if I could find a place to repair it as it's out of my skill level.





This shows the difference between the color from sun to shade... pretty cool color. 1 of 513 Royal blue LX hatches ever made. Documented 30k mile car.

Nice find man! I want one.

Radio repair

I have used this guy several times. He can definately help you out. The last job he did for me was repairing the factory AM/FM cassette with 7 band graphic equalizer out of my 1991 Fox GT.

Damn nice. I have only seen the color in person once. A friend in high school had one.

Need help as my emotions are getting the best of me on a car:

91 GT, 75k miles. Exterior red and is damn near perfect in every way. Interior is a mint and I mean MINT black interior with everything present. Car is all original down to the air silencer except the battery, tires, and alternator. Car is an AOD which brings the value down but damn this car is clean and I don't mind the AOD at all. You would think this car had 30k miles and not 70k.

The price is $9k... and he seems pretty tight on it. That being said this car is nice as heck and my plan would be to keep it original and just cruise it.

Backstory:
My first real car was a fox GT 15 years ago. I married the woman who I dated all my life and through HS driving that car. I have so many great memories of my first fox that it's making it hard to say no to this car. My dad has been a factory worker his whole life and when he got his "20 year gift" of a Rolex (not DFW baller rolex), he sold it to the jeweler and bought my foxbody.

Things have happened over the years. I sold my first fox to buy my wife's ring when I joined the service. Then I sold my new edge when we moved to Okinawa. Finally sold my next fox after we moved back to the states and bought our first home.

Interested to see what you guys have to say as these don't come up locally very often at all.

Over half of all purchases are emotional

It is rare. I am confident it is the lowest or top 10 lowest mile lx hatch in royal blue.

Thanks. I am going to try and find something a little closer.

That fucker looks brand new. Only color that trumps it on a hatch is emerald green IMO.

[slow99]

Damn. That car is beautiful, congrats!

[Baba Ganoush]

Beautiful car man! I love seeing them in mint condition, reminds me of my first mustang purchase and how much I used to love those cars.

Agreed. My first mustang was a '92 deep emerald green hatch. There's one I saw on craigslist, and it is the one combination that would doom me to buy another fox.

Damn that's a nice looking fox
