Which 2 cars would yall like to see me fix up first? [Pics]



I lost interested in the past couple years but I wanna finish my cars.
I just finished my garage floor (painted a black/white checkerboard floor).
Clearcoat just dried 72 hours so I'm gonna go ahead and start moving my tools and all back in.
i have room for 2 cars, maybe 3 but i'll settle for 2. so I wanna drive 2 cars in there.

My plan is to paint them and have some body mods that makes them unique.
or atleast the parts are unique to me, they arent too popular.

so anyways, I'm not going after the fastest cars with the most rwhp.


i know theres alot of 94-98s out there. so i kinda figured it'd be cool to fix the fox up
since its getting the rare 82gt 3piece wing, and i'm putting 18 fr500s on it.

the 97gt is basically gonna look alot like 95riosnakes red cobra..since he also has svo skirts/cobra wing/hood.



87 gt 5.0 5spd
just finished a 5 lug swap, putting an extra set of fr500s i have on it..
just put a 79-82 GT 3-piece wing on it
my plan is to maybe paint it atomic orange but not sure. just dont wanna keep the calypso green.
things i have left to do on it is to get a new bolt-on aftermarket hood.
i had a pin-on cowl hood and it was too flemsy for me so i sold it.
i currently keep it in my garage so it doesnt get rained on.
I also plan to do a t-top conversion (i'm good at t-top conversions, been paid to do it)
interior is in the middle of a black conversion, 5/10 rating, has good seats and new black carpet.
engine is 9/10 rating. mostly stock except for bbk headers, o/r h-pipe kenny brown strut tower brace.
the whole 5 lug swap is from a 95gt, complete rear-end axle with disc brakes and drilled rotors all around.
the look on this car will be the 5lug rims/82GT wing/hood.


97 gt 4.6 5spd
i just sold the chrome 95 cobra r rims off it last week for 300. good enough for me.
i'm not looking to get some polished rims or black. tired of how chrome flakes plus i'm getting to where i dont care for chrome.
i have a pair of Roush side skirts and SVO side skirts (side exhaust) to go on it. i love both of these skirts.
and i think that'll make the car a lil unique cuz i dont see them often.
i have the cowl hood on it and its staying. it use to be on my 94 v6 and i just love the hood.
i have the authentic cobra wing on it.
i was thinking of panting this one some shade of blue.
interior is 10/10, all black
engine is 10/10 rating. has flowmasters, o/r h-pipe. the rest is a stock 4.6 as far as i know.
i lowered it quite a bit, car looks slammed on 17s.
the look on this car will be the cowl hood/cobra wing/roushORsvo skirts/side pipes.


67 coupe 306 5spd (95gt drivetrain)
just got this around december 2010 i believe.
i primered it black. i dropped a 95gt drivetrain in it, 306 with trickflow and other mods, 5-speed.
engine and tranny are all bolted down. driveshaft bolted in.
I have the harness laid out through the car, just gotta hook it up and hook the computer up, tuck the wires in.
run the fuel lines and fuel pump. i have everything needed. i might have to make my own fuel lines.
i have a shelby wing to go on it and eleanor side skirts (side exhaust) but they dont have to be used on it.
hardest part for me is figuring out how to run the ignition and all that gauge stuff but i'll figure it out.
interior needs a new dash and all the trim painted and needs vinyl seat covers. for now i put new carpet in it and non-stock seats in the front.
2/10 rating on the interior.
engine itself is 10/10 rating after its hooked up. trickflow intake, bbk cai, msd. i drove the donor car and it was a beast.
i have flowmasters and bbk o/r x-pipe to go on it if they clear.
i also will have to update the steering on this (its loose) and hook up the drum brakes, previous owner unhooked everything.
if its affordable then i'll do a disc brake conversion.
i also plan on lowering it all around.
the look on this car will be the up-to-date rims, shelby wing, and its gonna be loud. most ppl might expect it to be quiet.


93 z28 355 automatic
lt1 bored .030 over so thats a 355 i believe. has the glasstek cowl hood, 'Freedom Design' wing (like a tall RS wing).
interior is 10/10. all charcoal grey, vinyl seats from a 98+ trans Am.
engine is 10/10 rating. was my recent daily driver before I got my 04 Cobra.
this car is done being modded. just wanna re-paint it.

The pics:
I didnt wanna post current pics of them because i dont want them to be judged my looks.

I'm a sucker for the fox bodies - I'd suggest a Cobra rear bumper and some 3.5in chrome tips, sell the spoiler and get a Saleen, and those cars look killer with Cobra R wheels

make the '93 your drag car

i had a saleen wing but it ended up being for a coupe. sold it. might get a hatch saleen wing.

if i put the z28 in my garage then i might do a t top conversion. i've done 2 conversions already.

Everytime I see a fox body it reminds me of the late 80's/early 90's Ford Escort. I vote the 97 GT and the camaro.

i say the 67 and go all out on it. custom twin turbo would be a nice treat. a buddy of mine had a 70 that looked like **** on the outside but had 1 hell of an engine. got kicked of the track first run. ran a 9.5 with no roll cage and no helmet....what a sleeper

i figured it out.

87 and 67 in the corners. then 97 by the garage door... then i'll move the 97 out when i'm done and put the z28 in. the 67 wont be moved for awhile so its going in a corner. got alot of work to do to it.
