Default Fox body LS, ZONES style

Should have a 80 fox body coupe dropped off tomorrow morning. Already has a AJE k member, Lakewood shocks/struts, sub frames, adjustable upper and lowers, all that good stuff. Cannot wait, it will be my 3rd mustang ever, but my first sbc powered.

It is no show car but will be fun to beat up on the locals at the track, all motor on pump gas and then spray it when I need it.

Will be my 2001 6.0 with a trex, heads milled, th400 Trans, 4500 converter, and the car has 3.73 gears for now. Will need some drag wheels, but has the 5 lug conversion already. Thinking 90% track, 10% street. Lol

Pics to come.

Been wanting to do one for a while and this was a deal I could not pass up while I had the opportunity. Wanted a 85/86 with the 4 eyes, but 80 works fine. Just ready to see what 700 less pounds does and a stalled auto compared to the 6 speed 3150 lbs.

I love the 4-eyed cars. Looked for one when I bought my car but couldn't find any worth buying. Cant wait to see how this turns out!

Thank you for the approval fellas, nice not to catch hell. I did not think old dirty bastard was right, because I knew someone would have claimed if, so, the dirty bastard just made sense.

I am really excited about this thing though, especially since most of the work is done.

That is just barely ugly enough to be a notch Mustang. But, I bet it will be a whooooole lotta fun.

Have a friend offering me the 85/86 nose that I want, so, let's see what happens from here. Have not seen doors on a stang sag like these. They are pretty bad.
