Default Sad Day.

For those who did not know. I sold my Fox. Did not think I would miss it until I seen it leave my yard. Don't worry I have another project. I will be back at the track soon. Driving this.

Get a motor in that thing first, or it will be a close race against my truck. LOL

Congrats ( I guess)

Wiring I don't think will be that bad. Had to modify the tranny brace. Power steering and fuel sys. and radiator will be more challenging.

What motor and transmission did you put in there?

I didn't even get to see the new scoop on your old race car.

Congrats. That was a nice looking car with the black wheels, but DAMN look at it now. I know it hurt to let the fox go, but I think you made the right choice. BTW What size wheels are on the rear. If they are 15x10s what is the r/s?

Wife said I couldn't keep 2 race cars! One had to go and I've alway's liked the Cobra. Besides it has a 6 Pt. Cage in it! I am looking forward to seeing what it will do with the Big Block in it, with a few changes in it!

Next time you see my fox at the track it will be Chevy Powered big block and a glide.

The one in the Avatar is on it now 6" Cowl. The hood goes to the Windshield. The other hood in the signature would not close!
