Haha. Thanks everyone. I will start a build thread for the 95. Ive already had the 92 lx for a bit and done some work to it. Had plans for a Hellion kit for the 92, but Hellion just released a kit for the 94/95 finally a few weeks ago. So im going to put it into this car. Ive owned a lot of these cars in my time, and before I got into the government work, I was a Master Ford and Master Toyota technician. I think this will be a pretty enjoyable build. Once I get home in june I will start my thread. :biggrin:

Yes Sir. Havent been home in almost a year. At least in CT I can drive home to do stuff here and there. Went home 3/31 and picked this one up. So I haven't owned it all that long. I will plan on keeping the stock block for now, I would like to see 450-475 on the stock block and a safe tune. Ive run close to 500 on a 91 LX with a Vortech and H/C/I. So I think I should beable to do that with this car. Once I recoupe some of the money from buying the turbo, I will plan on a 331. But that's all future. Just want to tidy it up for now with the parts ive ordered. Then if I don't get sent anywhere I can keep doing mods. Some parts just showed up, now I have to find a place to do my Build thread.

Welcome! Awesome cars. I'm digging that Fox.

So, since you have both an SN and fox; do you prefer to invest the money in the SN rather than the Fox? And if so, why?

Funny you ask, I do actually. The fox is super fun and small and I love the way I made it look. I put long tubes on it and a catless h with flows. Is very clean with only 69k miles. Red interior I always said no to, but I went with it and I don't mind it. But...interior is old and rear drums, steering isn't tight, four lugs not a lot of choices for brakes and wheels. I will invest more time and money into the SN because its already setup in more way than the fox. I do like pushrod motors than mod motors though. I just love distributor cars, I had a few mod motors cars. Don't really care for them. I don't like one more than the other though. Mod wise the SN I do. But driving either I get thrills from both and love them.
