Total GM guy here, but I'll always love the fox body. Best looking mustang in my opinion. Brings me back to my HS years, where me and my buddies use to have it out with the 3rd gen T/A's & Camaros....... great times!!
I have a 89 and a 91 and i have used the 91 pretty much as a my daily for several decades, one week will not go by where i almost get pushed out of the road by someone wanting to buy it or someone at the gas pump telling me how it was their first car or how it reminds them of something important in their life, i treasure that.
If I remember correctly, Ford was kinda pissed that people bought these R's and then proceeded to put them in garages like this....they wanted them to be raced (that's what the R stands for, race, not retail or resell). I believe that's why for the '95 Cobra R you could only buy one if you had a competition road or drag racing license.
the deal was you had to have a registered racing team to even buy one, regular people werent supposed to be able to purchase them because Gord wanted them to be raced, and not hoarded in a collection
Sometimes it hurts to see these cars never got their time out crushing tracks or backroads cause people wanted to keep miles down. I understand the preservation aspect and it would be sick to walk in the garage and there’s practically a brand new one waiting. but like some people just get to caught up on numbers
I bought #288 of 300 2000 Mustang Cobra R model new ($64K plus tax tag and title, so pretty much $70k out the door) and owned her for several years...at that time by far the best (and fastest) car I had ever owned. Really a phenomenally engineered car, you could do 177 mph in the car with one hand on the steering wheel and it was just dead solid. I once raced a very rare BMW 8 series 2 door car on the street from a stop light up to about 145mph and beat him pretty good. when he caught up to me he was waving me down and I expected he was going to give me the finger or something, but he asked me to pull over and he said what is that? I explained to him what it was and he said okay that explains how you beat me, he said he was shocked when I walked away from him and just kept pulling him past 125mph. He said I was the first Mustang that he wasn't able to embarrass. i told him I had owned two BMW 318/20's and i knew what his car was when he pulled up next to me and seemed to want to go, most people didn't know what a 2000 Cobra R was so I assumed he didn't either. Ford had the engine rated at 390 H.P. but dyno runs of the day had it rated at closer to 435 BHP. p.s. I now own a 2019 Ferrari 488 spider (677 BHP, 206 MPH).
Those cars really had an incredible engine. Probably the most exotic of all the modular engines beyond the Ford GT. It made roughly the same power as the supercharged 4.6 they put in the 03/04 cobras.
My son has a '92 LX 5.0 that is completely factory stock, that he is currently rebuilding the front suspension and interior. It is in really in good shape for it's age, motor runs great, it has the auto trans that still shifts good. Hoping he can get it fixed soon so he can come out to the cruise ins with me and my '73 Mach 1.
Hes a lucky son,these are really fun cars to be treasured and enjoyed,too many of them ended up in the pull a part from people beating on them day and night,i cringe when i see someone cutting these up to be a race car or what not,its like "dude they dont make these anymore and haven't for decades!!" lol There are several things you have to do to these cars that is a very worthwhile thing like replacing the alternator with a mid 90s Mustang (like a 96) , the alternator that came on these was useless,conversion to electric fan,one of the best things i ever did and replacing the starter with a 92 Mustang on up (mini starter) the original starters are boat anchors and a few other things that you can do, besides that i like them stock, no need for those cold air intakes either, the stock box works fine, no need for underdrive pulleys or MSD boxes or anything like that,money down the toilet.
The Cobra R spec engine specification was also used in the Australian 1992 Ford Falcon EB GT. 262-264 HP net on the Aston Martin Tickford engine dyno. Watson's supplied the Japanese built Showa GT40 intake and the same Build spec as the Cobra R's motor. The engine is a delight, even in a heavier Australian four door Falcon. Great to see David again. I remember the UTG/ Stickman/RevEvan interview on the 87 13.5 second Fox Mustangs. David, he had great stuff.
I'm not a big fan of mustangs because everyone has one. Felt like that for most my life. That because my dad was into falcon in his blood since 65' and give to me the drive to drive some else then mustang Ford power. I own a 98 for 22 yrs now so do have one . But love for falcon is soo strong. Seen first ba on speed channel I'm like wtf is that with bird n Ford badge racing eating cars . Saw first barra at Ford 100th love for one never stop. Enjoy those late model falcons From your us falcon owner 65 4door (like you lol 🤣) built 200 tri carb waiting to go in ..
I love to brag about the most powerful 302w from the factory (sort of), sitting on my back lawn. All Tickford tweaked 220kw (295HP) of it. The last of the Windsor's was also the most powerful 5.0 pushrod made. To think the new 5.0 Darkhorse Mustang is going to have 500hp is just ridiculous, and un-imaginable back when mine came out in 2001 !!
I met a couple in Albuquerque that had one of the lawsuit 7 1993 cobra R’s and a 1995. True car people and glad I was able to see their driver cars first hand.
omg seeing all those pristine horsies was just awesome. i cant really think of a proper term that explains my feelings of watching this. this reminded me of my days as a young adult in my 20s. those cars were, and still are awesome and beautiful.
What an incredible collection! How in the world do you keep a car pristine like that? Particularly rubber components, seals, bushings, hoses etc... I understand climate control is huge factor but it would seem that they would still have to undergo a huge amount of maintenance to keep them fresh. I've always wondered about this.
At 30 Years all the rubber and cork fluid seals would need to be refreshed before vintage racing, along with brake linings, tires, shocks, and rubber suspension parts.
I remember seeing my first 1993 Cobra R. It was at a Ford show in Columbus Ohio in about 1994 ish, I was 13-14 years old and in love with Fox body mustangs by this point. Seeing it under fluorescent lights in that Vibrant red paint, black wheels with no backseat..i just loved it, it was actually for sale for $55,000 at the time which was a boatload for any mustang but it looked like it was worth every penny.
I had the opportunity to work on a cobra that had no more then 10 miles on it came to the shop to get running still had all the pre delivery plastics all over window sticker still on. New fuel tank and a battery and it fired right up. It was pretty cool
The fox body will always have a special place in my heart. My first car was a two toned orange and black 87 mustang gt 5 speed with t tops. Still to this day the last time a mustang had t tops
I have a 1986 lx foxbody 5.0 5 speed , 100000 miles now, it has T Tops and I love driving it, had 60 thousand on it when my son give it to me 16 years ago, even though it's not cherry people won't stop trying to buy it mainly the T Tops, you have a great day .
When I was in Ford in the 90s we had a Cobra come off the truck, it was not to be started or run through PDI, we pushed it up to the service drive and the customer came and got it with a roll back, stickers, seat covers and all, 4 miles or so on it
My favorite years. I've owned a 64 1/2 6 cylinder. My wife wanted it :D and my '92 GT fastback. I spent 36k in the car in 4 years and turned it into a scca track day car that was also a daily driver. It was stolen from my work in 2000. Haven't heard a whisper about it since then.
I own 1993 street model 428... it has the non-material-added intake (and there's a story about Roush and Ford on that). Bob Lyons for a while in as early as '93 I believe setup the SVT Cobra Owner's Association out of New Jersey. I have the publications from that and they go into extensive detail. However, I did NOT know there were "7 '93 Cobras" :) Way to go guys! Thank you for awesome content!
Nice to see you again Evan. You probably remember my Mike's Mustangs 88LX hatch at etown(which I just put back together) Great to see Joe Amato's prototype. I still have photos of that car at the track.
I own a mustang that I believe is #1 of five. Ronnie Sox little boss addition. Built by shotgun industries and was in all the ford mags as the shotgun blast. I would love to show it if you would like to see it. It’s a nice piece of history. They say it is lost and one sold at mecum years ago. That car was red and is not the #1 that they claim it to be. I own the original #1. It has less than seven thousand miles and all original parts and tires.
That's amazing,there are so many variations out there that even a seasoned person hasn't heard of, pretty much when it comes to about any iconic car,there is a Corvette out there that they made like 2 of,one was in a museum and the other was owned by some guy in the middle east last i read but that was like 20 years ago.
One thing that wasn’t mentioned in lawsuit story because of the time difference some western dealers were late getting orders in ! I was working at a dealer in Scottsdale (Lou Grubb Ford) we were kind of slighted but got part of our order did make it,I remember our GM was quite pissed off over that!
@@lucascady4992 I didn't get one till I was 26, and it was a well worn 10 year old '82 GT. Then was an '84 Capri RS 5.0, then the '92, and now I have an '88 GT convertible which I painted white because Vanilla Ice. It was metallic red with orange stripes in the moldings, like the hatchback shown in the video. It's pretty ratty looking now, and needs a quarter panel, but would probably make it across the country with no BS. Explorer heads and intake, and pretty much every other mod. Stock cam though.
I'll go ahead and tell you a friend of mine back in high school ('90) had an '87 trooper interceptor mustang that was pretty much red eye. He's out ran that mustang model, the Chevy cyclone, and the LT1 Corvette when they came out. Blew the doors right off all of them.
I had a chance to buy one of those at Romeo Ford in Michigan back in 1999. They had one on the showroom floor and were asking 45k for it. That was a lot of money back then but man what a beautiful car it was! Had less than 100 miles on it. (If I remember correctly) If I had only known lol. Great video Evan!
I’m not a late model mustang fan. But I recently saw a video with a green notchback in excellent condition, and now this with a great story. I just may become a late model mustang fan after all. ( albeit a picky one) I can’t be allowed to buy #103. I would drive it 😳 (not that I could afford it)
I owned #58 1993 Cobra R for a number of years and I did club race it, like it was built for. Later it became too value able so I sold it for what I paid for it. It has 2200 miles on it when I bought it and 6600 when I sold it with 95% on track miles!
Ford had another lawsuit against the 1999 Cobra which resulted in Ford recalling 5,300 1999 SVT Mustang Cobras after admitting the vehicle's engine did not produce its advertised 320 horsepower.
In 1995 I was sitting at a salesman's desk and on it was a small SVT calender. I was flipping thru, and one of the months featured a breakdown of 93' Cobra production by color. Listed were the regular teal, black & red, but also a color called Vibrant Red, and next to it was a 1. I've been told over the years that it was a misprint, and that car doesn't exist. So...the question....was there truly 1 1993 Cobra painted Vibrant Red? awesome collection BTW...🙂
don't know, but even that desk calender would be worth something...I have an old Mercury Capri dealer brochure mentioning an ASC McLaren option and a few Star Trek posters that were tossed out having the wrong release date.
If there was only 1 it must have been mine. I owned a Vibrant Red, 93 Cobra. And, yes. I have the pics go prove it. I've never heard anything about there only being 1 made in that color.
Thanks for thinking the time . Thanks that car collector for saving history. I love the 2000 r review of his car un dealer perp that is cool just like the foxes
There was a guy in Shelby Township area (suburban Detroit) that had a 93R with the crayon marks still on it just like yours. I remember seeing it in the road and couple shows. Cool rare cars!
I had a 93 Lincoln MK 8 that had the engine that went into the Cobra the following year in 94. In the Lincoln it put out around 295 horsepower. Fun car!
I dont understand that but i guess back then if you wanted one of these you were just gonna have it hell or high water, i can see this for a undelivered Ferrari but a Mustang?
@@ShizawnSanders I believe they were discussing the 93 cobra R lawsuit for the 7 undelivered Mustangs that happened in 93 (he mentions in the video it was a "quick" lawsuit) ,is there another lawsuit for the 99s?
@@dntlss yes. The car didn't make its claimed horsepower and they spent so much time fixing the issue there was no 2000 Cobra because of it. Embarrassing. A time where a base $22k Z28 would wipe the floor with Fords best car even with the fix.
Another GM guy here but what a Gorgeous collection! Those Cobra & Cobra R's are Super Cool! Can't beat the foxes light chassis & 8.8 rearend factory combo👍😎
6:39 you're telling me that's a prototype notchback cobra and you're not going to mention anymore or talk about it? Go back and please give us some more information on it! Great video but you can't just glance over something like that.lol
It's funny that the 94/95 GT got the CobraR Tribar wheels (optionally). ...it's actually one of my favorite factory Mustang wheels. ...but not in the black/chome CobraR treatment.
Fantastic collection there I really liked the Goodyear eagle tyres back in the day I think I would buy them now if I could I do remember the saleen car doing a massive takeoff skid on tv some time A red one and that has always stuck in my mind 👍👍👍
If I remember correctly, Thunderbird lower A arms could give a Fox Mustang negative camber without the aftermarket strut plates due to their increased length over the Mustang's
They really could write a book about all the interchanging that goes on with all these cars,something about the aluminum driveshaft in certain Ford van fitting the 87 to 93 Mustang, a electric fan from a Taurus and the rear brakes from a T bird and the list goes on and on
I got to see #25 in person at a car show in Arkansas. Cool old fella. Had to original tires with the original air in them and he actually drove it home
Stunning collection although I wish people would drive these cars more like all right not daily, but just locked away sitting dormant can’t be good for these cars. Then again, preserving history is important amazing collection and I get it just pains me to not see them driven.
I love my Foxbody Mustangs! I love that awesome collection! But, I also love to DRIVE my Mustangs. Looking at them stacked in a museum....Zzzzzz I just don't get collecting ultra low mileage cars.
I bought a bloody 1989 falcon EA in Australia at the time with an SVO pack that took the total price of the car to 40,000au! If only I knew I could buy a mustang like that probably cost the same money too!
A buddy of mine has a 92 black cobra prototype. Marti report included. B&J AUTO SALES Morganton, NC. Had a lot of fun back in the day going from 1st gear rolls in the foxes. Read a lot of Evans articles in MM&FF.. I preferred the strip down lxz
I'm not a big fan of Mustangs anymore but I owned an 93 roughly around 2000-2002 and it had rear lockers , a big came , NOS , and for a short time twister heads . Unfortunately if the roads were wet I couldn't keep it out of the ditches , metaphorically speaking , so I got rid of it . I also did put it at a high speed on the interstate once but I won't say here on the internet . I do remember some models like : lightning SVT Cobras , Saleen , and I believe there was one called a Rousch but after the 93 I didn't care for them anymore .
When Steeda did this same mods on 92’s they rated them at 270. Which is far more accurate. To the right of the R, the exact color of my first GT -‘d 89, same stripe package. Amazing to see, but I traded it for a teal 93. I drove it, it did not sit. Bought it with 26,000 on April 1st 95, and when I traded it in July of 98 it had just turned 90,000. Some fool painted it black, or so the CARFAX said. Good memories.
Very very cool, I bought brand new an 1989 LX Hatch 5.0 5SPD and it was the same color sort of but it was called Blue metallic, I loved the 89 LX as it was first year the LX's had the GT interior and the very last year the FOX had tilt wheel. Yeah, I never should got rid of it, got into Harleys for the next 20 years. Also 25th anniversary year for Mustangs was 1989 and they had some added anniversary things done to them. While I like these later Fox bodies, I would have a hard time not having the tilt wheel, heck got one in my E350. But heck yeah, I would of course take one of these very limited versions any day. All Foxes are getting to hard to find in original, un molested condition, way too many guys raced and ruined some really nice cars, but it was their choice as the owners to do what they wanted. If I had the money, hit the lottery, I would not even come close to a new Ford dealer to buy a new Mustang, I'd find a nice 1989 LX hatch or sedan in nice shape, low miles.......dreaming I guess?
These were good times for Ford, and I was lucky enough to grow up with Dad as a Ford Executive. He was a Ford VP when I was in Jr. High. You mentioned Ford made cars for Ford Executives and I can attest this was true throughout the 70's, 80's and 90's. Two new cars every year, and it didn't seem to matter what we got, *something magical happened to cars that said Ford VP on the build sheet.* Mom always had Country Squire Wagon, Grand Marquis, or Town Car which may sound boring but even during the smog laden 70's Mom's car always had duel exhaust, rarely seen aluminum wheels, massive front and rear sway-bars, and would smoke the tires (both rear tires) the entire way down the road. Dad would of course diversify from the latest Lincoln Mark XX to the 1979 Mustang Turbo Pace Car (that I learned to drive in), to SVT or GT mustangs to a couple imports like the XR4Ti and the American 'wanna-be' Cosworth Sierra (which had a weak V6 in the states). I truly enjoyed the first SHO Taurus in California. Often, we would literally pick up our cars from the LA auto show. The "all new" 1983 Thunderbird was the first in California as well. Good times, thanks for the memories.
Unless people ventured out of the United States back in the 80s or were lucky like you having your Dad being high up in the company most people will never know how much fun the true XR4TI's were,i grew up overseas because my dad was in the oil business, here a little bit, there a little bit, all over the place,lol, and when those cars came out they were the shit back then, my sister had the very base model, probably 20 (twenty,lol) horsepower and man that was a cool car for the time, very revolutionary and of course the big dogs around town had the fully loaded ones, man those things were fast. The SHO was another freaking awesome car so were the Late 80s and 90s T birds,man you brought back an lot of good memories,i actually have 2 of these Mustangs and a 95 Thunderbird and a few more,none of them pristine but they are all there for the most part, im one of those fools that falls in love with cars and keeps them,ha ha ha
@@dntlss I was blessed indeed! RIP Dad. So here is the irony of the situation. This entire time from shortly after I got my license through the 90's I owned an imported 1976 Capri which I turned road/drag race demon. Built in Cologne Germany my Capri was modified with all the best hot rod goodies 4bbl Holley, Offy intake, massive aluminum gear drive cam, ported heads, headers, Mono leaf, Bilstein shocks, homemade traction bars, etc etc. I loved Ford of Europe and the very rare (in the USA) 1976 1977 (Mercury) Ford Capri. I made mine LOOK exactly like a European 1980-83 Ford 3.0S Capri right down to the 3.0S decals and emblems, to the correct Recaro seats and upholstered in the latest SVT fabric including headliner. Again, thanks Dad. Note: You can't get 3.0 S side stripes here unless you "know someone". So now imagine my 1976 V6 Capri blowing the doors off anything and everything Dad brought home. My car was fast and would turn low 13's at Carlsbad with road racing slicks and mid 13's with the 5MPH bumpers removed on street tires. That sounds slow now, but in 1985 I could smoke Mustang GT's and IROC Camaro's that were stock. His first year/first in Ca SHO was the only car that wasn't in my rear-view mirror by the 1/8 mile. (I think his SHO had some VP magic done to it as well, it was fun!) Often, I would wake up on the weekend and my car was nowhere to be found, nor was Dad. He would show up a few hours later saying he was at the local Lincoln Mercury dealer giving people rides. "That thing is ferocious in first gear" his words not mine. "I know Dad, I built it". So now I'm old and I want a pristine Capri to put a 600+hp Honda K swap in, (Dad rolls over in his grave), but they don't seem to exist here in the states. On your side of the pond, they are much more common since they were produced through 1986 and sold through 1989.
I'll probably never owned one before I die 🎲🎲 God has gave me a strong back hopefully one more notch back before I leave this great beautiful collection. Right when he popped the hood I'm at 93 just couldn't take it no more beautiful thank you
I grew up in the 50s and 60s, so my favorite Mustangs are the 69 and 70. I even had a 1970, 428, Cobra Jet. That Shaker hood was awesome. I hated when the 74 IIs came out, but I bought one anyway...go figure. However, really never cared for the Fox bodied cars. They just don't look like Mustangs. Those right there look like they are powered by batteries. (no need to give me HP ratings) Glad you held on to them though.
In '91 I had an '89 gt convertible 5.0 with the manual transmission. I'm pretty sure it was the most fun that could be had with a bone stock late model American vehicle at the time.
I have the Fax paper work on this lawsuit and car #104, there was 15 cars ordered by Colorado dealer due to the fact there was no SVT dealers on the west coast and a dealer had to be a SVT Certified dealer to order one of these cars. Some of the people ordering a R did not want to be involved with the cost of the lawsuit causing them to lose the order. The other people involve followed thru and either received money back as stated or a car. These cars were produced in June, some of the last Fox body cars. I have copies if someone out there would like to look it over.
I did own a 1995 cobra #349 in Rio red W/ black cloth. They were essentially rebodied 1993 cobra R's, i really don't think the SN95 got it's own distinct platform until 1996 but i could be talking out my a$$, i know the styling change happened in 1994 but driving a 93 and 95 cobra back to back they feel like the same car even though visually they're different.
I have a 1984 Mustang GT Turbo, 2.3L Lima w a hairdryer...Canadian Build, w T-Tops, one of probably 12, of the 2,000 1984 GT T's made. It has the LA3 Conversion and top-mount air intercooler. Pretty cool odball, same intercooler as the SVO and 87-88 Thunderbird Turbo Coupe
I am beginning to think production numbers were much higher on those gt turbos. I’ve personally seen 4 in the small city I live in and I’ve seen at least 6 more in various other places. I’ve got the hood and front bumper cover off a totaled white one on my 83 convertible. I’ll own one of those turbos eventually.
buying a car with absolutely no intention of driving it is pure silliness to me. what the hell is the point? you could have a model and get the same experience. It's goofy.
The thing I've always had against Mustangs is they always seem to lack that little bit of features that would make them great as well as it seeming like everybody has one.
Man ford engineers are just so dang smart an geniuses!! From they way made the stang sound better an sell better than any other car an how they made the ford truck have more torque an towing performance than all its competitors!! Lol.
So let me get this straight, the owner of that red Cobra R, was personally involved in the Courtesy Ford law suit, got his car he ordered, yet never even had PDI done on the car and never driven?!?! What's the point of that?
You have the best looking Fox body, right behind that cobra R, although nice, but no fix body even compares to the 79 pace car fix body, surprise you didn’t say anything about it.
Total GM guy here, but I'll always love the fox body. Best looking mustang in my opinion. Brings me back to my HS years, where me and my buddies use to have it out with the 3rd gen T/A's & Camaros....... great times!!
Best looking mustang?? It looks like a large Escort 😂
"Cobra R was built for road racing"
As it turns out, it was built to sit in a warehouse
It's a damn shame that it's sitting in a warehouse isn't it?
What a waste.
Like ANY super special limited edition sports cars.
@@darksu6947 his choice his car i guess. It's unreplacable! Valued over $100k if not more.
And this being car #103, Ford got sued and was forced to build this car... to never be driven.
I have a 89 and a 91 and i have used the 91 pretty much as a my daily for several decades, one week will not go by where i almost get pushed out of the road by someone wanting to buy it or someone at the gas pump telling me how it was their first car or how it reminds them of something important in their life, i treasure that.
If I remember correctly, Ford was kinda pissed that people bought these R's and then proceeded to put them in garages like this....they wanted them to be raced (that's what the R stands for, race, not retail or resell). I believe that's why for the '95 Cobra R you could only buy one if you had a competition road or drag racing license.
the deal was you had to have a registered racing team to even buy one, regular people werent supposed to be able to purchase them because Gord wanted them to be raced, and not hoarded in a collection
Correct, NHRA or a SCCA licence 👍🏁
Good point. Such a waste
Ford was right to be pissed. What a waste of of a car. All they're engineering sitting in a garage with 90 miles over 30 years.
Sometimes it hurts to see these cars never got their time out crushing tracks or backroads cause people wanted to keep miles down. I understand the preservation aspect and it would be sick to walk in the garage and there’s practically a brand new one waiting. but like some people just get to caught up on numbers
I bought #288 of 300 2000 Mustang Cobra R model new ($64K plus tax tag and title, so pretty much $70k out the door) and owned her for several years...at that time by far the best (and fastest) car I had ever owned. Really a phenomenally engineered car, you could do 177 mph in the car with one hand on the steering wheel and it was just dead solid. I once raced a very rare BMW 8 series 2 door car on the street from a stop light up to about 145mph and beat him pretty good. when he caught up to me he was waving me down and I expected he was going to give me the finger or something, but he asked me to pull over and he said what is that? I explained to him what it was and he said okay that explains how you beat me, he said he was shocked when I walked away from him and just kept pulling him past 125mph. He said I was the first Mustang that he wasn't able to embarrass. i told him I had owned two BMW 318/20's and i knew what his car was when he pulled up next to me and seemed to want to go, most people didn't know what a 2000 Cobra R was so I assumed he didn't either. Ford had the engine rated at 390 H.P. but dyno runs of the day had it rated at closer to 435 BHP. p.s. I now own a 2019 Ferrari 488 spider (677 BHP, 206 MPH).
Man ....I am jealous . But good for you and being able to experience all those rides.
Those cars really had an incredible engine. Probably the most exotic of all the modular engines beyond the Ford GT. It made roughly the same power as the supercharged 4.6 they put in the 03/04 cobras.
That must've been a heck of a ride. No A/C and no radio and that unique red-orange color.
Sorry to hear about your lapse of judgement on the Italian car, but ace story about whooping the 8 series though:)
I have been lucky enough to own all 3 5.0 cobras. 93 is my favorite by far. Teal is also my favorite color for 93. God bless Evan.💪🏼🇺🇸
My son has a '92 LX 5.0 that is completely factory stock, that he is currently rebuilding the front suspension and interior. It is in really in good shape for it's age, motor runs great, it has the auto trans that still shifts good. Hoping he can get it fixed soon so he can come out to the cruise ins with me and my '73 Mach 1.
Hes a lucky son,these are really fun cars to be treasured and enjoyed,too many of them ended up in the pull a part from people beating on them day and night,i cringe when i see someone cutting these up to be a race car or what not,its like "dude they dont make these anymore and haven't for decades!!" lol
There are several things you have to do to these cars that is a very worthwhile thing like replacing the alternator with a mid 90s Mustang (like a 96) , the alternator that came on these was useless,conversion to electric fan,one of the best things i ever did and replacing the starter with a 92 Mustang on up (mini starter) the original starters are boat anchors and a few other things that you can do, besides that i like them stock, no need for those cold air intakes either, the stock box works fine, no need for underdrive pulleys or MSD boxes or anything like that,money down the toilet.
The Cobra R spec engine specification was also used in the Australian 1992 Ford Falcon EB GT. 262-264 HP net on the Aston Martin Tickford engine dyno. Watson's supplied the Japanese built Showa GT40 intake and the same Build spec as the Cobra R's motor. The engine is a delight, even in a heavier Australian four door Falcon. Great to see David again. I remember the UTG/ Stickman/RevEvan interview on the 87 13.5 second Fox Mustangs. David, he had great stuff.
I didn’t know that, thanks.
I'm not a big fan of mustangs because everyone has one. Felt like that for most my life.
That because my dad was into falcon in his blood since 65' and give to me the drive to drive some else then mustang Ford power.
I own a 98 for 22 yrs now so do have one .
But love for falcon is soo strong.
Seen first ba on speed channel I'm like wtf is that with bird n Ford badge racing eating cars .
Saw first barra at Ford 100th love for one never stop.
Enjoy those late model falcons
From your us falcon owner
65 4door (like you lol 🤣) built 200 tri carb waiting to go in ..
@asteinmann and if you bought one n keep it.
Price was so cheap
I love to brag about the most powerful 302w from the factory (sort of), sitting on my back lawn. All Tickford tweaked 220kw (295HP) of it. The last of the Windsor's was also the most powerful 5.0 pushrod made. To think the new 5.0 Darkhorse Mustang is going to have 500hp is just ridiculous, and un-imaginable back when mine came out in 2001 !!
I WISH BACK IN THE DAY I BOUGHT A 93 R BUT I DO HAVE A 20 THOUSAND MILE ALL ORIGINAL VIBRANT RED 93 COBRA AND ITS NOT FOR SALE.
I met a couple in Albuquerque that had one of the lawsuit 7 1993 cobra R’s and a 1995. True car people and glad I was able to see their driver cars first hand.
Do they drive those Cobras or are those show cars?
omg seeing all those pristine horsies was just awesome. i cant really think of a proper term that explains my feelings of watching this. this reminded me of my days as a young adult in my 20s. those cars were, and still are awesome and beautiful.
What an incredible collection! How in the world do you keep a car pristine like that? Particularly rubber components, seals, bushings, hoses etc... I understand climate control is huge factor but it would seem that they would still have to undergo a huge amount of maintenance to keep them fresh. I've always wondered about this.
Most damage is done by heat and UV.
At 30 Years all the rubber and cork fluid seals would need to be refreshed before vintage racing, along with brake linings, tires, shocks, and rubber suspension parts.
stupid collection. no racing history just stupid history
BY never driving them, and always keeping them in an environment controlled garage. Every enthusiast wishes they had the resources to do that.
Beware of the ionizers or O3 machines. Can mess up plastics and rubbers
I remember seeing my first 1993 Cobra R. It was at a Ford show in Columbus Ohio in about 1994 ish, I was 13-14 years old and in love with Fox body mustangs by this point. Seeing it under fluorescent lights in that Vibrant red paint, black wheels with no backseat..i just loved it, it was actually for sale for $55,000 at the time which was a boatload for any mustang but it looked like it was worth every penny.
Ohio representing! 👍
It's worth bout $140k now+ .. get a new Mustang GT 5.0L while ya can. Will be all electrics in few yrs p/govt mandates 😞
@@Davido50 the government can be changed
Great interview. I was in college at the time, so I was only driving a lowly 91 5.0 coupe, but always lusted for that Teal Cobra or Cobra R
I had the opportunity to work on a cobra that had no more then 10 miles on it came to the shop to get running still had all the pre delivery plastics all over window sticker still on. New fuel tank and a battery and it fired right up. It was pretty cool
The fox body will always have a special place in my heart. My first car was a two toned orange and black 87 mustang gt 5 speed with t tops. Still to this day the last time a mustang had t tops
I have a 1986 lx foxbody 5.0 5 speed , 100000 miles now, it has T Tops and I love driving it, had 60 thousand on it when my son give it to me 16 years ago, even though it's not cherry people won't stop trying to buy it mainly the T Tops, you have a great day .
When I was in Ford in the 90s we had a Cobra come off the truck, it was not to be started or run through PDI, we pushed it up to the service drive and the customer came and got it with a roll back, stickers, seat covers and all, 4 miles or so on it
My favorite years. I've owned a 64 1/2 6 cylinder. My wife wanted it :D and my '92 GT fastback. I spent 36k in the car in 4 years and turned it into a scca track day car that was also a daily driver. It was stolen from my work in 2000. Haven't heard a whisper about it since then.
I own 1993 street model 428... it has the non-material-added intake (and there's a story about Roush and Ford on that). Bob Lyons for a while in as early as '93 I believe setup the SVT Cobra Owner's Association out of New Jersey. I have the publications from that and they go into extensive detail. However, I did NOT know there were "7 '93 Cobras" :) Way to go guys! Thank you for awesome content!
107 not 7.
107 cobra R's to be specific. There was like 4000 regular cobras. He says it all in the video
Nice to see you again Evan. You probably remember my Mike's Mustangs 88LX hatch at etown(which I just put back together) Great to see Joe Amato's prototype. I still have photos of that car at the track.
Getting to see the Saleen really made my day! I own 90-172 in the exact same colors.
Gosh that teal cobra has been my dream car since I was a kid. I’m 38……. I still drool over that car 👏
My daily driver is a 93' Cobra, it's a blast to drive that baby to work and back!
I own a mustang that I believe is #1 of five. Ronnie Sox little boss addition. Built by shotgun industries and was in all the ford mags as the shotgun blast. I would love to show it if you would like to see it. It’s a nice piece of history. They say it is lost and one sold at mecum years ago. That car was red and is not the #1 that they claim it to be. I own the original #1. It has less than seven thousand miles and all original parts and tires.
That's amazing,there are so many variations out there that even a seasoned person hasn't heard of, pretty much when it comes to about any iconic car,there is a Corvette out there that they made like 2 of,one was in a museum and the other was owned by some guy in the middle east last i read but that was like 20 years ago.
One thing that wasn’t mentioned in lawsuit story because of the time difference some western dealers were late getting orders in ! I was working at a dealer in Scottsdale (Lou Grubb Ford) we were kind of slighted but got part of our order did make it,I remember our GM was quite pissed off over that!
My holy Grail Foxbody is a notch in dark green with the pony wheels!!
I had a '92 GT hatch in the dark green over argent.
@@DanEBoyd I had. 87GT, White with pony wheels, GT40 head's and intake, 3:73 gears... I was 18-19yrs Old!! Miss that one a lot
@@lucascady4992 I didn't get one till I was 26, and it was a well worn 10 year old '82 GT. Then was an '84 Capri RS 5.0, then the '92, and now I have an '88 GT convertible which I painted white because Vanilla Ice. It was metallic red with orange stripes in the moldings, like the hatchback shown in the video. It's pretty ratty looking now, and needs a quarter panel, but would probably make it across the country with no BS. Explorer heads and intake, and pretty much every other mod. Stock cam though.
Talk about a trip down memory lane. Love the video ! Keeping the legend and memory of the classic Fox body alive and well
I'll go ahead and tell you a friend of mine back in high school ('90) had an '87 trooper interceptor mustang that was pretty much red eye. He's out ran that mustang model, the Chevy cyclone, and the LT1 Corvette when they came out. Blew the doors right off all of them.
Dave's collection is impressive!
Impressive indeed. Also a complete waste of cars that were meant to be driven.
I had a chance to buy one of those at Romeo Ford in Michigan back in 1999. They had one on the showroom floor and were asking 45k for it. That was a lot of money back then but man what a beautiful car it was! Had less than 100 miles on it. (If I remember correctly) If I had only known lol. Great video Evan!
I had a chance to be the first man on the moon. Unfortunately I wasn't born yet. If I had only known.
@@dr.floridaman4805 Hindsight is always 20/20
I’m not a late model mustang fan.
But I recently saw a video with a green notchback in excellent condition, and now this with a great story.
I just may become a late model mustang fan after all. ( albeit a picky one)
I can’t be allowed to buy #103. I would drive it 😳
(not that I could afford it)
I owned #58 1993 Cobra R for a number of years and I did club race it, like it was built for. Later it became too value able so I sold it for what I paid for it. It has 2200 miles on it when I bought it and 6600 when I sold it with 95% on track miles!
Hey Jim, I still love it too!
Thank goodness at least one of them got some miles
A kid I went to highschool had a cobra not the cobra r. I thought the car was pretty damn cool back in 1997
VERY UNDERRATED LOL NOT 235HP MORE LIKE 260 270HP.
IAM VERY DEBATING ON SELLING MY 93 COBRA LOL I WISH I KNEW THE FUTURE AND WHERE THE VALUES WILL GO.
That R makes me very sad. Ford wanted racers to buy and race the cars. But collectors snatched them up instead.
I used to think the same thing but I’m glad a few have been preserved for history.
Simple solution: go buy your own and race it all YOU want!
Incredible collection
My dad was a Ford dealer in Houston in the 90s. He had a convertible black on black Mustang. Great memories
If this guy hits a tree, we’ll never find out where all the center caps went to his cars.
Ford had another lawsuit against the 1999 Cobra which resulted in Ford recalling 5,300 1999 SVT Mustang Cobras after admitting the vehicle's engine did not produce its advertised 320 horsepower.
They have always done shady shit
Trying to keep up with gm
I could hang out with these two, for days!
In 1995 I was sitting at a salesman's desk and on it was a small SVT calender. I was flipping thru, and one of the months featured a breakdown of 93' Cobra production by color. Listed were the regular teal, black & red, but also a color called Vibrant Red, and next to it was a 1. I've been told over the years that it was a misprint, and that car doesn't exist. So...the question....was there truly 1 1993 Cobra painted Vibrant Red? awesome collection BTW...🙂
don't know, but even that desk calender would be worth something...I have an old Mercury Capri dealer brochure mentioning an ASC McLaren option and a few Star Trek posters that were tossed out having the wrong release date.
If there was only 1 it must have been mine. I owned a Vibrant Red, 93 Cobra. And, yes. I have the pics go prove it. I've never heard anything about there only being 1 made in that color.
I remember seeing a Cobra in a metallic green on the showroom floor. I believe it was a 93. Could be faulty memory.
Thanks for thinking the time .
Thanks that car collector for saving history.
I love the 2000 r review of his car un dealer perp that is cool just like the foxes
Such a cool collection! Thanks Evan & Dave for sharing!
There was a guy in Shelby Township area (suburban Detroit) that had a 93R with the crayon marks still on it just like yours. I remember seeing it in the road and couple shows. Cool rare cars!
I had a 93 Lincoln MK 8 that had the engine that went into the Cobra the following year in 94. In the Lincoln it put out around 295 horsepower. Fun car!
Good thing it was Abe doing the camera work instead of me, I would have been looking all around instead of keeping the camera on Evan & Dave! LOL
Awesome video! I was unaware of the lawsuit history of the cobra r, then to see the price on the sticker.... very cool.
The 1999 Cobra lawsuit is pretty well known. Embarrassing really.
I dont understand that but i guess back then if you wanted one of these you were just gonna have it hell or high water, i can see this for a undelivered Ferrari but a Mustang?
@@ShizawnSanders I believe they were discussing the 93 cobra R lawsuit for the 7 undelivered Mustangs that happened in 93 (he mentions in the video it was a "quick" lawsuit) ,is there another lawsuit for the 99s?
@@dntlss yes. The car didn't make its claimed horsepower and they spent so much time fixing the issue there was no 2000 Cobra because of it. Embarrassing. A time where a base $22k Z28 would wipe the floor with Fords best car even with the fix.
I'll have to look at the upper intake I grabbed 5+ years ago for my 88 and see if it's an early or late manifold.
Another GM guy here but what a Gorgeous collection! Those Cobra & Cobra R's are Super Cool! Can't beat the foxes light chassis & 8.8 rearend factory combo👍😎
Great interview.
Awesome video and amazing collection.
Loved the comments on the cobras. Always liked the fox body Mustang. One of my 1st. cars was a 64 1/2 nice car.
6:39 you're telling me that's a prototype notchback cobra and you're not going to mention anymore or talk about it? Go back and please give us some more information on it! Great video but you can't just glance over something like that.lol
The fox body will always be one of my favorites
It's funny that the 94/95 GT got the CobraR Tribar wheels (optionally). ...it's actually one of my favorite factory Mustang wheels. ...but not in the black/chome CobraR treatment.
Fox body mustang are my favorite cars. Nothing like a the sound of a supercharged 5.0l. To this day if I hear one the hair on my arms stand on end.
Very cool stuff. My buddy had a teal Cobra. Awesome car.
Fantastic collection there
I really liked the Goodyear eagle tyres back in the day
I think I would buy them now if I could
I do remember the saleen car doing a massive takeoff skid on tv some time
A red one and that has always stuck in my mind 👍👍👍
Excellent work as usual Evan..
If I remember correctly, Thunderbird lower A arms could give a Fox Mustang negative camber without the aftermarket strut plates due to their increased length over the Mustang's
They really could write a book about all the interchanging that goes on with all these cars,something about the aluminum driveshaft in certain Ford van fitting the 87 to 93 Mustang, a electric fan from a Taurus and the rear brakes from a T bird and the list goes on and on
I got to see #25 in person at a car show in Arkansas. Cool old fella. Had to original tires with the original air in them and he actually drove it home
The window sticker on my 93 teal cobra.
The clear coat paint was an option
Back in the day had a friend with a 93 Cobra R,ran it like it was stolen.Didnt appreciate what it was at the time.Dont know what happened to it.
A friend of had a SVO Mustang 🤔 it had a four cylinder turbocharged engine in it and handled fantastic. It’s in his shed now. Cool car
Stunning collection although I wish people would drive these cars more like all right not daily, but just locked away sitting dormant can’t be good for these cars. Then again, preserving history is important amazing collection and I get it just pains me to not see them driven.
I love my Foxbody Mustangs!
I love that awesome collection!
But, I also love to DRIVE my Mustangs.
Looking at them stacked in a museum....Zzzzzz
I just don't get collecting ultra low mileage cars.
I bought a bloody 1989 falcon EA in Australia at the time with an SVO pack that took the total price of the car to 40,000au! If only I knew I could buy a mustang like that probably cost the same money too!
A buddy of mine has a 92 black cobra prototype. Marti report included. B&J AUTO SALES Morganton, NC. Had a lot of fun back in the day going from 1st gear rolls in the foxes. Read a lot of Evans articles in MM&FF.. I preferred the strip down lxz
I may have to look his dealership up, I am moving to Morganton in the spring.
I'm not a big fan of Mustangs anymore but I owned an 93 roughly around 2000-2002 and it had rear lockers , a big came , NOS , and for a short time twister heads . Unfortunately if the roads were wet I couldn't keep it out of the ditches , metaphorically speaking , so I got rid of it . I also did put it at a high speed on the interstate once but I won't say here on the internet . I do remember some models like : lightning SVT Cobras , Saleen , and I believe there was one called a Rousch but after the 93 I didn't care for them anymore .
I remember at this time the Mustang was known for going fast in a straight line and the Camaro was known for its better handling.
Just incredible. Must be one of the finest Ford collections in the world.
When Steeda did this same mods on 92’s they rated them at 270. Which is far more accurate. To the right of the R, the exact color of my first GT -‘d 89, same stripe package. Amazing to see, but I traded it for a teal 93. I drove it, it did not sit. Bought it with 26,000 on April 1st 95, and when I traded it in July of 98 it had just turned 90,000. Some fool painted it black, or so the CARFAX said. Good memories.
What a magnificent collection 😍
Very very cool, I bought brand new an 1989 LX Hatch 5.0 5SPD and it was the same color sort of but it was called Blue metallic, I loved the 89 LX as it was first year the LX's had the GT interior and the very last year the FOX had tilt wheel. Yeah, I never should got rid of it, got into Harleys for the next 20 years. Also 25th anniversary year for Mustangs was 1989 and they had some added anniversary things done to them. While I like these later Fox bodies, I would have a hard time not having the tilt wheel, heck got one in my E350. But heck yeah, I would of course take one of these very limited versions any day. All Foxes are getting to hard to find in original, un molested condition, way too many guys raced and ruined some really nice cars, but it was their choice as the owners to do what they wanted. If I had the money, hit the lottery, I would not even come close to a new Ford dealer to buy a new Mustang, I'd find a nice 1989 LX hatch or sedan in nice shape, low miles.......dreaming I guess?
Bittersweet collection. I can appreciate the appreciation, but I'd rather see them on the road.
These were good times for Ford, and I was lucky enough to grow up with Dad as a Ford Executive. He was a Ford VP when I was in Jr. High.
You mentioned Ford made cars for Ford Executives and I can attest this was true throughout the 70's, 80's and 90's.
Two new cars every year, and it didn't seem to matter what we got, *something magical happened to cars that said Ford VP on the build sheet.* Mom always had Country Squire Wagon, Grand Marquis, or Town Car which may sound boring but even during the smog laden 70's Mom's car always had duel exhaust, rarely seen aluminum wheels, massive front and rear sway-bars, and would smoke the tires (both rear tires) the entire way down the road. Dad would of course diversify from the latest Lincoln Mark XX to the 1979 Mustang Turbo Pace Car (that I learned to drive in), to SVT or GT mustangs to a couple imports like the XR4Ti and the American 'wanna-be' Cosworth Sierra (which had a weak V6 in the states). I truly enjoyed the first SHO Taurus in California. Often, we would literally pick up our cars from the LA auto show. The "all new" 1983 Thunderbird was the first in California as well.
Good times, thanks for the memories.
Unless people ventured out of the United States back in the 80s or were lucky like you having your Dad being high up in the company most people will never know how much fun the true XR4TI's were,i grew up overseas because my dad was in the oil business, here a little bit, there a little bit, all over the place,lol, and when those cars came out they were the shit back then, my sister had the very base model, probably 20 (twenty,lol) horsepower and man that was a cool car for the time, very revolutionary and of course the big dogs around town had the fully loaded ones, man those things were fast.
The SHO was another freaking awesome car so were the Late 80s and 90s T birds,man you brought back an lot of good memories,i actually have 2 of these Mustangs and a 95 Thunderbird and a few more,none of them pristine but they are all there for the most part, im one of those fools that falls in love with cars and keeps them,ha ha ha
@@dntlss I was blessed indeed! RIP Dad. So here is the irony of the situation. This entire time from shortly after I got my license through the 90's I owned an imported 1976 Capri which I turned road/drag race demon. Built in Cologne Germany my Capri was modified with all the best hot rod goodies 4bbl Holley, Offy intake, massive aluminum gear drive cam, ported heads, headers, Mono leaf, Bilstein shocks, homemade traction bars, etc etc. I loved Ford of Europe and the very rare (in the USA) 1976 1977 (Mercury) Ford Capri. I made mine LOOK exactly like a European 1980-83 Ford 3.0S Capri right down to the 3.0S decals and emblems, to the correct Recaro seats and upholstered in the latest SVT fabric including headliner. Again, thanks Dad. Note: You can't get 3.0 S side stripes here unless you "know someone".
So now imagine my 1976 V6 Capri blowing the doors off anything and everything Dad brought home. My car was fast and would turn low 13's at Carlsbad with road racing slicks and mid 13's with the 5MPH bumpers removed on street tires. That sounds slow now, but in 1985 I could smoke Mustang GT's and IROC Camaro's that were stock.
His first year/first in Ca SHO was the only car that wasn't in my rear-view mirror by the 1/8 mile. (I think his SHO had some VP magic done to it as well, it was fun!)
Often, I would wake up on the weekend and my car was nowhere to be found, nor was Dad. He would show up a few hours later saying he was at the local Lincoln Mercury dealer giving people rides.
"That thing is ferocious in first gear" his words not mine. "I know Dad, I built it".
So now I'm old and I want a pristine Capri to put a 600+hp Honda K swap in, (Dad rolls over in his grave), but they don't seem to exist here in the states.
On your side of the pond, they are much more common since they were produced through 1986 and sold through 1989.
I'll probably never owned one before I die 🎲🎲 God has gave me a strong back hopefully one more notch back before I leave this great beautiful collection. Right when he popped the hood I'm at 93 just couldn't take it no more beautiful thank you
I’ve got so much respect for Tulsi, she so bright and unpretentious. And she calls it like she see’s it.
Saw one out here in SoCal, but the dealer mark up was crazy.
Well that hasn't changed much in 30 years then !!
I grew up in the 50s and 60s, so my favorite Mustangs are the 69 and 70. I even had a 1970, 428, Cobra Jet. That Shaker hood was awesome. I hated when the 74 IIs came out, but I bought one anyway...go figure. However, really never cared for the Fox bodied cars. They just don't look like Mustangs. Those right there look like they are powered by batteries. (no need to give me HP ratings) Glad you held on to them though.
In '91 I had an '89 gt convertible 5.0 with the manual transmission. I'm pretty sure it was the most fun that could be had with a bone stock late model American vehicle at the time.
What a beautiful collection. Still have my 92 LX.
I have the Fax paper work on this lawsuit and car #104, there was 15 cars ordered by Colorado dealer due to the fact there was no SVT dealers on the west coast and a dealer had to be a SVT Certified dealer to order one of these cars. Some of the people ordering a R did not want to be involved with the cost of the lawsuit causing them to lose the order. The other people involve followed thru and either received money back as stated or a car. These cars were produced in June, some of the last Fox body cars. I have copies if someone out there would like to look it over.
Wow that's a lot of beautiful Mustang 🐎🐎🐎🐎
Great insights into Fox history, thank you!
I did own a 1995 cobra #349 in Rio red W/ black cloth. They were essentially rebodied 1993 cobra R's, i really don't think the SN95 got it's own distinct platform until 1996 but i could be talking out my a$$, i know the styling change happened in 1994 but driving a 93 and 95 cobra back to back they feel like the same car even though visually they're different.
They were also called the Fox 4 platform, with a stiffened chassis and thus heavier. The engine was very similar to the '93 in Cobra form !!
The '95 Cobra R was a 300hp 351, NOT a 302. Thanks for playing.
@@dr.hugog.hackenbush9443 The Std NON R version WAS a 302, so thanks for not reading what Josh and I were talking about !!
I had a chance to buy an R model for sticker back in 1994 at Don Reid Ford in Orlando Florida
Please do a Vid on the Prototype Cobra
Never realized the R had the tribar wheels… they look hideous on the sn95. But look great on the 93 R
All these were just sold at Berrett Jackson if I'm not mistaken. Might fine collection.
I have a 1984 Mustang GT Turbo, 2.3L Lima w a hairdryer...Canadian Build, w T-Tops, one of probably 12, of the 2,000 1984 GT T's made. It has the LA3 Conversion and top-mount air intercooler. Pretty cool odball, same intercooler as the SVO and 87-88 Thunderbird Turbo Coupe
I am beginning to think production numbers were much higher on those gt turbos. I’ve personally seen 4 in the small city I live in and I’ve seen at least 6 more in various other places. I’ve got the hood and front bumper cover off a totaled white one on my 83 convertible.
I’ll own one of those turbos eventually.
why are all the wheel center caps off these cars? i have noticed this trend in several car collection videos
buying a car with absolutely no intention of driving it is pure silliness to me. what the hell is the point? you could have a model and get the same experience. It's goofy.
The thing I've always had against Mustangs is they always seem to lack that little bit of features that would make them great as well as it seeming like everybody has one.
I love that red color Ford had back then.....I've never been a fan of red, but that color is so beautiful.....lol ...I know this for sure.
Top notch Foxbody content!
Man ford engineers are just so dang smart an geniuses!! From they way made the stang sound better an sell better than any other car an how they made the ford truck have more torque an towing performance than all its competitors!! Lol.
I have that exact blue Cobra. I bought it new in 93. Still have it. It’s slow compared to today’s Mustangs.
I love all the information !!!
Cool collection but hate that people buy these things and keep them locked up .. your car do whatever you want but I would love to drive them 🤷🏻♂️
So let me get this straight, the owner of that red Cobra R, was personally involved in the Courtesy Ford law suit, got his car he ordered, yet never even had PDI done on the car and never driven?!?! What's the point of that?
It’s not the current owner but I guess so.
I'm a GM guy and not much into Mustangs. But I will admit, the fox body was pretty good.
You have the best looking Fox body, right behind that cobra R, although nice, but no fix body even compares to the 79 pace car fix body, surprise you didn’t say anything about it.
Just curious, where are the center caps on the wheels? I noticed that none had centercaps
