    I used to flip foxes for a living and I've saved quite a few of them a lot of with front end damage my buddy had one that we thought was pretty bad but we ended up pulling the frame in it came out amazing and it was a Bimini blue 92 LX hatch with gray leather with every option you could think of minus AC which was kind of an odd thing we thought that was a long time ago maybe 18 years now but that was one of the funnest projects that we had I was able to repair it and give it back to him and his life just lit up again unfortunately he is no longer with us he passed away from cancer but I'll never forget the day that I gave him his car back and the smile on his face was just priceless! unforgettable times with these cars & they have brought a lot of us together as well thanks for doing what you do man I appreciate it Dan!

    Good stuff! A 30 year old car is probably wrecked - my 2016 Dart had been wrecked when I got it in 2017! Project Phoenix is mangled in the front core support and bumper shocks, but airbag did not deploy. JYM (89) has the older fender on one side and the 91+ fender on the other side that I pulled from the junkyard.

    Good video D! You gotta love those Midwest, bust your ass, sheets of ice that dominate the landscapes this time of year.
    The front passenger fender on my 87 has been replaced. It has a Ford DOT tag instead of the Vin Tag. I had my body guy look at it and he didn't think it was hit...maybe rust, or a small bump? But now what makes me think further, is that there is indeed a crack next to that "Anderson Power Pipe"
    My next venture is to look at the area where the shock tower and frame meets you spoke of. I have a clean title and car fax, but we both know, that doesn't mean ish!

    You’re %100 correct I have a 90 also that was getting painted when my body guy went to jail. The car was in pieces in primer and I had to have it flatbedded to my house. Insurance totaled it and I bought it back for $300. They said if I decided to try and finish it it wouldn’t be a problem registering it again and that it is possible to get the salvage mark off the title by having it inspected by the state. It’s a lx hatch 5.0 5 speed blue with grey sunroof car. I’d like to finish it this year. I’m always busy working on the other mustangs but I think it’s time. I looked all over for that car and literally drove it from the guys house to the body shop where it was taken apart about 3 years ago. It’s a shame it’s an all original mustang. Never messed with. It’s a clean slate.

      I recently picked up a 88 lx and haven't decided what direction to go with it yet . I'm super tempted to make it look as stock appearing as possible outwardly , and putting my 363 in it and adding a low mount twin turbos . Then I thought maybe the same set up and a GT or Cobra clone ...i dunno I got time to decide .
