You absolutely scored on that foxbody. That is a great price for that car. Your channel is going in a great direction with all the eighties and early nineties cars! Awesome line up. Definitely keep the convertible GT.
I'm with Jessica. I had a 1992 5.0 LX and preferred the cleaner look, plus the 5.0 LX is slightly faster than the GT due to it weighing less (as a hard top). The look is personal preference of course.
I like the LX sedan coupe 5.0, and if I ever get another, that will be it. Having bought new a 91 GT, had they a 5.0 LX coupe on the lot, I might have bought it instead, especially when the price was probably several $1000 less! 😁
really nice car randy . I just worked on one that sat for 12 years . had to flush the tank and clean the injectors . runs great!!!
yes it agree, I love the clean look of the LX.
Thanks for the kind words Randy!
And thanks for sending people to my channel!
I really appreciate that!
Enjoy the seats, can’t wait to see them in the car!
As far as picking which car to keep, that’s a tough one because they’re both soooo nice!
Swap the GT back to stock on all the lights, get factory wheels and keep it.
That is a sweet sounding GT. The LX is better looking and lighter, so it is actually faster. My neighbor had a beast of an LX Mustang. It was fast AF.
I say you got a hell of a good deal on that GT. Love the sound. Can't wait to the what the "check engine" light is for.
That's a good deal, good job, Randy. I love your channel. I've been watching it from day one
Love that 93 mustang. It's beautiful and sporty. And with a manual transmission it should be a lot of fun to drive.
Hi Randy. Both of the fox body’s are great cars and I personally would keep them both. I would also think, maybe keep the lx for Nick to have for a first car. Kinda cool for a kids first car. If he can get insurance on it. It’s a great deal. My first car was a ford escort here in the uk kinda similar to the lx. Keeping the 90’s theme going and much better vehicles back before it went all digital.
Very cool convertible! I think I’d swap the cobra wheels from the lx to the convertible! Engine sounds awesome!
Both steal of a deal Randy! Considering "Stay Tuned" just bought a roller with no engine, no chassis harness and no instrument cluster for 2800 dollars for their V12 Fox Body project!
Tony is a very nice guy. I had the pleasure of meeting him at the Syracuse nationals this year. It was early and I noticed him so I stopped while they were setting up and I gave them a hand setting up while chatting with him. He gave me a "we're gonna lose the shop" shirt even though I didn't want anything for helping them.
My wife and I watch your show all of the time and we really like the GT convertible. We learn a lot from your show. Thank you and keep doing what you're doing.
I'm not a convertible person but I love the GT body style.
Love the GT especially with that color combo. It looks like the one Michael Douglas tore up in Basic Instinct. I’m originally from upstate NY and I’ll bet that car has never seen snow. Everyone puts away their hot rods for the winter.
That actually looks very nice! I’m so excited for the next year ish videos on ur channel! Keep it up randy!
Would love to see more rebuilds content, then buys…
This is the video I have been waiting to see. I have been wanting that ‘93 GT. I remember that exhaust and caught my attention.
I've owned 2 Fox Body T5 5-speed Mustangs ('91 5.0 GT, '91 5.0 LX). Basically same car other than GT urethane ground effects and 3.08 (GT) vs 2.73 (LX) gears. Sold the red-on-red LX for $7K and bought my 2017 S550 GT PREMIUM.
Wow. Amazing find. Cant wait for the update. Its clean.
Nice purchase and great video Randy 😊👍
Watch that back glass with anything in the trunk when operating the top 😮
Love both the GT and LX...I've owned both and currently own a '92 LX 5.0 convertible and either way both are way fun to drive and I get all sorts of compliments when I take mine out...If by chance u have intermittent headlight issues, it's probably a melted headlight switch and or turn signal switch...These GT's are notorious for that when running both the fogs and headlights....Definitely worth the $8k all day long and definitely the keeper.
Been waiting for this one since you said u bought it
My buddy had a 92 gt this exact color, but it wasn’t a convertible
that thing is absolutely amazing I love your taste in color combinations 😂 I just got out of the woods from hunting for lunch and this is the perfect length video
I absolutely love my 89 convertible. I’m the 2nd owner and it’s only got 94k miles. Never wrecked. When I converted mine to 134 she started running hot so had to upgrade the radiator with electric fans. She’s good to go and loves running the roads
Good video niceeeee car !!! Can't wait to see what you do with both of them. I like the drop top better.
I remember in high school a friend of mine had a fox body GT, I had a Contour SVT we’d race the hell out of those cars. What a trip, great video Randy!
Really nice find Randy! Those tires look bigger than factory so I think you may have gears in that. Someone didn't change the little gear in the transmission. Great cars. My dad has a 90 GT convertible with a 347.
Hey Randy, hello from northern Illinois. I loved the video. I owned an '87 GT with a 5 speed manual. It was a Camaro eater all day long. I would agree the GT convertible is a definite keeper. Keep up the great work that you do. I'm sure your neighbor down the road will find something else or someone else to be disgruntled with. This too shall pass. Have a great day.
Randy, 93 fox body GT convertible is my favorite 90's car of all time. I can't believe you found one in that great of condition. I have to say I am a little jealous. I love your channel because you like all the cars I loved growing up. Keep up the great content.
Nice car brother! I had a 92 lx and traded it in for the new style 94 gt when I was in the army back in the early mid nighties . Loved both of them.
i love every video you come out with your such an inspiration to me and for that i’m very grateful and thankful and i love mustangs especially the fox bodies that’s my dream car vanilla ice really sold me on that car and so did you keep up the emasculate work Randy
Yet another Awesome car to add to the 80s,90s collection. Rad video as always my friend. 🤠🇺🇸
Coral Gables 🌴🇺🇸 Our 1986 GT convertible white and blue , white leather interior,5 0 HO automatic 👌 Don't your neighbors complain about the vehicles ? ? NEVER do it here ! Hehe 🏄
Keep the GT, love the lineup, I’m living vicariously through you
Beautiful car Randy. Congratulations
Good morning Randy. The 1993 Ford Mustang GT is a good looking car. Let's see if it runs and drives.
That’s a good deal on the GT. Great color combo. Interior is the desired black interior. Gt40 upper and lower off explorer. Probably has the heads too. Cam sounds good. Wheels are nice. Hey I’ll still buy the pedal covers and aftermarket gauges from the LX. I sent you an email. I’m in Dallas but don’t mind driving up to pick them up. Let me know. I build fox mustangs.
Superb revivals of classic awesone real cars ...........watching you from Africa great entertainment keep it Rollin....
That was always my favorite color combo too! Good buy!
I love fox body's as well I'm currently restoring an 1982 glx 5.0 4 SPD t top I'm really loving the mustang content now all you need is a four eyed foxbody
Awesome video Randy thanks again for sharing. The 93 GT reminds me of that 80s movie Twins. It was with Danny Devito and Arnold Schwarzenegger. I remember when Arnold was learning how to drive on it. Do you guys remember that movie but it wasn't two tone paint like the one you got. Anyway keep up the great content and very nice looking GT I think you should definitely keep it.
If you don't own a Vanilla Ice "To The Extreme" CD yet, you need to buy one yesterday. I love all your Foxes, Randy. As someone who REALLY misses my 88 LX 5.0 SSP, I am really jealous of you but happy for you at the same time.
That's so awesome of John to do something nice like that!
Rollin in my 5.0. Brings back memories.
love the GT, cant wait to see what the scan tool says about the engine light!
Hey Randy, gotta tell you I love the normal top more but its just my opinion. Keep it up!
Nice score randy. It's got a cam looked like gt40 intake it's had some work done sounds so good. All you need is a notch back fox body.
When making the decision upon a "keeper" collectible automobile, my vote is always for the convertible body style first, and the station wagon body style second. I have never been without at least one convertible since I got my driver's license in 1975. Currently, I have a 1984 Cadillac Edlorado Biarritz Convertible in midnight blue with white leather and white convertible top. From 1986 to 1988, I owned a 1986 Ford Mustang GT Convertible that I special ordered from the local Ford dealer in Maroon with white top, white leather interior with flat black hood trim delete and every available option except automatic transmission (I did want the five speed manual transmission). I kept that car for 36 months, it was a beautiful, comfortable, small car, but it was a warranty problem nightmare and when the extended warranty was about to expire at 36-months and 45,000 miles, I sold it and purchased a pristine 1975 Pontiac Grandville Convertible that I drove for years thereafter, trouble-free.
Randy, both are beautiful cars and each have their unique qualities. The LX will probably handle a little better than the convertible GT. I think you might have an E cam in the GT by the sound of it. The BorgWarner T5 in the GT sounds like 2nd gear synchro might be bad (typical) You will need to speedo gear on the transmission due to probably having 373 gears in the rear to fix your speedometer problem… I believe it’s a blue gear. Have fun with both!!! Love the channel
100% on all of that, it is absolutely an E, and yes the blue 23 tooth gear is the one that is needed for 3.73s. Also, with the work that has been done, it needs the blue 24# injectors, those tan 19#ers are getting close to max duty cycle to feed that engine.
$8k is not a deal on a foxbody vert, they are a dime a dozen.
@sloehr1974 the 19lb injectors are fine for what's in that vert. I ran a stock 5.0 with 93 cobra intake, 1.6 rockers and an e cam and a few other mods on 19lb injectors and it was just fine. Ya start adding heads and a few other things then yes 19s need to go
Look at the condition, bud, and look at the mods. Dont pull the "dime a dozen" shit, ever since Collins took his fleet of non-PDIed Foxes to BJ, every dickhead with a rusted, twisted pile thinks its worth $8-10k. $8k for that car, in that condition, with that work done, is good
@@stangcrazy89
Do I think Foxes are worth what they are bringing right now? Hell no, not a chance in Hell, but it is what it is
I always loved the 89 Mustang GT convertible. I think the different color ground effects really set it off. I’m wondering if people like the LX version are more looking to modify and drag race. Or I guess some just like it aesthetically if they don’t like the looks of the ground effects. The GT version looks great with the top down and all the windows rolled down. I like how the GTs look with a real nice roll bar. The 89 Saleens were really sweet too. I bought a 2005 GT Mustang brand new and drove it for about 6 years but I have to get me one of those 89 GT convert someday it was definitely a dream car when I was a kid.
I have had multiple fox bodies… you did very well on that 93 convertible. I prefer the lx hatchback.. 2 things I would check for the rough idle! IAC valve or TPS
I think I agree with Jessica.
I like the LX more than the GT.
You commonly say how people don’t want older late 90s and 2000s GM cars check out vehcor he will prove you wrong, he’s a rebuilder in Chicago and around this time of year, those are the cars people are looking for and he sells them very fast and for good money, especially if they are clean, he buys cars from Oregon, Oklahoma, Texas and brings them back to Chicago.
Yes, he buys most of them from Copart so some of the cars that you may review, you never know they may end up in Chicago and other places , not all go to the crusher.
Nice buy Randy I just looked at a 87 Foxbody convertible yesterday that showed up at my auction with 40K miles
Love the foxes. Rolling in a 85 t top GT currently.
Love the staggered wheel setup
I love the lights and the wheels that GT looks great.
Good morning sir. Good to see you again. 😊👍
I got a 1990 my self and man it turns heads everywhere I go …
I decided to go all black on black … new paint job stands out …
Great buy brother enjoy it
She’s a keeper
I bet it has a 303 cam
Good video & buy Randy & I'm going to check out the channel love the color of the mustang
Gotta love a 1985+ 5.0 with a chambered exhaust! Best sounding cars! Keep the GT!❤
Nice gt 8k is a good deal nowadays you can't go wrong with any foxbody imo but the lx hatchback is my favorite
I also like the two-tone paint on the Mustang and the top is good.😊👍
To be honest back in my day, they both were sought after I had a gt I had an lx one was a hatchback one was a notch back. Either way you have both cars of my youth and you done well on your purchase, keep doing what your doing I love your videos and knowledge on these cars
13:33 beep beep beep looolll!! Im dying of laugh
I have to agree with Jessica. I like the LX better both are beautiful cars man can’t wait for the next video
Speedo is off due to gearing. Tires might not be factory size, but won't make the speedo be off by 10mph.
That's a killer deal the values of fox body mustangs keep going up
It definitely has a cam it Randy, l knew that as soon as started it. Sounds great. 😊👍I love it
Yes that GT sounded delicious 😋 😍 😊
Congrats the cabrio in that shape is a great find
Bro I love your GT convertable!! Thats my dream car!! I had a 1980 Mustang but I always wanted the same color mustang gt that you got. If you ever decide to sell it I'll buy it. 😎🔥💯❤️
Last year of the square Fox Body nice! I like that black interior.
Never been too crazy for drop tops, but, its a sharp car. The hard top would be my pick!!
Oh man you don't see them around anymore, it looks so cool, miss the 90ties 🤘🏽🔥
To be honestly and seriously I seriously do like the both of these in my opinion and they look good In your driveway
"Rollin' in my 5.0
With my rag-top down so my hair can blow"
Hey Randy..Vanilla Ice Mustang has a lopy camshaft..nice Mustangs you have there.
LX has always been my fave.. I worked at a Ford dealer in the early 90s and thought that since then
I always liked the clean simple look of the LX notchback
Sell them both, and get the GT with a sunroof, and stock headlights. I bought one new in 91, and loved it for the few years I had it. Thing road like a truck, but got me to Vegas in 2 /12 hours rather than the normal 3 1/2!😁Plus, I like the stock wheels on the 91 better, but that's subjective.😁👍😎✌🗽
P.S. I actually prefer the LX coupe/sedan 5.0. Take a look at that as yours is the hatchback which is not much different that the GT. just no ground effects.✌
Finally 30 min video. No more shorts please!!!! Thumbs up.
Nice cars, early 70’s mustangs are my favorites.
My Dad is a mechanic and when he listened to the car he said that it's cammed not running rough just cammed
@autoauctionrebuilds Man I am loving your GT! Normally I am not a fan of convertibles but man that is a sharp looking drop top 👍🏼😎 It would be the drop top for me. I am thinking that GT probably has a cam in it.
The gt convertible is one of my dream cars and still is. The lx is beautiful also but i love the gt's ground affects.
Randy the Beeping noise is the Air Bag Module under the dash. Clock Spring most likely has gone bad. The color on the car is called Electric Red. Fox Bodies are notorious for shocking people in cold weather.
I love them both. These fox body mustangs have always been my favorite. If I had to choose I would keep the GT.
Great price and the colour is cool too!
Mr. Rock Throwing Guy is really gonna love that GT
I love both cars. Boyz in the hood got me going on the fox mustangs
Love the headlights on the convertible
Keep the GT. Love em both. Had both. Also had that same blue Z24 back in 88 to 94. Shipped it the UK in 90 when I was in the Air Force.
Randy, that upper intake is from a 96-98 5.0 explorer/mountaineer. It’s a factory cast gt-40 style and even accepts the stock 5.0 emblem.
My fav thumbnail on the channel since I started watching back in 2017.
I would keep the LX over the GT for many reasons.
But if you keep the GT Vert, the 1 piece headlights gotta gooo
Can’t beat a fox body. You have two nice Mustangs. Price was right on both. Nice buys.
Respect. Back in the day I had a foxbody 88 with a 4 banger. Over a weekend some friends and I did a 5.0 swap. I loved that car until someone rear-ended me. I say keep the lx just because of nostalgic reasons.
If they didn't tune it after putting a cam in it, the car won't run for crap. Those 5.0 computers hate cam upgrades. Low rpm is the main issue
Sounds great💯🙌
I love both I've owned 5 mustang gt,s great channel 🎉
I'd definitely keep the lx love the channel Randy
