Dave's 1990 VW Fox

Front page appearances:

March 2009 @ spot #2!!!!

I saw my old VW the other day.  My friend who bought it is running it now.  He put in a day of wrenching and some parts from his stash, and it's all red now and running.  Who would've guessed...anyway....  Thanks for all the good ratings, they put me @ #2!  PLZ comment and rate, and I will return the favor!  Also, check out my new car, the Sunfire.

Hey!  I decided to put up a page for my fox!  I had the fuel system die on her a few months back, but I wanted to put up a page for what she used to be anyway.  More pix and details to come, but I don't have time now.

When I had her running these were the mods and specs:

1.8 L single cam engine

180 watt Boss deck with Roadmaster box and 6x9s in the back and amp/balancer (now in my sunfire)

-American racing shift handle and pedals

-Full Boar/XLerator exhaust system 

-16" neon overhead light

-LOTS of new parts(once a collision victim and it needed many replacements)

-Aftermarket Panorama sunroof (a pain to install)

I drove her about a year before she up and died.   She was a good car, and peppy.  She had no rust, but many new body parts.   When the fuel system goes in a fox, it's gone, and this one went.  She's still sitting, although technically she's been bought back by her former owner for a possible repair.

That's the trunk setup.  I used speakers from everywhere, and it sounded good.  My wiring abilities sucked at that point so it looked ghetto, but other than that it was really loud.  I ditched most of this part of the setup and left it in the fox when I got a new car.

 That's my sunroof.  Clean, nice install, but slow and painful as well.

There's a comparison. Left is when I got it, right is when I sold it.  It was really dirty, and the back seat was worse.

 Like I said, she was a decent car, and a good learning experience.  I liked her, and was sad to have to sell her.  Leave me comments, ask me questions, etc.  :)
