Here's my daily driven '89LX 4-cyl coupe! Has the bone stock 151,000 mile 2.3 backed by a rebuilt AOD tranny and 7.5 rear end. This is how the car currently looks. I love Fox body coupes! I'm torn between dropping in an '88 T-Bird Turbo Coupe 2.3 engine, or putting everything from my '86 LX hatchback (built 351W/C4/4.30-8.8) in it. It would be a shame to let a 4-cyl Fox coupe stay stock, wouldn't it? LOL!
Among my many dreams of this car would include a "Viper-Spec" T-56 6-spd behind a 408W with AFR 225 aluminum heads, Maier Racing 1.5" flared fenders and quarter panels, 17x10" CCW "Classic" wheels and Maximum Motorsports "Maximum Grip Box" suspension/chassis. <--This particular dream would easily exceed $15K and still take another $7-10K to finish!
As it sits, bone stock with full interior, etc... and a full tank of gas, the car weighs 2760# w/o driver(I add another 260 to the total!). It would be nice with a built 250-ish horsepower 2.3 turbo, OR a 600hp 408W...personally I think V8 Mustangs and Flowmaster mufflers go together like peanutbutter & jelly!
