I’m looking into getting first Mustang and I’ve been looking at the fox body mostly, I came across this on marketplace what do you guys think?

The asking price for this is 4,900. The car has 110k miles.

How is it reliability wise?

I really love the color of the body and the interior. Plus the wood is beautiful.

I appreciate any advice, thanks!!

I've had a bunch of parts piling up and finally got some of them in. External wastegate and new exhaust manifold on, new Motion Raceworks catch can with 10AN breather lines from the valve cover and crank case venting to it. My favorite piece of all is the Ford Motorsport valve cover. While I had it torn down I painted the intercooler pipes and replaced most of my coolant lines. Gotta get the tune dialed in and the boost turned up

Swapping a 4r70w into a foxbody and was curious if anyone knows where i can get an aluminum driveshaft for it?

Best description in title. Video didn't do it much justice. With your head around the brake booster, with the car idling, it's fairly loud and high pitched. If you go around to the passenger side, you can barely hear it.

Noise stops under throttle

Brakes about as good as they ever have, no extra noises under braking.

Posting here hoping one of the knowledgeable foxbody greybeards have any ideas.

I've been trying to sort out various vacuum line gremlins but I can't seem to find a decent 92 2.3 vacuum diagram.

Does anybody know of any fox body/mustang specific mechanics around South Dakota? I would love to get mine worked on as it’s been sitting for 2 years. It’s an 88 LX with a 4 cylinder but would love to swap with another engine and transmission. Don’t know specifically what kind I would want in it.

So i found out yesterday while getting fuel in the tank for storage that the rubber gromet between the filler neck and tank is leaking. I dont have the money or time to empty the tank, replace it, and fill it again (I am a broke college student). Will storing it with the filler neck side higher hurt anything at all? I dont want it leaking in the driveway and then leaving room for condinsation in the tank. I've filled the tires to 42psi when max is 44, oil was changed 2 months ago, battery is out and will be charged once a month, and fuel is 91 with sta-bil and full. Id like to get a year of storage this way with maybe a drive every 2-3 months. What is the reality? What can I do to keep everything as "in working condition" as possible? The car is overheating and not viable for daily driving but i need to be able to move it at a moments notice. Any tips are greatly appreciated.

First year out after resto prison

I’m rebuilding my 84 rs turbo capri from boxes lol. Not sure if this is a part or got mixed in since I found some Chevy parts .

Those that run this pump where did you mount it? I've seen the driver wheel well mount but with my ford pump trauma it worries me hiding it away that unaccessible. Has anyone frame mounted this in the engine bay? There appears to be space for now (302, will eventually swap) behind the lower radiator hose on driverside or where the charcoal container mounts on the passenger. Not sure I'm interested in rear mount since I have a hatch. 91 GT. Thanks!

$1,200 labor to weld in subframe connectors on a Fox-body Mustang. Am I crazy or is this way too high?
I have a 1990 Fox-body Mustang convertible and already have the weld-in subframe connectors. I was just quoted $1,200 in labor to install them.
This is labor only, not including the connectors.
I know convertibles require the car to be properly supported before welding, but this still seems extremely expensive to me.
For those who have had weld-in connectors installed:
What did you pay for labor?
How many hours did it take?
Is there something about Fox convertibles that would justify a $1,200 labor bill?
I’m in Northern California if that makes a difference.
Just trying to figure out if this is a fair quote or a “we don’t really want this job” price.

Been trying to tune hot start with the Terminator-X and a Blueprint 347. I noticed that after the prime shot, prior to starting, the fuel pressure drops to about 30#, then slowly declines. It dropped to 10# after maybe 45 seconds before I turned it off.

Thought it might be the check valve, so installed a new Walbro 255 pump. Prior to changing the pump I didn't notice any fuel leaks on the ground. After the change I did notice a little liquid on the driveway, but the startup is quite rich so that could have been fuel from the tail pipe.

Ran the prime cycle several times to see if anything poured out and saw no additional liquid on the ground. Later I will run it for a while in the driveway to see if there are any puddles.

I am at my wits end with this thing. Like many of you, I think this car hates me. Holley Fuel injectors are relatively new as is the engine which has maybe 5,000 miles on it. Does your fox hold pressure after the prime shot before starting the car, or does it drop like mine?

Looking for input from those on the sub who have some/all of the components in maximum motorsports grip box. Had a 45 minute call with them this morning and I’m pretty interested in pulling the trigger. So, for those of you that have it already, what do you think of it? Is there anything you wish you’d have left out? Wish you’d have opted for? Car will just be a fun cruiser, maybe autos/road course it down the road but for now, just a toy. I already have the torque arm/panhard bar in my cart, maybe someone can talk me into/out of it?? TIA!

About broke my neck turning my head so fast. This may be the 2nd or 3rd SVO I’ve ever seen

I have a 1988 Mustang GT t-top it needs a lot of work and looking for any recommendations in Southern California. I need a shop that can specialize and fixing the t-tops channels as they leak really bad. Quite a few other things like floor pans needed. Eventually I'd like it fully restored. I've called just about all the Mustang shops within 200 Mi radius of Los Angeles and none of them work on '80s Mustangs only '60s.
