I like that Mark VII and would really like those seats. Supercharged engines are also sweet, but Mustangs.....dang, they are so ugly.

I like all kinds of cars but I always seem to end up with some sort of fox and if you want to go fast cheap there's nothing better to than a fox mustang.  The mark was my daily driver for a while and I'd like to find another one some day.

I love the hatches, indifferent about notch's, but I HATE 'verts. I feel the same way as you about the SN-95's I want to like them, I really do, but I just can't. The interior on them is pretty cool looking though. And Mark 7's, I want to like those too, but they look bloated.

If I could find a 91-93 hatch 2.3 manual with CC & pwr mirrors, but manual locks & windows and no A/C, I'd get it in a heartbeat!!

I did do this swap I took a lot of the parts from and 88 tc and put them into an 88 lx 4cly 5speed it was a fun little car and got great mileage, I used the engine, trans, rear diff, sway bars, wheels & tires, brakes and seats I basically made my own svo coupe, this was done about 7 years ago

Not a fox, but not that much different from them, lol. My last vehicle:a 96 Mazda B2300, I miss it so much, the 5 speed more than anything :'(. Cranked out a whopping 112hp/135ft lbs. ( as you know, that was pretty dang good for a N/A 2.3 Lima.) but it did have FACTORY headers!!

With a turbo or a 5.0 those are very cool

I considered both, but in the end I concluded a turbo 2.3 would have been easier, plus I think I could've still used the stock M5OD, it had 3.45 gears, isn't that was TC's usually had?

I love Rangers, but honestly, I didn't use the bed anywhere near as much as I though that I would.
