Thanks, I still have not cleaned it yet. It's been sitting in the garage for years with only a few hundred miles a year. The last Pa. inspection, Feb. 07, the guy asked her "Where do you drive this thing? It only went a couple hundred miles". My Aunt says, "Why just to get ice cream and to see you!"  HAHA

I'll snap a few soon, really...

The paint looks to be in great shape. If you want to give it a little more sporty look then put you some rims on her. You will not believe the difference that can make.

welcome.  First thing you can do is drop that car off at my house.  But bring coffee and doughnuts.  Ok seriously, I see you have the grey interior i've been looking for....so they DO exist.

Alright, this is getting aggravating!  I absolutely CANNOT find an affordable Fox car anywhere near me.  You guys finding these fairly nice cars for ~$500 are just killing me!  I look on Ebay at least every couple days for '83/'86 Cougars and '83/'88 T-birds (sorry, but I really don't care for the '87/'88 Cougars), and they're all either too expensive or too far away, usually both.  What am I doing wrong?  It's probably a blessing in disguise since I have no $$ at the present time, 'cause if a car were to show up I'd probably do something stupid like buy it and tell the mortgage company to go do something unspeakable to themselves.

A note to anybody within 150~200 miles of 42431; if you have a running, non-rust bomb of a car you are considering selling in the near future and aren't going to ask a fortune for, keep me in mind.  Give me a few months to get caught up on some bills, but please let me know.  I appreciate it.

By the way, 88fiveo, nice car and good price.

thanks, I'm gathering parts to convert it to almost ho status. Not sure about putting a cam in it at this point, but I have to take off the intakes to clean/replace some screen under the pcv system feed? Anyway, if I have to take them off, why not put better parts back on? I know it's not a lot of power, maybe 20-40 horses with the parts I'm looking at...
