jcassity, LOL, I thought the exact same thing. LOL.


FOX-XR7, I have a lot of "next steps", new carpet, replace the console, do some wire hiding under the hood, re-install my header panel to core support filler panel, and on and on. LOL.

MY10-80, I drive it in the ice too. It's built to drive, so, I do. LOL.

17x9 now. I had 17x10 with the other wheels. Althought they are 9's in the back, I still run the same size tires...275 40 17 in the rear, and 255 40 17 up front. No quad shocks though. They won't fit. I have CHE control arms, so, the quad shocks aren't needed anymore.

The Sport looks good as usual.  I also thought it looked like a scale model in that 1st pic!

It's never going anywhere. I love that hood. I'd get rid of the car before the hood.
