The newest addition to my stable

[Tommy]

:rock: :cheers: :heeeelllllooooo:

I just bought this today after a short search for a fox.

THANK YOU TO ALL WHO HELPED ME SEARCH :hello:


1990 LX Notchback, SSP/police car. Ex-Missouri trooper car. 133k miles

mods:

-BBK headers
-BBK Fender intake
-BBK throttle body
-24 lb injectors
-Kenny brown brace
-welded subframe connectors
-flowmasters
-MAC O/R H-Pipe
-short shifter
-drilled rotors front
-Koni shocks all around
-cobra intake plenum (painted cheap, will replace)

Its an authentic SSP car. Has the single key lock/ignition, trunk switch relocation, heavy duty amp, buck tags DSO tag, 160 MPH certified speedo

Very minor issues to work on, but excellent for a daily driver!

I couldn't decide between this one and the 89 Saleen, but I was too late for the Saleen.............so I took this one. I pick it up Tuesday

Well, in the eyes of a 16 year old new driver he'll get a sweet deal! He'll get the 2008 Civic Si which only has 20k miles currently. My ex-wife wants him in a car with current safety standards and poop load of airbags all around :rofl: I told her to take back that vagina and give him back his manhood :lol:

but.......ALL the Stangs are MY toys! :evil: he can borrow my truck :rofl:

1990 SSP Notchback LX
1993 SVT Cobra 23k miles
2007 GT500

NICE CAR!!:adore: If it's a true (trooper car) then it ..is..a..collector's car. Check out article in Mustang Milestone's by Auto trader magazine. ALSO go to www.sspmustang.org for information on ssp cars.:D

I've been online a bit checking out SSP relatd stuff and came across that site. I'm there also now.

Yeah, I'm familiar with what to look for on SSP cars and I couldn't find any clues to it being a clone. Has the buck tags on the core support as well. Those would be tricky to clone.

Sweet car though! I'm gonna very the vin later. Even if its a clone, I like it.

Great looking car. How much did you end up picking it up for?

Cost me $4300 so far. I have a few stuff lined up already. My budget was around $8-$9k, so I have room for a few things :idea:

The one that got away

I was too late for this one. Was a California car all its life, still with original plates. It's going to Louisiana I believe. Would have been nice to keep it here.

The more I think about it though, I don't think I would've wanted to use that Saleen as a daily driver. It's just way too nice. I would've felt guilty about putting miles on it just like I do on my 93 SVT Cobra. Thats why I wanted a daily driver in the first place, so I can leave the collectibles under the cover and still drive a nice looking Fox body. I think I would've ended up in the same situation after spending $7500. In the end, I'm glad this worked out.


:adore: :adore: :adore: :adore:

PICS FROM THE F/S AD:

 

[Soliz53]

Man thats a nice one I wish I would have seen something like that wen I was looking for a car.

 

[sdsubzero4]

The more I see the Fox Body, the more liking I'm taking to it. Maybe, I will invest in one in the future, too.

 

[orange395w]

Awesome pickup Tom! What are your plans for the car? Dude I still want you to buy the strawberry coupe though, lol!

 

[BlueStallion5.0]
