8), Good looking fox-body you picked up! Sounds pretty unmolested to, and definitely looks good for having 150k miles most of the foxes around here with 150k are either beat up and falling apart, or so far from stock the best thing you can do is pray the guy you're buying the car from had half a clue of what he was doing :doh:. Auto must be built up pretty nice for you to like it that much, my only requirements for a fox-body when I get a chance to get one are 5.0./5 speed :lol:.

Thanks Casey, I looked at so many of those things its unreal. And like you say, most of them are pretty beat down and still way over priced. I had looked at this car about a month ago and he was asking 3500 for it but I didnt have the cash on me and it was 2 hours away. I called him a couple weeks ago and he still had it and said he was in a bind and to bring 3000 and pick it up.
