The new project: 89 lx hatch

Well thanks to Sam I am the owner of another fox body! here are some pics, i gutted it to lay down some sound deadner and clean interior parts.
Nothing special right now, changed all the fluids and filters, got some new hoses, and have just been drivin her.









The duct tape was just to keep the rain out lol


Going to get started on the body work soon, should be fun!

Nik, we should talk. 5.3l turbo'd in that would be sweet!

How about turbo 302? Im gonna get the body and interior done first then worry about the engine!

that would be cool too. i just know that a 5.3l with a z06 cam and a spring swap with a 76mm turbo will hold 625 rwhp with no problem at all for many many miles.

Chevy engine isnt going in the mustang lol sorry.

dam nick i had no idea u were that motovated ..

even josh knew you had to put a chevy engine in a ford to make them go fast. just joking guys, you can build some good power with the blue ovals.

Good stuff! We use a lot of that at Big Sky Collision. Good luck man, looks like a fun project!!

Thanks Todd

ive got a dolly and hammer kit if you need to barrow it.

Thanks Chris but I already have a set of hammers and dollys

That looks about as much fun as the 88 lx that just sits in my driveway. At least you got another 5.o motor. mine still rocks the 2.3. you still have the white 2.3?

Yup definately allot more fun than the ole 2.3, yes I do.

Remember that pesky rust on the Hatch? well its all gone now, along with all the imperfections and dents.
