Why I bought a Fox body...
I paid $5000 for my coupe. I figure that for $5K more I could get my car into the 11's easily(even with a new shortblock). I already have all of the bolt-ons installed.
Check out what the competition is spending. Not that you couldn't spend that much on a Mustang, but dam! LS1 money spent

Crazy. For what it would cost me to get the 97 I already have to run low 12s I could buy a 65 and get it there. Me thinks I'll do that.

I downloaded the program off of Kazaa for free. Full working version. Send me some pics of your car and anything else you want incorporated and I can make one for you.

banner
just add an image tag in your signature box under edit profile.
It would look like this...<img]http://www.hostingcompany.com/imagename.gif[/img> Just put the link to your image in between the img tags. Replace the < and > with [ and ].

Just a note of caution. One of the IT guru's at our plant spent about 6 hours the other night trying to undo a virus that Kazaa sent along with some mp3's a guy had downloaded. He did say it definitely came from the download and so far it has completely wrecked the PC it attacked. It happened Sunday night so beware!

Correction, you can get viruses from mp3's, and i would know this. I had Kazaa, and a crappy virus program, and i got a virus from my music, alls kazaa does is open up your computer to other kazaa users, it doesnt matter what you are downloading, they can still hack into your computer. Word of caution: GET NORTON ANTIVIRUS! I got it today, and it deletes all of my viruses, and it blocks pop ups and spam. Just get it quick, before you have to delete your hard drive, like i did, to fix her. But its all good. You cant beat kazaa for selection though.
