Too Ugly For My Tastes

mustangman65_79 · 12-01-2002, 01:15 AM

OMG! That would be too cool, and I would make it a sleeper. To me, I like the body style, and if I could, I would.

Hammer · 12-01-2002, 01:36 AM

Ugh,
I also think that the Focus is ugly...

This may be herecy on a Ford board, but this would be way cooler in my opinion:

That would be SWEET. Anyone see the buildup they did on HotRod TV with a 5.0L Focus? I heard it was really cool, and that was coming from a Chevy guy!

69fastback · 12-01-2002, 02:13 AM

i bet a 302 focus could really be a great sleeper and haul some butt. Most people would never see that thing coming. I am sure they could hear it though lol.

MidNiteBlu 5.0 · 12-01-2002, 02:29 AM

i would do it. I kinda like the Focus styling. I think that would be a hell of a sleeper.

That was SOOOOOOO cold, Mike. Man. LOL.

Hammer-
A friend of mine that is currently acting more like a woman possessed with PMS, is a Fiero freak. He is a trip. He works at Hawaii Racing, and has been slinging parts for 20+ years. He owns nothing but Snap-on tools. He buys the very best in just about everything. Then he puts it away. He has more tool sets that are still in celophane than he has that are used. he has NO mechanical skill, and is actually very funny to watch when he tries to work on something. He has a dozen project vehicles, all of which are a month away from completion, and have been for 5 or more years.

Anyway, you get the picture. Well, his love for Fieros has gotten me to the point where the mere mention of one get's me giggling. I could never own one. I wouldn't be able to stop laughing long enough.

Thanks for the idea, though

The Focus looks like a shrunk mini van.

I would rather cut the floorboard out of my stang and do like the flinstones.

But thats just me

I'd go the Pinto route if you're looking for a small car...

Okay. That is the first sig I've seen in 3+ years that left me speechless. I can't decide which way to run with it.

DAN-MAN · 12-01-2002, 08:13 PM

A v-8 Focus? Too cool.

Daniel.

I found a box of business cards in my dad's office from the the 70's when he and his brother ran a car lot...

1969Mach1 · 12-01-2002, 08:52 PM

I can't say the Focus does much for me, but a V8 in any car is a good thing to me.

§am.

The Deuce · 12-01-2002, 08:58 PM

'62-64 Comet 2 door.
'63 Fairlane
'60-61 Falcon

Pre-smog Zephyr (merc pinto)

PKRWUD · 12-01-2002, 09:00 PM

Pinto=Bobcat
Fairmont=Zephyr

Kamaro Killer · 12-01-2002, 09:35 PM

I need to scrounge (sp) up some cash and pay someone to fix that damn thing for me already. It'll be put to use eventually, later, Keith

Capri306 · 12-02-2002, 02:12 AM

Oh, come on! Who wouldn't want one of these toilet-seat-grilled beauties?!?!?!

Hahahaha. I'd just LOVE to see someone make one of those just FLY, ya know? Like with a stroked/poked 460 --> 500+, blown, injected, etc.?

j/k, I'm nuts.
