Generation X's Muscle Car & Millenial's Hot Rod⚡️Foxbody 5.0 Mustang (1979-1993)

#MustangTown #FoxbodyBrigade
The ever-popular original 5.0 Mustang (aka: Fox-body) If you grew up through the '80s or early '90s you experienced and lived it... and here’s a video of it, the Foxbody Mustang, or back in those days simply known as the 5.0 Mustang, 5-liter Mustang or 5.0… the term "Fox-body" which of course is the 1979-1993 Mustang's chassis/platform, actually didn't really take off and become the most known nickname of these cars until after the S197 models hit the streets. With a few generations behind it they started to be identified as the Foxbody more so than the 5.0 or 5-liter. These cars were absolutely the "best bang for the buck" pound for pound champs back in the '80s and early '90s and were just "straight line killers".
For around $10,000 you had a factory performance car that ran mid 14 second 1/4 miles off the showroom floor and with mild tweaking could hit 13 second times... soon tuners were porting heads, extrude honing intakes, gears and slicks and running easy 12 seconds... and the aftermarket exploded!!! Pro 5.0 racers quickly figured out how to run sub-10 second 1/4 miles, by the late '90s a turbo revolution started thanks to racers like Mark Harwell, Gene Deputy and these little turbocharged Foxes were hitting 8-sec and faster times down the 1/4 mile strip. These light little Ponycars became the modern day tri-five Chevy and '32 Ford, and if you lived it you know all about it...
I wanted to toss together a little 5.0 Mustang Foxbody tribute with some of my older footage that I shot back in the day, a tribute to the car and the past, present and future Foxbody Mustang freaks out there. Hope it takes ya back folks! Since I was a young kid I always wanted to build a Time Machine… well I finally did it with this channel #MuscleCarTimeMachine ❤️

[@DopeFragz]

After watching this, I'm even more proud to have my 91" GT that I never get tired of. Foxbodys are awesome I don't care what anyone says!

[@nedaCFilms]

+DopeFragz Doesn't matter what anyone says or thinks anyway... it's what makes you happy and excited, and gives you that warm and fuzzy feeling inside lol. Five to ten years from now you will be damn happy that you kept the Fox-body because prices are shooting up right now. The window of cheap affordable Fox-Mustang models is closing.

[@DRock6906]

Me too brother! I still have my '91 GT as well. It's in my garage, covered up, and has been off the street since 2005. I am, however, in the process of getting her ready for the summer :-) Seeing a 5.0 on the street where I live is like spotting Bigfoot so I'm excited to be bringing her back out!

[@c431inf]

Yup

[@modularmahem12]

As a high school kid in the late 80’s, and the fact my best friend in high school had a stripper ‘89 notch with a 5 psd and 3.08 Trak-Lok, there wasn’t a Chevy in town that was safe. That car hauled ass and took a beating. Never missed a beat. Very fond memories and many miles in that car. Long live the 5.0 HO and the Foxbody. Thanks Ford for many good times and thanks for a great video tribute. Great job.

[@latemodelrestoration]

Great video guys! Glad to see some shared passion of the Fox Body!!

[@nedaCFilms]

***** LatemodelRestoration.com I have a question for Jeff, Tyler or any other fellas at Latemodel-Resto, do you guys keep past catalogs in storage by chance? ...and if so, would you sell a few? I had a nice collection of catalogs through the years and made the mistake of loaning them out, lol (only to never see them again) I am especially interested in I think the 2002 catalog, I believe it was yellow and featured the old LMR '79 pace car on the cover.... anyway, thanks for being there for us Fox-body guys!

[@MrLive2win]

Wow!!! Those Foxes have aged so well. The sound of the 5.0L Fox is unforgettable. Sounds as good as Led Zeppelin's Stairway To Heaven coming out of an exhaust pipe!!!!

[@mikesmith5375]

Wanted the sound of a HARLEY, and I got better FOX BODY 5.0 NOTHING ELSE MATTERS!

[@davesilva75]

I have a 2008 m3 I'm 40. I had a few foxbody mustangs back in the day...and still the m3 wasnt enough i wanted a fox and bought one . I'm a very happy man.😊

[@boraepr]

ford should start building these again best looking best sounding mustangs ever

[@nedaCFilms]

Leave the classics classic..... or they wouldn't be classic lol.

[@Theydotheharlemshake]

@@nedaCFilms I think they should reissue a years production as a anniversary, same with 60s and 70s mustang

[@redslate]

They're ugly little shitboxes that sound like mechanical ass. This is of course entirely subjective.

[@ryantaraskas5759]

Hey they remade the older one they should make a new version of the foxbody with some of that new engine technology with huge amounts of horse power and torque

[@someonewhatever611]

And fuck up the classic stangs like they did with the 05? Please make a mustang 2 or something as you cabt make me hate them any more.

[@427walrus]

This is awesome. I am restoring my 92 5.0 LX hatch now. Found it after I sold it 11 years ago. Won't sell it ever again that's for sure.

[@nedaCFilms]

That's so cool that you found your LX

[@laudanum669]

I just bought a 92 LX hatch 5.0. I lost my 88 LX in a crash. I'm a LX Hatch guy. Nothing against GT's or Notches. I just like the looks of the LXH.

[@genxmurse7019]

They were everywhere, and that was an understatement. By the time I started high school in 1985, I was getting a first-hand look when some fellow students were bringing them to our auto mechanics class. I even developed a dislike, because I was getting tired of watching street races with nothing but Mustangs. During that time, daily driven big block classics were already scarce, and they were rapidly declining. It wasn't until I got out of the military in 1993, I bought an 89' GT. Then I was hooked, because it was all mine.

[@nedaCFilms]

I started HS in 1986 and bought my first 5.0 Mustang in 1993 as well, it was good times lol.

[@ccchicken8889]

The Fox Body has a real special legacy. Decades later people's ears perk up when they hear that classic sound. They know what it is before they see it, and they keep their eyes open for it. I've never seen a car demand that sort of attention.

[@nedaCFilms]

The only other models that recieved that type of attention were the '30s Ford and '50s Chevy.

[@Jerry-qx5pr]

So much nostalgia viewing this old video, have 1990 gt love my car never going to sale

[@joebird4500]

There is just something about a Foxbody. I have 2 now a 93 coupe and 91 Gt. I bought my first one in 1997 it was a 88 Gt. Over the years I have had at least 20 of them. They are just a blast to drive and work on.

[@xPTNxProductions]

Got my first car a little over a yer ago and at 17 years old this thing is a blast from the past. She is a bright red 1991 lx 5.0. Best choice I ever made was giving this car the nod. I swear I'll never get rid of this car! Long live the fox!

[@nedaCFilms]

+xPTNxProductions Cool first car to own! Congrats and enjoy it! Nice examples are becoming hard to come by as well so hang onto it lol.

[@AwakeDude911]

+xPTNxProductions ........that's what we all say then 1 day you have a pile of cash and watching tail lights...

[@xPTNxProductions]

+AwakeDude911 no don't say that! I can't even fathom getting rid of it

[@jaylongton]

I have 5 notchbacks and 3 hatchbacks and still can't get enough! I'm 49 and really miss the 80's when everyone hung out and had fun all weekend long with their Foxes.

[@davesilva75]

Wow.! That's a lot of mustangs...I thought I was crazy having a bmw m3 and a Mustang.

[@guttajones100]

I wish Ford would remake a notch, I love notch backs

[@captainhowdy9557]

Yes back when I was in high school I graduated in 99 that was the end of the era my first car was a emerald green LX hatch back 5.0 5spd 28k miles when I got it in early 98 . Their was still tons of people with their fox body's hanging out , I was the youngest and the baby of the group of guys and girls that graduated late 80 early 90 , I was the last of a dying bread that I literally watched die off . I still have my lx and its my baby . When I bust out a original paint emerald green lx people go crazy . But I don't hot dog anymore . I'm more concerned about somebody else hitting me , it's my week end car if that , I'm not risking breaking anything . clean fox is a 🦄

[@towheadmancos]

I really liked the video; I have an '83 GLX 5.0 convertible, w/T5 manual transmission. 31k original miles, BBK shorty headers, off-road mid pipe and Magnaflow exhaust... It's a garage baby, parked under a carport and with a car cover. Bring it out on sunny weekend days & people constantly come up to me and start asking questions about the car....fun times!!

[@nedaCFilms]

towheadmancos That's why I made this video.... to hear the old and new Fox-body 5.0 Mustang stories. I bought my first 5.0 Mustang back in the early '90s and my buddy had a 1983 GLX model 5.0 and we would race the !$%&? out of them sumbitches, lol.... didn't take him long to tear out 2nd gear..... then few months later I wrecked mine, lol.

[@nedaCFilms]

These cars were a big deal back in the '80s.... and I wanted to throw together a little 5.0 Mustang Foxbody tribute featuring some of my old Foxbody footage that I shot many years ago. Just a little tribute to the car... and the past, present and future Foxbody Mustang freaks out there.

[@dog33100]

im 15 and just got my first car its a 1991 mustang lx coupe with an aod and a 5.0. its a project but man is it sure fun to drive

[@JohnTraeKing]

Swap a 5-speed in it for even more fun... as well as free up a few hp with less parasitic drag.

[@dog33100]

nah i'll just end up burning the clutches up all the time haha and this is going to be a street strip car and i may do a little bracket racing so i want an auto for consistency too

[@TheKoppenhaffer]

sweg biggums As a mustang owner, get rid of that AOD. You'll gain what feels like 50hp ditching that turd.

[@nedaCFilms]

Yeah, the 5-speed models are absolutely more fun to drive and don't loose as much hp through the drivetrain due to parasitic drag.

[@MassEffectFTW]

I was born in 1996. When I was just a lil' boy, like 4-5 years old when I first saw one, and these things were still the real street kings. Alotta people I know still think they're ugly, and more say they're 'dated'. True, they were a product of their time, and they may not have the best styling, but they had attitude. They had presence, an 'Aura' if you will, that many cars just don't have. I'm 26 as I write this, and I still hope to one day have a 5.0 Foxbody Mustang in my garage, at some point, in my life.

[@W5rr2nG]

Love it! Miss these cars with original 5.0s.. those were the good ol days.

[@MegaSheila12]

Ah. The good old days. Had an 85 that I built a long rod 306 with victor Jr. stuff. Miss it. Then a 1992 with iron gt 40 heads b cam and a Paxton. Sucks being 46 with 4 kids now and no fast cars. . Well, love my life. Just wish I had a gt again. Lots of fun.

[@nedaCFilms]

+William Howell You can find a cheap project to tinker with. Few more years it will be hard to even find a project because prices will soon rise. Heck, maybe one of your kids will take to the project.... then you can pass it along to him when he is older.

[@monikhushalpuri]

I got an idea for you bud, tell your kids how much you miss your mustang and how before you retire you want to find a another foxbody but can’t afford it, then the kids will get you a foxbody and they’ll post it on KZbin to share your reaction with the world, you get a mustang for free, kids get to make a couple hundred bucks off your reaction from KZbin...win win lol but in all seriousness brother just look around you’ll find a good one for cheap, I got mine in the boonies up here in Canada for cheap, sold it a few months back but getting another one next year

[@AronaathWoW]

im 19 and this video is exactly why i pour blood sweat and tears into my 82 5.0 coupe

[@oxyrisin]

AronaathWoW Damn an 82 coup 5.0! Thats a rare a sweet car bro! Nice!

[@lesmeredith4986]

Had an 82 myself back in the day, mid 80's. Bad little ride it was,....still miss it!

[@foxbody-bt4cu]

I'm 17 and pour it into my 89 and 91, restoring the 91 currently I want an 87 notch on craigslist its 750 and if it doesn't get bought it's going to be crushed :'(

[@pittsky]

I'm a Gen X'er and I approve of this message. My '89 notch is in the garage right now. If you weren't around in the late 80's early 90's its hard to explain the impact this car had. Good 'ol days. This video gave me chills.

[@chrisbishop7253]

Damn good video!!! And absolutely right! 10 years ago you seen them all the time. I have a 93 and you would swear im driving an exotic. The reactions i get are unbelievable! Now thats a vid in its self! I have a game i made up called "the head turn game" me and a buddy of mine will take bets on how many people will recognize the car to our destination. Its just unreal the attention these cars are getting.

[@Blackneck1994]

Fox Bodys are still super special cars. They may be slow by today's standards, but they are still really fun cars!! BTW I love this channel man. So nostalgic... It's cool to see how the street scene was back then.

[@nedaCFilms]

Thanks!

[@mikesmith5375]

WIth MOST of todays cars looking like AN EGG (for a purpose, MPG) the FOX body just looks plain and if its the FOX sedan/coupe well you have a exterior sleeper for sure. If no exterior changes are made like raised hood or bling bling stuff you will have a winner by default and SHOCK someone unsuspecting of that 5.0 (unless they notice those PIPES:)

[@EvoModerator]

This video really did inspire me to purchase my very first manual car at 19 years old.. a '91 Red Mustang GT Hatch. Took some time to learn how to drive on my own, but now that I can drive it it's a dream come true.

[@timcole421]

It's crazy how so many of us gen x-er's who have never met share the same nostalgic memories and the same impact it had on our car groups growing up. I really don't see the market propulsion slowing down any time soon. If anything they're getting more popular. I've never seen a car market blow up like the fox and a few other 80's-90's cars have recently. Had an 88GT back in the day and picked up my 91 GT a year ago having no idea of the market blowing up on them or how much I would fall in love with them again. Great video.

[@shawnwest4984]

took out my 92 black GT for a workout yesterday ate a porsche for lunch 5.0's will always be cool

[@c431inf]

My first car have her for 28 years now and its still my dream car , nothing else feels the same , rebuilt from scrap with my dad and will hand off to my kids

[@nedaCFilms]

That’s too cool 😎

[@281cobracar7]

I had two 85 Mustang GT's, a 88 LX 5.0 and then picked up a 89 Saleen. Still have the Saleen, it's a keeper. Did the whole 5.0 thing in the 80's and 90's. Good times, fox bodies 5.0 rule the streets back then.

[@12anded]

Great video as always. Make me proud to own one. And you're right. You just don't see them, and when I so, whether a 4, 6, or 8 cyl, it always gets my attention and makes me smile.

[@ISpinUWin]

I bought a new one in 1989, finally let it go in 2009. Even have a few old videos on my KZbin channel. Great video thanks for the memories!

[@Odin3v]

I have 82 GT. I love this car. Its my favorite foxbody style. Hard as hell to find. Took 5 years to find one. Its my first fox and wont be my last. I am a foxbody fanatic.

[@douglasf3323]

Love these videos man. Rebuilding my Fox and almost ready to crank it up. These vids have really pushed me to get it done. Thanks for the inspiration and entertainment.

[@socialdisaster3281]

I’m 42 own superbikes ,had high end turbo wrx’s, Camaro ss’s , but honestly nothing puts a smile on my face than driving my 1993 lx convertible.I can drive all night listening to the 5.0 rumble in 5th at the sweet spot of 120km/h on the freeway.

[@JohnnyGMachine]

Cool video. I'm gettin' ready to sell my '06 GT I've had for almost 4 years now. Lots of mods and at about 400 hp. I've had 7 Fox Bodies and just picked up a '93 LX Hatch 4 banger that's gettin' ready to go under the knife now. Super clean and waitin' for the Coyote 5.0 to get swapped in. I have to say I love the 06 GT but I just miss havin' a fox. There's nothin' like it!

[@Aberamentho2010]

Sweet vid man. Brought back a lot of memories. I really needed this. I've got a retired 5.0lx that's been sitting in storage exile for the past few years now..... patiently awaiting it's day of redemption and return to glory. The time is near....

[@nedaCFilms]

Aberamentho2010 That is great man... I hope this video inspired you some! Don't ever sell it man, you will be sick about it for years.

[@toddlococo6578]

Great video man. In the 90's I was in high school and remember a few of us had five-o's. To this day, my wife thinks I'm a freak when I hear (which is becoming more rare) a healthy 5.0 winding through the gears and I yell out "listen, it's a 5.0 Mustang!". What a distinctive sound!

[@TheFAIRLANIAC]

This video is great! I have had 6 fox bodies, and have a 25 year mustang tatoo on my arm. I can't get over these cars lol

[@imanaxbert6620]

I can't remember the last time I saw a nice fox body. The few around my town are all ragged out, faded paint & filthy. Good to see there are still some nice ones out there.

[@nedaCFilms]

+Iman Axbert Actually you are correct as most of this video footage was shot back in the '90s and early '00s lol.... although once in awhile you run across a really nice common GT or LX model, but most are stashed away in garages and only see beautiful 80-degree sunny days on Sunday lol. Chances of catching a glimpse of a '93 SVT Cobra, Saleen, SSP or other rare Fox is becoming an extremely rare sight, even at car shows.... unless you hit Mustang Week or Carlisle Events' Ford Nationals.

[@davesilva75]

I watch this video every day

[@JCKustom13]

Fox Body Mustang Generation X's muscle car Millennials' hot rod. I am 21 years old (a Chevy guy) and Generation X's muscle cars the Foxbody, the F-Bodies and the Monte Carlos have become popular among my generation. I drive an 86 Camaro IROC Z with TPI myself. A few of my friends have Fox Body's and another has a Carlo. All these cars have become the hot rods of my generation since they are cheap and have plenty of torque.

[@Kaiser187]

Nedac is obsessed with these cars so am I!

[@nedaCFilms]

Yes I really crazy about these cars... along with 3rd Gen Camaro/Firebird models, and LT1 and LS1 powered 4th Gens too as well as SN95 Mustang Cobras, New Edge Cobras and a few others, lol..... hell I love them all, lol. I love V8-Ponycars and just about any and all American Iron.

[@ItsEdGarM10]

nedaCFilms / Mustang-Town we got a 3rd gen camaro I love it 😍

[@nedaCFilms]

ItsEdgarM10 The Tuned Port Injected and L69 H.O model 3rd Gen Camaro/Firebird will always share the same special place in my heart right beside the 5.0 Fox-body Mustang. I've owned twelve 3rd Gen models since buying my first '87 Firebird Formula back in 1992, then I bought a 5.0 Mustang the following year, then went back to a L69 H.O Camaro (actually owned three L69 cars) then my first TPI car, then back to a few 5.0 Mustangs, and back and fourth through the '90s, trying to choose between a 3rd Gen F-body and 5.0 Fox Mustang is like trying to pick which of my kids I love more, lol, I always say, lol.

[@AleksSnipes]

Don't forget the Capri, the good-looking Foxbody. I've got one now (my first car was an 85 Mustang LX), and it's a blast to drive.

[@KevinMartinez-ig9os]

Love these cars man I got an 88 gt ,a 91 gt convertible nd an 88 lx nice to see guys crazy about the foxbodies as I am

[@tillman002000]

Good ol days..true hip hop and 5.0's. i got a 86..i had since 93. time to dig it out

[@mustangtony2933]

5.0's yes....hip hop no! Rock 'n Roll!!!

[@Todd.T]

Drove an 81 with a 351, a 1986 GT with ported 68 heads and ported Cobra intake with MAC headers/Borla exhaust/Roller rockers/75mmTB, drove a 1981 Cobra with a 13:1 460ci big block with ported heads / cam / intake. Anytime, anyplace you thought your GM was faster, I was there to take your money or at least take your pride. Imagine being 20 years old and getting an 87 Grand National and going street racing with all your friends and I give you a three car start and you ended up seeing the ass end of the 351 before you got out of first gear. C4 with shift kit and B&M Trick Shift. The 460 was in another dimension with it's torque levels. Used an FMX to handle it. You wouldn't expect to get spanked by an 18 year old, so if was fun.

[@itsReWorkz]

So fortunate that my father hand me down his 1991 5.0 Gt Mustang convertible and ever since he gave it to me I fell in love with it.

[@nedaCFilms]

+byy ReWorkz Wow that's great! Take good care of it man, the nice ones are getting hard to find for decent prices.

[@itsReWorkz]

+nedaCFilms / Mustang-Town of course! It's just really cool because well I'm 17 and all my friends have these new cars and just to have a classic is great.

[@markurbancowboy]

I wanted one of these so bad back in the day when they came out. One of the best Mustangs ever made in my opinion. I love the Fox Body design. Not a hole lot a hp compared to what we have today, but the 300 plus ft-lbs made them fun to drive from stoplight to stoplight back then! They are kinda hard to find now.

[@nedaCFilms]

+markurbancowboy Sounds like you lived the "Fox-body experience" too brutha, lol.... if you didn't experience the Fox-body movement "back in the day" from the mid '80s and through the '90s than they just don't understand, lol. The Fox-Mustang was/is today's '32 Ford and '55 Chevy. I feel what you are saying buddy, I was crazy about these cars from first experiencing them in the mid '80s, to first purchasing my very 1st 5.0 Mustang in the early '90s and love them just as much now as I did then, lol. They are a very special car to us Gen-X gearheads! I have a very special place in my heart for the 3rd Gen Camaro/Firebird models as well, especially the 230hp G92 optioned 5.0 Tuned Port 5-speed IROC-Z and Formula models and 245hp 5.7 Tuned Port models. My two favorite cars, the 5.0 Fox-body and 3rd Gen F-body. Still fun stoplight to stoplight runners even by today's standards, just as long as it's a short run between stoplights, lol. Thanks for stopping in and sounding off Cowboy!

[@markurbancowboy]

+nedaCFilms / Mustang-Town Oh yeah I lived it, wanted one real bad back then but didn't have the money. In my opinion they were the true muscle cars (price, power, weight, mod-ability ect). Also, the sound of that 302 5.0L in the GT or LX was intoxicating! You can hear one up the road and know exactly what it is before you even see it! Take care man!

[@jimmywest13]

I hate that the kids of the new generation have no idea what this car is and call it ugly :(

[@nedaCFilms]

I run into quite a few youngsters that love the original 5.0 Mustangs.... a have talked to a few that don't like it, but we don't talk long lol.

[@AngryVikingwGuitar]

Yeah all my peers are still going through the honda phase. They get real mad every time they get smoked by my cheap '88 notch.

[@oxyrisin]

Jimmy West The kids around here, for the most part still love them. Quite a few bad ass Fox bodies running around.

[@HotMustang]

I get scared everytime I think of the next generation forgetting what true muscle cars were back then! I even heard a 13 yr old say any mustang back then really wasn't that good of a car:( my heart sunk. but he wasn't that smart and he doesn't know anything so it doesn't matter :)

[@DemBones1012]

Jimmy West I'm 18 and I just recently bought one man I love it. never fails to put a smile on my face trust me don't lose hope. my friends are really coming around to foxs as well. it's a 89 LX convertible 5.0 just deleted the smog pump and installed a hpipe and flowmasters. next is heads and intake manifold

[@thelken]

A decade later. It's all even more true now.

[@captainhowdy9557]

The sound a 3rd gen makes is iconic . The new 5.0 sound like a import tuner

[@nedaCFilms]

Well technically the new 5.0 is two import inline 4-cylinders mated together into a V8 lol. Kinda like If you took two 2.4 VTEC engines and married them into a V design lol.

[@DieselSamurai]

I love my '91 GT 5spd, bought it many years ago and still have it to this day. Though it's missing the motor and transmission. I've got a 5.0 with GT40P heads, GT40 intake and a set of full length headers and a parts list the length of my arm and a rebuilt T5 with a Pro5.0 shifter, all waiting to be finished to go back into it. Thanks for the memories...

[@graywolfs1976]

im a foxbody lover from the start. Denver I first seen my first 5.0 in 85 . to 5.0 is the only muscle car.

[@westcoasttanker]

I love all cars especially the 60’s and could have bought one but these cars have a special place in my heart.At 44 now and being 17 when my 91 Notchback back out I’m very proud to own one.Watching these cars own back in the good old days of illegal street drags was one of the best times of my life.Took me 8 years and 4 mustangs to finally find my mint low mile notch.Absolutley love your videos man!!! Bring back so many great memories!!!!!

[@nedaCFilms]

Thanks bud! I have many vintage 5.0 Mustang videos on here...enjoy lol.

[@westcoasttanker]

Trust me I’ve watched them all several times and continue to do so,you have the best videos.Even love the old style of all your videos that makes it the best.Thanks for that!!

[@nedaCFilms]

Nasty Notch Fiveoh much of the footage was shot back in the '90s and even have some footage going back to late '80s. I was the weirdo that always brought a video camera out on saturday night lol

[@westcoasttanker]

nedaCFilms / Mustang-Town I think it’s cool not weird I wish I did that back in the day.I would had some amazing videos.Cool Stuff man.

[@SadisticStang]

Something that Fox Body says to me, besides the 80s/90s nostalgia, is the 'rural.' It's not a city car, it's a blue collar car and it conjurs up images of the midwest, graffiti under rail road overpasses, Village Pantry parking lots, local bars and a small drag strip.

[@yellowtruck2002]

Great Video John. It got me to thinking there is definitely a need and a market for a 40-60 minute video about the Fox Body Mustang. You could devote the first 10-15 minutes on the history of the car and then move in to how the car brought back the American muscle car and the effect of the aftermarket parts market and some examples of Fox muscle thrown in..........all reasonably priced, I think it would work. I think someone will one day soon!!!!

[@walterwhite6074]

Damn I love that sound. Nothin sounds like a fox.

[@nedaCFilms]

The fact that they are in the UK makes it even more badass, lol.

[@XxThatMOPARDudexX]

so true my dad and me are in the uk building a 89 vert we need a passenger side door but cant find one anywhere

[@steve1201988]

try latemodel restoration, americanmuscle.com or hell ebay they made thousands of them

[@XxThatMOPARDudexX]

thanks man been hunting for ages hope they have on that works

[@nedaCFilms]

Surely you can score a pair of doors on eBay motors super cheap.... mainly what you will pay for is shipping, but the Foxbody doors are really light compared to the same era Camaro/Firebird doors.

[@XxThatMOPARDudexX]

i cant find any anywhere i look all i need is the passenger aswell

[@ColAngus]

Foxes are one of my dream cars,gimme a hatch or convertible.

[@caseycardenas1668]

Col. Angus convertible lx's are sexy af. That is if it's 87-93. GT convertible for 79-86 styles.

[@thetoothmaster1]

I lucked out ,I bought mine from a Dr. who started making more money in his practice and bought the new 5.0 I got a 90 gt with a 1000 mile 347 stroker with afr185 heads x 303 cam ,trick flow intake msd ignition and all forged internal, and a unused zex wet kit in the box ready to hook up and a 373 rear end for 7000. I put a rebuilt t5z with a few tweaks to enhance the strength for 1000 bucks extra . I cant find much else out there that can keep up with me for 8000 dollars.

[@koretell]

Fox Bodies Kick ass.........85/86 are the sweetest.

[@nedaCFilms]

+koretell Those are my favorites! I've owned the 85 GT and the 86 GT and they will always be the Fox-models that gives me the warm & fuzzies.... with the 1986 GT being my particular favorite as I prefer EFI over carb and the '86 also had the 8.8 rear and the true duals and first year for the H-pipe design. Absolutely LOVE those '86s!

[@koretell]

@@nedaCFilms we Canadians had GT Cobra designations on our 4 eyes. My 86 gt cobra had bad idle hunt. 4 eyes forever.

[@chrisdobek1462]

I have been thinking about chasing down my fox from high school.. Goddamn I miss that thing. Watching this makes it hurt so much more

[@nedaCFilms]

+Chris Dobek I know buddy, makes you just wanna throw up don't it lol. I wish I could find my old 1986 GT that I owned back in the late '90s. I sold it in 2002 and have no idea where it is now. With the internet and eBay, it could be all the way on the other side of the country now, lol. The hurt is real, lol.

[@johnw7564]

I recently found my old foxbody from high school. I was so happy to see it had been fairly well cared for since I sold it. This one has a happy ending because the current owner told me he was thinking of selling it. We actually made a deal and now my high school ride I drove every day is sitting in my garage. It was surreal for about a year until it sunk in that I had it again. Weird as hell seeing it sitting in my garage. If you live in California I can tell you how I tracked it down. I don't know anything about other states. I used public records....

[@chrisdobek1462]

+John W I live in Oregon now, but the car will hopefully still be somewhere in Michigan. Born and raised in the suburbs of Detroit, moved out here in the last year to see what the fuss was about. Your happy ending gives me hope. I know there must be some paper work on the thing back in Michigan at my parents house. I'm asking them to look around. I know I will be able to come up with the vin, but i don't know how to track the current owner down. Isn't there some privacy issues with trying to find them online?

[@johnw7564]

+Chris Dobek If you have the VIN, that's huge. Without the VIN you really have a difficult task. Anyway I didn't run into any privacy issues in California. Per a couple of the California Vehicle Codes, some basic registration information is public record. This may be the same as other states I'm not sure. In CA you can fill out DMV form "INF 70", send in $5, and receive an ownership history of your car. Due to privacy issues you only receive a name and city of the current registered owner. But for me that was enough. I used Facebook with that info to find (and email) the owner of my car. The rest is history! :-)

[@ZacLowing]

I bought an '86 LX with the GT options fresh off the truck back then. The only option was the rear window defroster, lol. I pulled the 5.0 emblems off and raced everything I could on the streets around suburban Chicagoland. I would practice out in Busse woods by going as early in the morning as I could, drive all the way in and back out again... if I didn't see anyone in there, I knew I had the track all to myself.

[@ezcondition]

you know, it makes you feel bad in a way. they use to be everywhere and now it's like seeing Yetty when you run across a Fox rolling. it was a divider between social classes as well. the rich guys had the Camaro and the others had Mustang; above average. i'm damn determined to make a living off of this platform. i might even be buried in one.

[@junkyardking6021]

This video is iconic

[@nedaCFilms]

Thank you❤️😎

[@TheNerd345]

im a chevy guy but i always wanted a foxbody mustang

[@JoseGonzalez-pk9tv]

Great video I just got mine 1993!! Love it

[@davesilva75]

I bought a 1982 mint capri with a killer motor..sold the mustang..still loving these cars.

[@davesilva75]

[@elitecarhub2831]

Can't wait for canadian winters to be over , 88Lx Dech motorsports edition with 331 forged procharged mmm I forget about it all driving with window down love it

[@elcamino74ss]

Its nice that you can find tons of used parts for these along with new parts from sites like americanmuscle and late model restoration. So far I haven't had any issues finding stuff for my 1990 GT Convertible.

[@glahut93]

I have a 1993 svt cobra with a 680 hp procharger, bought the car new.

[@nedaCFilms]

nik mxforever Damn, I would love to shoot a video of your Cobra lol.

[@glahut93]

nedaCFilms / Mustang-Town I'm gonna do some soon and post them

[@glahut93]

I have one on my channel but is poor quality and not driving just idle

[@pimpovic2]

Stock block? Kind of doubt it...

[@1991tommygun]

i love old foxbodys and fullsize broncos

[@BROWNPRIDEFOOTBALL]

FUCKIN OG SHIT.

[@KSI_Revelations]

I love the foxbodys. I have a 91 GT that is my daily driver. Very fun to drive and they just look stunning

[@JeremyBC_]

Awesome video. I have a 91 lx hatchback 302 and I love it

[@froey198033]

I had a 86 5.0 and loved it. Just put a flowmaster exhaust a MSD ignition a after market air filter and had chrome ponys. Man I loved that car. I'm looking for one again now that my kids are older and I really just want one again. I would like to get between a 88 to 90 Fox Body notch back.

[@nedaCFilms]

Jeff Froment 1986 GT will always be my favorite!

[@froey198033]

nedaCFilms / Mustang-Town 86 GT is awesome and I loved mine and I wish I kept it. Been a Mustang guy since high school but I really didn't like the 94 body style. I did not like it at all. I like the newer style but not the 16 or 17 Stangs. I don't know it just seems Europeanish to me. I will always like the Fox Body stangs or even the Fox Body Capri if you can find em.

[@nedaCFilms]

Jeff Froment Oh I love the 5.0 Mercs!!! Man if I could get my hands on a 1986 Capri I would be in #Foxbody heaven lol.

[@talalal-balushi2072]

Loved this video bro

[@09portillo]

I don't understand how people don't like the fox body but like everything S197 and up. I've never owned a fox body but I love them and want one so bad! I like the S197 and up as well, but a clean fox is more of an eye catcher for me. Funny because I'm not even an 80s kid, I'm a 90s kid. And as a 90s kid I love the SN95! The SN has a much smaller fan base than the Mustang II lol. Thanks for the videos nedaCFilms!

[@troyshockley4569]

Foxbody Mustangs Rule. I've got a 1991 Mustang GT, 5.0 5 Spd. I'm the Second Owner it was Garage Kept Since New , Rust Free Car with Original Window Sticker, Build Sheet n All of its paperwork and Manuals From The Factory. Never Wrecked Adult Owned Since New N I Love The Car. Definitely My Keeper Car. Mustangs Rule and Chevys Druel. Loll

[@svt_spedden]

This is a great video!

[@KevinMartinez-ys3du]

I can relate to this video ive wrecked 2 foxes before but I brought my convertible gt back from the dead had front end damage but with a chain nd another foxbody we straightened It out nd now is good as newww just need to pay for the tags nd ill be back on the road again....thanks for sharing this video

[@fwh79FOXR6]

Awesome video. Plus... it's always good to see some stang on stang violence! I think it's safe to say that this gen of mustang started an EFI performance revolution. I don't think the LS1 would even exist if it wasn't for the Windsor SBF.

[@captainhowdy9557]

I never see one near my level of clean . When I do it is always special . Just like back in the day before I got mine . I graduated in 99 so I feel like I’m the end of gen x . Fox body 4 life ......

[@BigRockyD]

Great video friend. Passion

[@transrus1]

They are awesome!!

[@mattjohnston7686]

My first car was an '89 knotchback, but it was the 4 banger. I miss it though.

[@svtmustang99]

Love those fox bodys :D got 2 of my own

[@RetroHiDef]

Love coming back to watch this video. FOXBODY is SEXBODY! I recently bought a new car and I almost bought a 5.0 but I hate how damn big it is and how much body roll it has. I still have my foxbody but I purchased a new WRX instead. I needed a 4 door that was fun to drive maybe one day we'll get a foxbody sized car with a 5.0.

[@nikkiflener5305]

Awesome video I'm building a 93 cobra right now I've owned 9 foxs I'll collected them tell I die

Every time I see a cherry notchback I wish I was rich.

[@darmstrong9334]

Notchbacks with 93 cobra wheels!

[@jackrabbit7389]

positivly Legendary cars look sound had it all

[@nedaCFilms]

Yes they are... the younger generation will never understand how it was back in the '80s and early '90s. It was a great time.

[@someonewhatever611]

My first car was a 79 foxbody lx 302 notch with full vynil roof. Surprised alot of people with the grandma car. 14" steel wheels no hubcaps.

[@RetroFoxZach]

Where do you get that badass 25 year anniversary keychain shown at 0:43 in? Want one bad..

[@jackrabbit7389]

Only latemodel vehical with a soul fox body is legendary

[@christopherwalker6056]

That blue GT at 2:29 is the most beautiful, awesome color of blue I've ever seen! I absolutely love that shade of blue. It's kind of a midnight blue, maybe slightly metallic. I'm guessing that is an aftermarket paint job, I don't think they had that color stock. I want a 90-92 GT in that color. Gorgeous.

[@RhettJH]

Christopher Walker They actually did that color on the 1993 Cobras. Its more of a teal over blue. I like it alot myself too.

[@andersonsspeedshop3051]

+Christopher Walker reef blue I believe, almost as good as calypso green

[@miajones1938]

I live in UK and I love this car, I had to like and subscribe sir true classic and that American v8 let's not into that ☺☺☺

[@georgeursitti6549]

Love my cabaret red 87 5sp t-top beauty...

[@florimshala1]

I had a brand new 1991 GT in my 2nd year of high school boy i was hated by everyone. Used to call my car fix or repair daily but it never broke down

[@fosho5.079]

yes the fox how i love them so

[@seanraymotorsports2960]

Represent FoxLife I recently bout a 86 Capri with a 91 maf 5.0 allready had the front clip of a 87 and I recently installed the matching bumper and tails still has those cool rear quarters so I named it the mercstang it’s a 5speed with a few bolt ons these cars feel way faster then what it says on paper mine weights 2900lbsi it’s a 13 second ride can maybe sneak past a newer 5.0 with a yuppie driver ya got nothing to lose driving these bad boys, confidence killas I say I beat my buddy in a infinity g37x from a 40mph roll he was shocked him having 330hp and me with 225 maybe. But when you weigh 3700lbs that’s the difference these old 5.0’s ain’t out of the spot light yet. ~Quikray~

[@nedaCFilms]

1986 Capri is one of my favorite models!
