I bought an $85k 90s ICON for DIRT CHEAP | New major project car build! 😎✌️

[@cjzeppy]

I’m glad to be one of the four followers who support this project. Might be my time to shine as the garage body shop guru helping to make it LOOK like a mustang. 😍

[@PoorManMods]

Yessssss 🤟🤙😎

[@xajhall]

we are so back

[@PoorManMods]

I never left! 🤙😎

[@micahhill4786]

Put a Coyote 5.0 in it and somehow some way get the roush mufflers on that car to make it sound like a Mustang. It would be sweet, I know the coyote are expensive right now.😂

[@PoorManMods]

Hahaha that would be siickkkk but noo 😅

[@siqsteen]

everythings expensive tbh lol

[@PoorManMods]

@@siqsteen yeahhhhh :(

[@michealrobinson]

I love this idea! Can't wait to see this all come together.

[@PoorManMods]

heck yeah thank you! :D

[@NARFALICIOUS]

We have similar tastes in car bodies. For a time I wanted an early 90s SL300 with manual.

[@PoorManMods]

I definitely have a thing for square vehicles 😆 I'd love if this was a manual for its current setup, but for "drag racing" it makes most sense to keep it auto

[@HeyMK3Guy]

One of four checking in and ready for the ride!

[@PoorManMods]

Yess thank you!

[@jacksin3323]

Dude this is gonna be nuts. Always liked these, and never correlated that its luke a fox (one of my top 10)... GLAD youre gonna gut it of the insane german clockmaker complexity. LET THIS MAN COOK.

[@PoorManMods]

@@jacksin3323 heck yeah thank you so much, glad you're looking forward to it also, I can't wait to make progress on it 😁🤟

[@jacksin3323]

@@PoorManMods im in the middle of a 1j build to swap into my 88 supra, and i love a good swap series... get it, dude. Lets build some cars!

[@PoorManMods]

@@jacksin3323 hell yeah let's do it!

[@sbennett1320]

You got a great channel. I wish you'd post more content.

[@PoorManMods]

Thank you! 🙏😁 KZbin throttles my channel so you likely wouldn't see my new content anyway, but I'll try to post more!

[@RingoTTV]

Mercedes guy here. I love seeing swapped Mercedes more than anything 😂

[@PoorManMods]

Haha yesss!!!

[@Typical_Garage]

Had me at making it as foxbody as possible. Lost me when you said it’ll make more than 200hp

[@PoorManMods]

Hahah 😂😂😂😂

[@leewyrick5233]

careful changing those seats. We are bigger dudes. Already not a lot of room for us and safely mounting a different seat as well as having room is not going to be easy. Those seats are heavy but they also are award winning for good reason. I will be religiously watching this build!

[@RazoE]

I'm your number 3 follower 👍🏼

[@PoorManMods]

hahah yesssssss

[@BIGFESH]

you had me at "hog ass cam...." HELL YEA BROTHER those old stangs sound awesome with a big ass cam in it. you need to talk to chad or harry dehoff them boys had some bad stangs back in the day.

[@PoorManMods]

Helll yeahhhh 🤙🤙😎

[@leewyrick5233]

BTW, the ones with the v12 have a slightly longer hood and fenders, so the v8 does have less room, but it shouldnt matter for your build.

[@PoorManMods]

@@leewyrick5233 interesting didn't know that, thanks! But you're right, the engine im eventually doing will be a pushrod engine which will take up less room, theoretically anyway

[@01FozzyS]

Man that thing is clean! Freddy the Baller! Looking forward to this. Then you can race Tony Angelo and his Benz. 🤣

[@PoorManMods]

It's stupid clean right?!? Haha racing Tont would be sick!

[@AUDITHISWORLD69]

The Mercstang gt500? 👀

[@PoorManMods]

haha i like your thinking ✌

[@ryanh1444]

LOL the intro

[@PoorManMods]

😅😅

[@xninja166x]

Das Merstang Fuchskörper!

[@PoorManMods]

Yes!!

[@dorian8876]

cooool !

[@PoorManMods]

Thanks!

[@carlosgarza4089]

As one of the 4 people who watch. I approve.

[@PoorManMods]

haha yess! thank you!!

[@shelvins1841]

You need a matching teal mk3

[@PoorManMods]

Haha nah, I like my diversity, I hated having a silver ISF and IS300

[@Chambers45]

Ohh hell yea!

[@PoorManMods]

Yesss 🤙😎

[@danrooney3704]

Can't call it a mustang unless you take it crowd surfing

[@PoorManMods]

🤣🤣

[@mattkulesza7766]

Mark would say to put a 5.0 in it! 😂

[@PoorManMods]

Haha right? 😂

[@Ironsights85]

haha! thats tremendious!

[@PoorManMods]

Hahaha 😁🤟

[@hachiback6018]

Race car!

[@PoorManMods]

Heck yeah!

[@heyhayhay247]

In a year, I'm guessing you won't swap it; you'll like it too much and maybe throw on a set of twins

[@PoorManMods]

@@heyhayhay247 absolutely not, whether it takes a year or 2 or whatever, it's getting swapped unless someone buys the car from me for a ridiculous price

[@tinystar3010]

Definitely didn't think of this car once as a 90s icon lol I expected you maybe bought a NSX and planned to restore it.

[@PoorManMods]

Omg an NSX I wish!! 😍 Both are out of my budget but I actually prefer the new NSX, I LOVE LOVE LOVE IT

[@tinystar3010]

​@PoorManMods When I saw it was a merc, i was noping out, but when u said you're gonna bastardize it, I'm all in lol And yeah I'd love a NA1 or NA2 NSX! I'm still not a fan of the modern redesigned one tho

[@PoorManMods]

@@tinystar3010 hahah im glad you're interested in the build, hope i can make it fun and interesting 😁🤟
