Tommy you better not quit on me! Damnit everybody from my childhood to my adulthood has either retired or passed on. Please don't be next!

[@257Tony]

You can tell this is a Pre-Covid video, Foxbody Mustangs definitely not cheap to get into anymore :D

[@Beebop-ow9ge]

No kidding, where I live in Canada a car of similar condition I’ve seen for sale anywhere from 8000-20,000

[@ShaunHensley]

They haven’t been for a very long time.

[@NudaMan]

I found a one on fb marketplace like a month ago from the original owner w/ low miles all stock, dude was only asking like 11-12k lol too bad I bought a motorcycle for my commute instead 🥲

[@GuitaristJeimuzu]

They say multiple times this car is 34 years old. This episode is from 2024.

[@evenflow36]

@257Tony It is a convertible, the least popular and least expensive of all foxbody models.

[@KE0ZCO]

Thank you Tommy, for taking the time to give us some of the details for the pro tips.

[@Backwoods_870]

That Tennessee scenery is beautiful

[@oprecourt]

Finding a foxbody (5.0) that you can drive, for a couple grand is a thing of the past

[@MrBlackbutang]

Foxbody furever ❤❤❤❤🏁

[@jenseninterceptors]

Tommy is being so mean to the new guy!!! ((( LOL

[@evenflow36]

They just built a n/a 460 on engine power 535/560 they should drop that in there.

[@MHolt3573]

These shows have a high turn over with host

[@Axr24have]

Good project car guys. Get r done, even Tommy might like it. 😊

[@vickypratamaputra4363]

Wild Stallion

[@wudznutt6732]

Some people don't like work but the Fox body has the room to repower it with anything. Even a a miserable as LS.

[@raylongLong]

It’s not LS build.. 410 Windsor. The LS is for the truck.

[@gearhead682010]

LS garbage is for chevy garbage, never in a Ford

[@AutoYoung]

1:25 Was Tommy busy at the shop or did he sell it to y'all?! 😂😂😂

[@MrBlackbutang]

What happened the 460 red foxbody? 😮

[@melvinholcer4756]

They all have issues when they get some age to them.Doesn’t matter if it’s a Ford ,GM,or Chrysler.

[@mccoyji]

I hope it's a 5 speed

[@WielderOfTheFlameOfAnor]

Someone tell Peyton it's okay to open your mouth when you talk.. dude sounds like he's recovering from dental surgery.

[@johnjacobjingle846]

Hey Peyton, you’re doing great brother, everyone’s got an opinion, enjoyed watching!

[@19chev81]

Have you ever been on a tv show with cameras in your face? Its awkward to start with....and hard to act normal.....ive been there and done that

[@brucesvt96]

What suspension are you going to be putting in it ?

[@dodgeguyz]

One thing that bugs me with this video. They are chipping up everything to remove it. If that exhaust was original that would be worth some money eventually to someone wanting to restore one of these. Yes that day is coming. You’ve got to look ahead. I’ve got 2 set sets of OEM headers, 2 air boxes. As well as a few other stock items. Those are going to be gold soon as almost everyone, including me, removed them for aftermarket items. Keeping the old stuff intact is worth the time to do it.

[@P.E.O.ll-RhodesScholarGraduate]

10:45 A WideBody vehicle is a TA/TA2 race car which was adjudicated in the US courts for future use in Kitt Karr's manuscript standard automotive designs. What you are putting on that FoxBody is called " Finder Flares. " 🧐 IBM Black Project Department/Top Secret FairLady Race Program engineer for the United States (Watkins Glen/VIR). I own the rights to the word/name " WideBody. " ✌️

[@PANTYEATR1]

Come'on guys, put some more country in your documentary... It's Chevy Camarah! 😏

[@nogoodusername3423]

Old 1999 to 2004 v6 400,000 miles rust free it cheap for LS swap or if have bigger budget Ford in Ford yes easy to get cheap to build unless you ford race not cheap anymore

[@huntercolby9143]

Not hating on fox bodies because I’m a real fan of the turbo svo’s and the cobras but I’m sorry the peak build for me has to be the sidewinder cobra you guys did. Another high powered Windsor in a fox is just a lesser sequel in my opinion. Appreciate the content as always, keep on wrenching boys.

[@brandond6724]

Sidewinder was definetly a favorite build of mine as well

[@AutoYoung]

Sidewinder was my favorite all out Fox build they did but Dark Horse was cool too cuz it was a more realistic, daily driver/ fun car…

[@indio1907]

This is the only show I haven’t seen DEI makes its way into it. Apparently there isn’t enough interest to get some minorities as hosts.

[@stevesmith2155]

These shows are years old,where are the new shows.

[@platinumwearer20]

This one is brand new

[@mccoyji]

How much you pay for that ragtop?

[@johnt4798]

You found one for 500 bucks it must be tore all to pieces cause you can't buy one in far condition for for less than 3 grand

[@ShaunHensley]

Lots of DMV hassle

[@eekay3646]

Vanilla Ice....

[@Brutalford]

I wonder how many of you guys actually know why the bolts on a flywheel and crankshaft are specifically designed to go only one way.. Alrighty, I'll tell you why it's because the engine is designed to position itself. When it turns off that the starter always uses the exact 4 points of the flywheel teeth to start the engine, so if you ever have a problem where the teeth on your flywheel are broken. You can simply take your Ring gear, break it, loose, rotate it ninety degrees and reInstall it, and weld it That way, it can restart on a fresh set of teeth!

[@nickp6472]

Close, but way off. Must be trolling. Stock 5.0 is externally balanced, so the flywheel must be installed in one orientation to the crankshaft to keep the engine balanced.

[@jayroberts636]

A couple grand for a foxbody ya right maybe an sn~95 for a couple grand that’s drivable is more realistic

[@2camsam]

You get a fox body because you want to shift gears

[@swmann2]

I saw the LS motor and stopped watching. Hopefully it's not too late to return it to Walmart or exchange it.

[@Brutalford]

What are you talking about? You do realize that's a 351w to a 408 stroker...not an ls

[@GuitaristJeimuzu]

The LS shows up 16 minutes into the 21 minute video and it's not even involving the mustang. Did you actually watch any of this?

[@AutoYoung]

Are you really that slow? After they showed the engine going in the Mustang you change because you saw an LS? Did you forget they have a Chevy II project on the lift dummy?!

[@MauroGomez-de5iy]

90 25th anniversary

[@ridemotoeveryday]

1989 1/2 is actually the 25th anniversary. I own one.

[@johnself4437]

@@ridemotoeveryday ask some guys with 90s they should have the 25 anniversary badge as we'll passenger side dash pony emblem. Memory serves me they had them on 89 and 90 model years.

[@ridemotoeveryday]

@@johnself4437 ok nice, didn’t know that. I honestly don’t know what is different from the GT except for the badge lol.

[@johnself4437]

@@ridemotoeveryday every 25 anniversary seem faster to me to I don't know if it secretly came with a bigger gear or what. I was the 86 fan love the two worlds colliding four eye and fuel injection. Only years I had. My friend still has his 90 since 93 and never drives it .

[@ridemotoeveryday]

@@johnself4437 good to know. Mine is completely gutted except for dash and headliner lol. Gear change etc. So hard to compare.

[@ridemotoeveryday]

I would love to see an aluminum big bore n/a sbf with the 302 stroke. 8k screamer!

[@williampalmer8052]

You scared me with that LS segment at the end. Thankfully it's not going anywhere near the Mustang. I really think it's a bad idea to mix your content like this. I know I stopped watching at 11:00 which can't be good for your channel's KZbin metrics.

[@Harley.Davidson]

😂

[@tomhamilton9140]

Disgusting Trojan Horse Build. 💩 Destroyed a Mustang.

[@DrewBe59635]

Agreed. Wash that mustang off. It is like getting DeaWoo on your hands. Ask Queen Latifah about that.

[@msethhunter]

Really….a convertible? Did you buy that for your girlfriend?

[@tonyoliver5537]

Fox body name comes from Volkswagen the Volkswagen Fox different car companies copied the Fox frame but making their version rear wheel drive instead of front wheel drive like Volkswagen.

[@LeachimSagrav333]

Another ls build...boring

[@swmann2]

Ya for real

[@brianwickam4806]

Except it's a Windsor and not an ls

[@AR_420]

Thank you for helping the mentally challenged 😊😅​@brianwickam4806

[@AR_420]

Except you didn't actually watch the video. I'd imagine people don'ttake you seriously😂,​@brianwickam4806

[@brianwickam4806]

@AR_420 I did watch the video and he could have simply misspoke since at the very beginning that talked about the Windsor. cause the ls was for a different project so again it's a Windsor going into the fox body

[@wkjeeping9053]

I hate those
