if u just want the 5.0 u can look at older town card n grand marquis but the performance is nowhere near the mustang. they just use the same 5.0

[@michaelgtrxu1683]

What people don't realise is that the whole idea of these older and maybe more simplistic cars is to modify them and build them up into your own personalised vehicle which suits your needs. The fox body, along with some other common rear wheel drive vehicles of the same era, are fantastic platforms which can be built up almost like lego. Superior components from other cars can be utilised along with a myriad of aftermarket parts. The design of the fox body (and other 80's boxy cars) is strange because while not following the usual misconception of what makes a car "pretty", it almost stands alone, presenting its own unique definition of what makes a good looking car.

[@anthonygato407]

realized the design was 4 d chess. small car with big engine. excellent.

[@xaphan8581]

Like if you look at any drag race event most common car is this style mustang and it’s because the measurement from the back of the engine to the rear diff.

The 500hp limit only applies to the thin wall casting high output roller blocks. The old flat tappet blocks have thicker walls and are heavier as a result. There's a rumor that the roller blocks made in Mexico are thicker than the american ones. By the way, the 351 windsor is a hell of a lot stronger and pretty much a bolt in swap.

[@urdaddywingnut7820]

ziah Reid-- Yealp, they are- as long as you remember either drop mounts or a cowl hood for the 351 to make up for the bit of height difference

[@DucatiPaso750]

My understanding is that the Mexican cast Windsor's do have the thicker castings. They are heavier.

[@girthquake1413]

I genuinely don't understand why someone would pick a 302 over a 351. The latter weighs nearly the same and even takes the same parts, but produces more power no matter what you're doing more reliably.

[@Sheehy223]

@@girthquake1413 Displacement restrictions for certain types of racing is a reason. A 302 in good running condition is also a lot easier to find than a 351 in good running condition, and likely going to be a lot cheaper as they are much more plentiful and were made much more recently. Smaller displacement engines also have the capacity to rev a lot higher and quicker than larger displacement engines generally because of a combination of a shorter stroke and lighter pistons, so if you're building a naturally aspirated engine, something smaller than a 351 may be a more desirable option. This is also why some people will chose to build 4.8 GM truck blocks over 5.3's, you can get them to rev higher. And if budget isn't a huge priority, Dart Windsor blocks are the shit. They're way stronger than any factory Ford block, you can specify them to basically any displacement you want up to just over 400 cubes I believe, and you can chose between iron and aluminum. They're fantastic.

[@LITTLE1994]

Yeah, it's much preferred to use a larger engine. Plus, it's a myth.

[@davenhla8195]

First, the Windsor 5.0 was in the 94 and 95 SN95 Mustangs. They also continued production in explorers etc until 2003 I think. IMO, a lot of the comments about the looks of the Fox Mustangs are a little off base, it was certainly not ugly by the standards of its release in 1979, or at least it's sales numbers would argue the point. It was the stoplight drag race king for pretty much all of the 80's and into the 90's, which was both fun for it's owners but also garnered a seething, quiet butthurt jealousy in the 90's kids, combined with the state of market in late 90's meant "Honda Civic VTEK" and the rest of the ricer scene mostly because the Fox cars held their value through the 90's and the kids couldn't afford one. At least that's what happened around my part of the woods. As to the Mercury Capri: it didn't sell because it cost more and was the same car, essentially. However, if you find one with the factory hood scoop and front ground effects including, and especially, the more traditional grill, it is the closest thing to an early 70's muscle car you will find, appearence wise, in an 80's Ford. I had the pleasure of owning one some time ago in which I had swapped a slightly built 351W(it fit because the factory scoop allowed for hood clearance). Poor, poor 85mph speedo. Ford guys were so pissed, for YEARS that they couldn't get a 351 in those cars from the factory. I can say, after owning one, I can understand why Ford did not want to unleash that onto the public. That said, these cars have the following they do because of the ability to customize them like no other vehicle on the road, before, or I would say even after, through simple bolt on parts(for the most part). In it's stock form it was a fun car, beyond that the sky was the limit compared to pretty much anything else at the time, even engine swaps were on the table and not overly complicated. Local guy even dropped a 460 big block in a notchback when i was in highschool. Got kicked out of the strip for safety violations when he did under 9 seconds lol. Like them or not, these cars were the benchmark of the street for almost 2 decades.

[@11dmills]

I love my Fox body, it's probably not the best first car, there's probably an argument for it being the worst but it's such a fun car and even though mine looks like it should be in a junkyard I still get reactions of "I had one in high school, I love those cars" hell my mom had a 4 banger in my very early childhood and she loves mine because she always wanted a 5-speed 5.0 but by the time the price had gone down she had 2 kids and not enough reason for one, Fox body's will always hold and special place on my heart, whether it's because it's my first car or because of the actual car, only time will tell.

In a nutshell, they were the right car at the right time in 1974 - smaller and lighter with no V8 just as the gas crunch hit, and the Ghia notchback nailed the red-hot personal luxury aesthetic like no other small car. But it aged poorly.

I think what you said about "How much before you've built a new car and stops becoming that make and model", really applies to a lot of the vintage muscle car community, you've done an amazing job on your falcon and you've still kept the essence and personality of the car. Pick up any issue of super chevy or fast fords and usually you'll see a frame off 'resto-mod' coverage of somebody who has way too much money that's replaced everything and has a tasteless interior and just trying to win some face time before they croak. Classic car is honestly isn't the right term anymore. Great video!

My dad had a 1987 foxbody mustang gt,and he loved it to death,he said it was probably the fastest car he ever owned,he loved that thing to death and he regrets selling it every day because it was an amazing car,he always told me stories about his runs on the interstate and working on it at 4am and going to bed exhausted and covered in grease,it was those stories that made me love cars,it was his love for the foxbody that transcended him and moved to me,that's why I'll always respect and love foxbodies,because I owe it my life,because without cars,I don't know where I would be today

[@larrylentini5688]

Still waiting for small dog review!

[@logancrow5762]

The Ship of Theseus Paradox is something I've thought of a lot. I plan on replacing/upgrading all the stock suspension, complete rebuild and performance upgrade on the engine, aswell as all new transmission/rear end. Not much factory Mustang is going to be left in my car.

[@urdaddywingnut7820]

Logan Crow-- After all that, you should strip down the Stang from the A-pillars forward, then mount a Thunderchicken front end.. .always wanted to see somebody wit nuggets big enough to do it! Lolz

[@JohnSmith-wx9wj]

@@urdaddywingnut7820 My dad did it. Lol. Took him two winters.

[@roddygonzalez2017]

This is my dream car. God I really wish I had the money to get one (that's actually in good condition)

[@b.p.879]

I grew up in Hueytown AL, and was a teenager in the 90's. So many Fox Body's and IROC's everywhere back then. Races every night!

[@loganprice3218]

And the engine they used in the 4 banger was synonymous with the mazda/ford ranger. Just like Nissans solution for a rear drive coupe with the 240. Put a truck motor in it!

[@ramrod126]

My first car was a '79 Cobra....really wish i still had that car.

[@jjjss4905]

Justin Updyke had it from new for 20 years, great and very fast car for that era

[@3.2Carrera]

Great video as usual. I graduated high school in '91 and a whole bunch of us walked into the Ford dealership in late '89 and bought a fleet of 1990's. I think I paid $12,400 for my GT. Lots of fun times, but the car tried to kill me several times under- steering into turns or having the brakes boil over. The only cars that could beat me on the street was the GN and C4 Vette. GM Gen II & III F bodies were a piece of cake. But speaking of the C4, it's incredible to think they are in the same price range as the Fox Mustang.

[@dillydean]

this is super interesting iv always found the fox body really cool and different. always love your videos. merry Christmas as well from Australia mate 😘

[@leksasdf]

Fuck yeah longer videos!

[@Rakku1997]

Nice. Still waiting for the review of the 1-st gen Ford Probe tho.

[@johnmick9457]

I bought a brand new 85 GT which was one of the first with throttle body fuel injection for the 5.0 V8. It was a great reliable car totally stock it would trip the lights in the quarter mile at around 14.70's so for the time was okay fast. Long road trips were comfortable and the hatch with the fold down rear seats provided quite a lot of trunk space. Handling was good but you still had to add weight in the rear in snow and ice. I paid just over 10K in March of 85 and it was worth every penny.

I'm new to the channel and I love the subtle humor!

[@pbfloyd13]

Someone get this man a VW beetle to review!

[@ilovepandas1246]

He did already. New York auto show part 3

[@pbfloyd13]

Alexander Coldfur Yeah but for a stand alone review or at least a POV.

[@sadladd]

Old Beetle, or New Beetle, or new New Beetle?

[@ilovepandas1246]

Custom Old Beetle.

[@misdelivereddishwasher1011]

*ALL*

[@Kingvalles]

isn't there a saleen fox body

[@l337pwnage]

I'm pretty sure there was. I know I saw Fox body at a car event that had somebodies name stitched all over it. It was so long ago that I can't say for sure it was Saleen.

[@TheBrokenLife]

Yes. All the way back to '84 there have been Saleen Mustangs.

[@andrewbartleman9169]

Anthony Valles turbo 2.3 svo

[@w33b3l]

I know this is a year old but.. Saleen Fox bodies where actually just 5.0 LX Mustangs with a body kit. LX because it was lighter than a GT mostly. They looked really nice, however performance wise they where the same as a stock car because Saleen didn't do any performance mods for some reason.

[@carsandquads7253]

w33b3l some were actually supercharged I almost bought one after I wrecked my 88 5.0 and it was supercharged but sadly I settled on a 4.0 v6 until I get a new 5.0 here soon also if you didn't know ( I didn't know before me and dad found it) there were also gt350 foxbodies from 84 me and dad recently bought one and are working on it together

[@aniquinstark4347]

I consider this episode to be the Regular Cars magnum opus. It should be in the library of congress.

[@Wanderer25]

This is probably the greatest review ever. Genius, pure genius lol

[@natemars9258]

Great video as always

[@teph1256]

Did it "transcended" the mustang name or never earned it in the first place?

[@InvictvsNox]

Great question. I was only just born when the Fox Body came into its own, so I can't speak from experience... but my lack of experience just might be why I covet the Fox Body so much. It's so deliciously a e s t h e t i c.

[@prophetmaster1708]

Teph transcend you mean?

[@Billybob5766]

zip disks are the f u t u r e

[@optimusboy1]

Teph the foxbody is the only one you dont see wrecking into crowd because of idiot drivers nowadays

[@zrowe94]

Teph the foxbody has the more character than all the cookie cutter mustangs every middle aged mom drives daily. Fox bodies are awesome, ive had mine for 3 years and cant imagine ever selling it

[@RocketJohn]

Best Review ever by RCR. Thank you!

[@teddieteddie7535]

Great video on a cool pair of cars!
