They Are Still Out There! - Original "Stock" 5.0 V8 1993 Foxbody Mustang

[@details78]

6:16 Is that an old Electrolux house vacuum? Talk about originality from the 80s and 90s! 😊😊

[@PuristMotorsports]

🤣🤣😂 it is!! From 1983. I inherited that from my Mom. It’s perfect for cleaning inside the cars with the attachments.

[@details78]

@@PuristMotorsports ❤ I was born in 78. My folks paid like $500 for one back in 86. Roughly equivalent to $1500 today. From a door to door salesperson, no less. My last house vac I paid $60 at WalMart. Quality not nearly the same though. Unreal times.

[@PuristMotorsports]

I think my grandmother bought one for herself and her three children that year. Same situation. Door to door sales.

[@joe2825]

Still out there. 60yr old guy I worked with bought a 89 White GT, t top brand new. It has 23k miles on it and original plugs, bone stock. He doesn't take care of it at all, he smokes in it, never cleaned interior, rarely washes it. Had no idea of the value. It just sits in his garage. It runs great though, he tossed me the keys a few times (I had a 93 cobra at the time). He lives down the road from my house still so maybe I'll try again to buy it.

[@PuristMotorsports]

Sounds like you need to continue conversations with him. Definitely a cool car! T tops are awesome.

[@cars-cannibis101]

I just found a 88 that was sitting in a guys garage... hasn't been on Rd since 98🤙

[@PuristMotorsports]

Start conversation with them. Maybe try to help them get it running?

[@midnight347]

That shirt is awesome I want one with the tr6060 6 speed pattern because I'm an 07 gt500 owner. Save the manuals.

[@PuristMotorsports]

🤔 I’ll see if I can make one up like that. The shirt replicates the Saleen 5 speed shift knob they used. They can be found here. puristmotorsports.com/shop/

[@brandonknight7240]

I like silver too, i just painted my 88 LX black i went back and forth on black or silver but settled on black but its really really hard to keep clean, i put a cervini 1.5" hood on mine

[@PuristMotorsports]

Black is gorgeous when it is clean. But it shows everything. I toggle between silver, black and red these days. Blue was my favorite for a long time too.

[@ViperKeeper2070]

I think the working ashtray lid is the biggest anomaly lol

[@PuristMotorsports]

Right!?? I won’t lie, I’ve flipped it several times in awe. 😂

[@truexkev2737]

Looking forward to this if you’ll be dropping content of it lol

[@PuristMotorsports]

Oh, there’s definitely more to come on this one. Currently gathering parts for the build.

[@musclecarczarig4003]

Those headlights and Weld wheels probably made most people assume it was another modded and beat to death Fox. Nice score!

[@PuristMotorsports]

Thanks! The owner swapped to welds less than a month before I bought it. The guy I bought it from was a great guy. He didn’t do the one piece headlights the second owner did.

[@CalypsoCoyote]

Bob put some Alteeza taillights on it. Also that incon tt system

[@PuristMotorsports]

Altezza… 🤣😆🤢🤮🤮

[@chriswhitehouse9764]

I can't wait to see what you do with this Bob!

[@myeighty-nine7813]

Nice! yeah those one piece head lights are just wrong lol

[@PuristMotorsports]

My man! 🙌🍻

[@drugmoney4996]

I don't get the hate with the one piece headlights, I think they look a lot cleaner than stock. They are a pain to adjust the bulbs.

[@PuristMotorsports]

I can see that perspective. Cleaner lines. But I think the problem is that the design and quality of the product comes into play for me. They don’t look great and are very cheaply made. Plus, you have to cut connectors off the factory wiring and replace them with cheaper connectors.

[@midnight347]

I like stock style that are smoked but not dark smoke just regular smoke but with clear corners I think that looks clean.

[@chrisbagley3539]

Nice car!

[@pbmbrent]

Nice find! I've Been looking for a reasonable auto 5.0 car, they are definitely hard to find. I agree hate the one piece headlights.

[@PuristMotorsports]

They are out there but you have to kick over a lot of rocks. I was lucky to find all that I wanted minus a 5 speed. Best of luck in your hunt.

[@miggleru3670]

@@PuristMotorsports hey could you made a video on what to look out for when buying a fox. Im 24 am I really want a fox but I don’t know too much when it comes to buying one

[@PuristMotorsports]

@miggleru3670 I’ve given it some thought but there are a bunch of them on KZbin. Were you wanting my perspective?

[@saleen88-049]

Nice LX, looking forward to seeing that progress. The one true stock part that is probably impossible to find is the air intake ‘silencer’ in the inner fender. Nobody kept that thing.

[@PuristMotorsports]

This car still has it. 😂

[@281cobracar7]

I have saleen 89-342 still has stock air intake. Also has cobra intake, 24 lb injectors, bullet MAF, ported stock heads, 1.72 roller rockers, cam and full exhaust but stock air intake silencer. 😊

[@erictenbensel6590]

High Five on those obnoxious head lights

[@PuristMotorsports]

🙌 They gotta go man. Next thing on the list to change back to stock.

[@edwardthayer9386]

There's plenty of them out there. They are popping up with the high prices. I got lucky with my 91 Titanium Frost GT with Black Interior with 7 thousand original miles. I tried buying for years. For more then it was worth, it was always no. Then a friend called to let me know the guy was getting divorced and he was looking for me. It was delivered on a trailer that night for alot less then I offered him originally. 1 piece headlights should be a crime!

[@PuristMotorsports]

One piece headlights make me think of Squints in The Sand Lot. These massively ugly large frame glasses on that kid. Just look at the black surround on the one piece in this video and you’ll laugh. So ugly! They are just a cheap option for replacement.

[@davidsellars84]

You said you are going to modify it… period correct racer?

[@PuristMotorsports]

This one is a street car project. Love the silver!!

[@davehewitt820]

Agree, those headlights are horrible

[@Hammerback0]

I rent my house, in the garage there is a completely stock 5.0 GT that’s been setting there for, I know 8 years. Looks like the trans has a leak, it just sets there. Owner said he wants to give it to his son, his son is now in his 20s and has ZERO interest in the car. Sad. Edit: those headlights look like a bag of ass. 😂

[@PuristMotorsports]

Bag of ass…. I’m dying laughing. 😂🤣😂🤣😂 I know of a couple of other people who saved cars for their kids and their kids have no interest at all in them.

[@gdb5448]

Back in 2002 my brother had a super clean 1993 LX sedan 5.0 5 speed in Silver with black interior. I'm sure that combo is rare as hens teeth. Car looked 100% stock inside and out except for 1993 Cobra wheels...but it had a fully forged 306, heads, cam, long tubes and a Paxton Novi 2000...car was a beast and a total sleeper.

[@PuristMotorsports]

That silver is one I considered but it’s more muted than the 93 because it’s a Titanium Frost and it does look like frost. I bet you’re right, that one has to be a rare combo. And black interior looks killer with silver.

[@jamesobrien9488]

I appreciate you and your passion? But stop with the "chasing classic cars shit"!! Won't you say what you paid??..c-mon man share?

[@PuristMotorsports]

I made an agreement between the previous owner and I on not discussing it. Staying true to my word. I did mention “under 10k” in the video.
