I had posted a few pics of this in another post a few weeks back. It was about how some guys are putting lots of money into fox's and having them completely re-done. Most thought it was dumb, and listed things they felt the money would be better spent. But some of you agreed and said that there are guys out there who have a huge love for these cars and will put alot of coin behind them.....even though the value just isn't worth it.
Well.....some of us love em just that much. Here are some pics of one we are almost complete with.
