My $3,500 Foxbody Mustang was a $50,000 Financial MISTAKE
Here’s how my $3,500 USD 1987 Foxbody Mustang GT turned into a $50,000+ Foxbody Mustang GT. I just wanted to fix a couple engine leaks and I ended up with a fully restored car. My new wheels are Maker's Garage Reimagined Classic's in 4 bolt 18x8.5 and 18x9.5 with a 245/40/18 and 275/35/18 Continental ExtremeContact Sport 02.

    Im torn on the wheels, draglites are way too cool on foxbodies, but those new wheels look oem+ which is my other auto fetish lol. Supercharge it. Turbos are sweet, but in ontario its way too easy to lose your license, and it sucks not being able to even spool up without looking around for heat first. You can still have a good ET, cool noises, and more fun at mosport and on ontario streets where you can lose your license for shifting too high in the rpms.

I also have a velocity yellow C6 Z06 corvette and I absolutely love mine as well. I really would love to know where you got the work done on your car, what you got done and if you would recommend others to go where you went. There is a corvette place near me but they're rip offs. Anyway I would really love to have a chat with you. Hope you get back to me. Also if you really want to see what your car can do at the track with a set of slicks then I would give you mine.

    This doesnt make sense. Those were clearly RPM/Frankenstien heads.

I dont think this is fair to Race Proven Motorsports to bash their heads without an explaination of what happened.

  • @TheNova64000
    @TheNova64000 Před 2 dny

    As much as I love my 64 Nova, part of me thinks that hobby cars are a lousy investment from a financial standpoint. Unless it is something really rare, you usually end up with more money in it than you can sell it for. I bought my car as a teenager with a 3k budget. If I had more money to spend upfront on a project car, I could have bought a car that was a better starting point and saved in the long run. Now that I have alot of money tied up in it years later, I sometimes think that it would have been cheaper to buy a finished car to start with than to build my car. lol

    I am 15 seconds in, and I already agree with you. Thus, why I haven't rushed to buy a foxbody.

Nothing is more depressing than having a hot rod that you can't modify or work on because you your money went into just purchasing the car.
