Foxy Green Foxbody Build

Here's where she's currently sitting after transport across the country. Now it's a real cluster fuck covered in salt and road shit.

Ultimately, everything has to come back out, get cleaned, re checked, painted, un fucked, etc.

That look like very roomy shop it looks nice sitting there
 
lucky you had a 1/4" dust before the trip...
 
Got under the car today for the first time since transport.

It's fucking destroyed. Every single nut, bolt, piece of metal, painted or not, has rust or oxidation. The rotors are fucking toast. Engine looks like dog shit.

Un fucking real. I think I'll go back to not touching this car again. Im fucking pissed. Fuck that stupid cunt.
 
why would you let her tow it open trailer in winter conditions?

It will help when you drive it knowing that beating on it will be no big deal.
 

Put this in a spray bottle. Mist it on the rusty stuff. Not joking, it actually works.

Thanks. Going to rip the engine and trans out and try this shit on everything. Probably have to paint the block. Im glad I put the spark plugs in it, god knows how bad the cylinder walls will still be though.
 
Listen Francis, take the fucking tampon out of your ass put it back in your mouth so you shut the fuck up and hose the underside of that bitch with WD-40. Just dont fucking worry about the rust on the rotors when you step on the brakes, it'll come off and get the motherfucker running.
 
She's up on blocks again, engine out.

Step 1: Working on getting rid of the rust wherever i can

Step 2: finish running brake lines/components

Step 3: repaint under car where i had to sand down and remove rust

Step 4: check ebrake for proper adjustment, and evaluate anything else while the car is 3ft in the air.

After this i should be able to set the car back down and drop the engine/trans back in. Then on to final suspension stuff. Then fuel system. Then wiring. Then let that little green whore SING

I finally finished making my custom brake lines. They are 95% installed and the car is back on the ground. Need to make the flex line to caliper connections, and attach the lines to the car a few more places.

Next steps will be to clean up the rust on the engine, repaint the block, drop it in. Get the headers installed. Install the radiator and fans, set ride height, get the rear coilovers mounted and welded in. Measure for custom fuel cell and get that ordered (if the guy will actually answer my email)

Are you still working? How's your partner doing with the fire repair?

Yes unfortunately still working. 3 day weekends are nice though. They're going to demolish and not rebuild. They found a log cabin in the woods and the seller accepted their offer.

Told him I'm done working for him October 1st at the very latest. Ive got a life to figure out and being a slave to a paycheck is not what i want to do.
