[QUOTE="Mustang5L5, post: 16100916, member: 38517"] As with anything with the potential to be "collectible" the term "dime a dozen" usually means at some point in the future they will become scarce when people consume them thinking there's an endless supply. I grew up in the 90'sand early 00's hearing that Fox bodies were a dime a dozen, and they were right. $3-4K would get you a clean car with average to lower miles. There were so many for sale and you could see 3-4 of them a day on the road...even here in the northeast. Drive em, rust em out, hack em out, crash them...who cares just go buy another. Now, i'm lucky if I see 1 or 2 a summer up in these parts on the road. Clean cars that have intact towers go for stupid money. The coupes were all cut up and raced hard since they were the cars to get back in the day and the cheapest to buy new and now they are hard to fine in clean condition. $3-4K now gets you an unknown mileage, 7-8 owner, poorly modified driver. I've seen the GT models fall off in terms of desirability, as well as convertibles and automatics. It seems if you want to get into a fox and not pa a crazy price, a convertible automatic GT is the way to go. I can understand the craze though. I was 17 with a fox body and was jealous of the guys dumping money into their cars with full suspensions from maximum motorsports, or nice engine builds and big brakes. I was stuck driving my near-stock fox with flowmasters and underdrive pullies. Now, as I near my 40's I have the money to do what I couldn't do then. Fortunately for me...I still have the actual fox I drove when I was 17. [/QUOTE]
