Very happy to introduce this foxbody owned by Alex Markou. You will find Alex’s 1989 LX hatchback staying cozy in the garage of his Ohio home. Alex worked two jobs to buy the car brand new, and has owned the car since he was 18 years old. The car was enjoyed and got treated to all the 90’s modifications we all remember. As with all things, life happened and Alex turned his focus to his wife and family.

Very happy to have worked with Alex and some of his family members. It is always a bit risky when building something for the first time. Takes a lot of trust, and I appreciate it. The fox will likely be back in the garage for the winter, so here is a little rundown on the car.

I have a long way to go with mine and just hope I'm still around to see it finished. The more I get done, the more I have to do. It simply never ends. You picked the perfect example with that car T.

someone to tell him to convert it back to a 2x4. Or pull the fenders so it all sits flush.

Absolutely love the combo though
