Yeah I wouldn't mind doing a terminator swap but I think I would feel bad tearing apart the cobra. Maybe I just buy a motor and an IRS out of some wrecked cars. Man, the more I talk about this thing, the more work is cut out for me. Lol!

Lots of beautiful Fox bodies in here. I had one for a short period of time when I was in my early 20s. it turned out to be more of a project car than I was able to handle at the time, so I had to sell it. They are very nostalgic to me though and the sound and look of the Foxes brings back a lot of memories growing up and watching them when the hot rods came to town.

The solution seems to be to win the lottery. Lol. I hope some more notches get posted soon. Need more inspiration for the exterior of my 86.

How do you get the grill delete? Is it bumper cover you can buy?

unreal notchbacks here! I have two (owned several over the past year), my current driver is a 92' 4-cyl auto notch (future coyote swap??), and my 93' notch, which was originally a 4-cyl. auto, but now a true factory correct conversion with mods.

Here is a picture of my 93' before the conversion;

And after the conversion;
