[QUOTE="Black Gold 380R, post: 16970010, member: 70025"] My advice to you up front is...... DON'T DO IT!!! I had a 1989GT Fox Body that I bought for $6K in 1991. It was originally Cabernet Red with Titanium lower accent paint. The interior was sand beige. I modified it a lot, like you did to your car, to make it my own. In 2002 I "thought" I had my fill and decided to trade it in for the 380R Roush I have now. I have made some mistakes in my life, but that decision is the "only" one I regret to this very day. I have been pining for that car for many years now. As a matter of fact in 2014 I found the car and asked the owner if I could buy it back. He agreed, but I had 2 problems, I couldn't afford it at the time (was still paying child support) and my current wife thought I was trying to reconnect to my old life and did not support me buying the car back. So, I asked the guy to wait about 10 months (child support would end) and he agreed. Well during that time the guy wrecked the car. God damn it!!!! [ATTACH type="full"]1814636[/ATTACH] So, now the car is lost forever, but my desire to have it back has not faded. I've been looking for another Fox Body like mine, but can't find one. So, I decided to request a Marti report just last week. According to the Marti report my car was 1 of only 44 built in that specific color combination/interior color. No way in hell I'm finding one of those other 43. So, I'm looking for any color with the sand beige interior (it has to have sand beige interior). I can find a ton of convertibles with that color interior, but very few GT or LX hard tops (There is an almond color LX on ebay right now with the sand beige interior, but problem #2 above is still present.

And now it's going to cost me way more money to get a Fox Body back as they are very popular and desirable. They want $25K for the almond one I mentioned above. So, I say NO WAY in hell do you get rid of your car that you've had since you were 17 or suffer my fate...... [/QUOTE]
