What did you do to your foxbody mustang today?

That's a lot of good looking Foxes. Looks like it was an awesome day, weather wise, too.
The 20 year old flowmasters were starting to rust out inside so i needed a new cat-back regardless.
Heard how the Borla Pro XS was a quieter muffler in general that still has plenty of growl when you get on it. I've run flowmasters and off-road pipe in the past, but now I want a catted mid-pipe and a quieter muffler. Guess i'm just getting old.
It's still going to be loud regardless.
I wish we had that many foxes around here lol. Do you know the bumper number of that red 85 Saleen?

It's number 25 I forgot we took this pic like 3 weeks ago.
I assumed 85, but it could be an 86. I hate to be a pain, but I try to get these to the registry whenever possible. If it is an 86 it was once green and white. If it’s an 85 it’s not in the registry at all. Any chance you can confirm the year next time you see him? Thanks.
Yup I'll find out.
Man that is so cool and clean looking. Maybe I missed it, did you make the box?

No i had it done at a local shop they've done all my audio in all my vehicles. They did a really good job i originally was just going to do a single 10 but they were like nah we can fit 2. They also put audio damper in the whole trunk so it wouldn't rattle.
I managed to get my hands on an NOS, new in box 91 Lincoln Mark 7 10-disk CD changer kit. Arrived yesterday and I was as giddy as a kid in the 90's hooking it up to my OE radio i setup as a garage radio.
I have a thing for the original Ford 90's radios, so this is right up my alley. I have a 93 premium radio setup in my car, currently with the CD player, but I think i'm going to install my 93 tape deck instead, if i'm going to run the 10-disk changer.
Need to figure out where I am going to mount the changer box, and then run the wires under the carpet for it. I'm actually excited to get this.
Quick check on my test setup to see if it works. Currently working on adding bluetooth to these radios.

I had developed a nasty squeak in the front end while going over bumps, I assumed ball joints. After removing my sway bar end links (I was replacing those anyway) I realized the squeak was coming from the sway bar bushings. Ordered up the sway bar bushing and end link kit from LMR, and put it back together Wednesday.
I had also taken the battery tender off about a month and a half ago, I figured I would need a new battery for this year anyway. Lowered the car down off the lift and when I opened the door the interior light was on, started right up, but the battery was a little weak.
So, took her out on a 120 mile shake down cruise up through Pennsylvania, over to Delaware and back home. Squeak was all gone and she ran awesome.
Heading out of town on Vacation for a couple weeks... When I get home I need to get it cleaned up for Chocolate Fox in Hershey, Pa. Can't wait, this show is getting big.

She's looking really good. I love the period lower side blue stripes. She should get a lot of attention at the Chocolate Fox event in Hershey.
I finished clay bar on the 90 7 up vert. I planned on starting on the 03 cobra, but this paint needs a lot of help.
I then had to test a bad spot. Should finish up nicely.

That came out real nice. I'm having my car done next week too.
Thanks. It's a lot of work, but definitely rewarding! Hoping to get the cobra done next, then the reef blue hatch this summer.

Each time you do paint correction, Brady, you hone your skills.
