New here from Southlake with Fox 5.0
 

Sup guys.

Name is Blake and I am new to the site. Moved here from Virginia last year. I currently live in Southlake and have a 87 Saleen foxbody (see pics) - yes it is real.

Pretty much stock engine wise...aka very slow. I have a Saleen/Vortech intake and exhaust.

I do have long term plans for it though. I want to put in a vortech blown 331 stroker. I just want a conservative 450 rwhp.

Anyways, looking forward to meeting up with ya'll sometime. I rarely drive the car, so you will probably not see it on the roads much. Anyone in the Grapevine/Southlake area? I also work in Plano, so I travel from Southlake to Plano everyday in my DD (sometimes drive the stang).

HAWT. Awesome car man. Welcome.

Welcome man! Very nice looking Saleen Fox you have. Dale (OG FOX) will be happy to see another Fox here.

Very cool, Love the fox body cars. Welcome

Nice Saleen.

Awesome Saleen! Welcome

Welcome, really nice looking car

One of my true bucket list cars! Welcome in man!

Welcome! That's a rare beauty you have there. :)

Very nice!!

Love the car!

Welcome

Welcome! Beautiful car!!! She's a true keeper

Very nice car. Thats the only car ill do a straight trade for on my 5.0. Beautiful car welcome to the site

That car is f*ckin' sick man! Welcome hope to see that beast at a meet.

Dayum... What a gorgeous car...!!!

Thanks for all of the welcomes guys. She's a keeper, but just a weekend driver for the most part.

I've got the car looking the way I want it to look, but now I want to start working on the brakes, suspension and engine (original stock 302 with a lot of miles). Needs some work, but I am slowly getting her back up to snuff.

If anyone is working on their cars and need an extra helping hand...give me a shout. I'm always up for helping and wrenching. Plus it will help me learn some things in the process.

Looking forward to meeting up with everyone soon...that is if you'll have a slow ass fox body with you...LOL

I did like the DFW5.0's page on FB as well.

Very nice. I plan on doing the saleen body kit on mine. But damn an original saleen is a rarity. congrats.

woooo were like neighbors!! I'm in southlake too! if you shop at the kroger in southlake, you'll see me/my car most days lol

If you need help with car mods let me know. I race a stock suspension fox that runs same lap times on road course as nasa cmc cars. We've learned alot of tricks to do to stock suspension. Also highly recommend doing cobra front brakes you want regret it.

Thanks OG...looking forward to seeing your build on your new fox.

Emery - I live in Timarron, so I frequent the Kroger quite a bit, but I am usually in my daily driver, which is an Audi S4. I will have to look for your car next time I am there.

Rebel - I would love to talk suspension one day. I do have a set of cobra calipers and booster for my car, just haven't installed them. I need to get the sn95spindles and some rotors. Fortunately I already have 5 lug all around.

Be sure to get the 94-95 sn95 spindles. They fit perfectly on car and cost about 25 bucks from wrecking yard

lol dude were seriously neighbors haha if you know where the round about is off white chapel and continental, my house is right off that haha

Love the car!!! Welcome!!!

That thing is sexy! Welcome

Awesome car. Southlake is a cool city as well. Welcome!

Emery,

I was on Continental yesterday at the roundabout in the Saleen and saw a Mustang similar to yours...was that you? I waved.

Welcome! Love that car!

Welcome, from a fellow Richmond, VA to Keller, TX transplant.
