A labor of love, without a doubt. I imagine, had I ever bought a car new, as Keith did and sold it a year later, I may have also attempted hunting it down too. I have to say, I probably would NOT have persued it after seeing the first set of pictures and I absolutely KNOW I would have lost heart after seeing the San Diego pictures! WOW!
I give his wife the most credit (behind the scenes) of his blog. What a trooper! Not very many would have road cross country in a jalopy as that Fox trap was! Talk about a road-trip! A road trip from hell! Suprised he ever had a kid after that! ;)
Thanks for sharing,
Richard

No new work done either before heading off to work for me, and I started reading about 4:30 or 5, finished by 6:30 when I posted about it.
It DOES help in motivation though...

So I got to see this car first hand over the weekend during our local Mustang clubs "Mustang Memories" show held at Ford's Product Development Center.
All I can say is that the photos do not do it justice. It was an absolutely incredible restoration...truly top notch! I took a few shots with my iPhone and will upload them when I get a moment. ;)

They have an article on this car
Good stuff

I noticed that too when the latest Hemmings came in the mail. It's cool to see a Fox body getting recognition in a magazine like Hemmings Muscle Machines.

This needs to be brought back up. Fantastic restoration thread. A lot of time and dedication went into this. He tried to do it right. Do yourself a favor and look through this.
