EXCELLENT! THE BEST CAR EVER MADE! i want a notch-back fox body so bad! they make the BEST sleepers at the strip, and i think they look PERFECT. have you done anything to it?

bama....are there still body mount bushings under the cab on that thing? the hood lines up with the cab, thats not normal for a car hauler....whats the trick if you did drop the cab? :sweet

I'll post mine up when i'm ready to sell. It won't be too long.

i tried to find pics to show what i am talking about. all of the car haulers i work on, the cabs have been lowered to the frame, they slam it as low as possible. the hood remains untouched so the hood actually covers about 6' of windshield (on the most extreme one i recall). it gives it a "chop top" look.

I understand now Zookie. I have never seen one done like that.

after my road trip i looked at all of the ones on the road, i guess the fleet i work on regularly are the only trucks that have it done...its cool, they are able to keep the body lower by about 8" (i dont have to worry about bumping cars on the top of the door in the shop)

Those old tires I bought from Americas Tire or Les Schwab some 10-12 years back,can't believe there's still tread left!

Tell me about the Eagles you have? Size,tread left,etc. I may be interested.
