Figured I would start a thread mainly for myself to remember what I've done in the future and all the crap I've been through with this car. First off the car ran great and seemed like it had the typical fox issues, (headlight switch, electrical gremlins, etc.)
And a huge shout out to John for helping me out with parts. It's been a life saver with this car.
Here's how she started out. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180531/7a7df717fe67ed07d4167ce09b6bed2f.jpg

Really didn't like the red interior so I wanted to go with grey. Removed the red dash and found duct tape on the heater box. REALLY didn't want to take it off because I knew I wouldn't like it. Turns out someone had recently replaced the heater core but instead of removing the box like they were supposed to they just hacked the hell out of the box and the lid.
Also found a bunch of the wires were just twisted together with electrical tape wrapped around them.... High quality job!

I have a heater box if that's something you'd be interested in..
Ive always hated the red interior. It will make me look past a car if I see it.

Agree. Red interior is a purchase killer.

Agree. Red interior is a purchase killer.It usually would be for me too but after looking at so many rusted out foxes in my price range I decided it was easier to replace an interior than floorboards or torque boxes.

Took it out for the first time since I got it. Ran great aside from a small surging idle when it's cold. Time to start looking for vacuum leaks. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180604/5638b40cc8f332d5376126441d76b2dc.jpg
