Been driving 5.0 since the 90’s before menace. I currently own a 88 manual vert with chrome Daytons. Just do you man. I would like to see another build like this.
Never owned a vert or wire wheels, but that’s one sharp looking car. I’d rock it. I guess some people never heard “ If you have nothing nice to say don’t say anything “ And as always learned a few things that I didn’t know with this car. Enjoy new owner!!
Love Fox convertibles! Got a ‘91 LX and had to replace plastic ‘gears’ in left rear window motor. Always hate fighting the 7/16 ‘screws’ holding the rear seat back in place. Took off the seat back this time and created extensions on the seat back and ’flanges’ on the body. Used double layers of pipe hanger strap with holes every 3/4 inches. Wish I’d thought of this years ago 😂 I’m 76, but old dogs can learn new tricks!
Soooo, this might be a long post but here goes. I'm 45 years old, "white", born in Arkansas and moved to Houston, Tx when I was 9 years old. Went to school in a, mostly Hispanic/black neighborhood. I learned Spanish when I was 13 years old. I joined a lowrider car club when I was 15. I loved the cars and the culture and they accepted me with open arms. I put wire rims on every car I owned because I liked them!! I didn't care who didn't like them.... I liked them!! My favorite car is the mustang but I never owned one during that time. Ive always wanted a foxbody with wire rims, which is why I like this build so much!! No, it's not practical or built for speed, but sometimes you just want a flashy car to cruise around in and be noticed... especially when you are young! That's what this style was about. You buy and modify a car to show off "your personality". That may change over the years but it's an extension of you...at least for those of us who are enthusiasts. I may or may not rock some wire rims on my next project but this car has inspired me to get back to why I chose cars as a hobby in the first place! P.S. If you like slammed, lowered, airbagged cars, you have the Lowrider community to thank for that! Just saying,
Yess! to your comment on different styles, where they come from and you speaking up against racial pricks. Respect for your courage! Don’t let such knuckleheads get you down. You nailed the feel on this one.
Never mind people Chris. The car looks cool and somone will be happy to have it. That is the problem with the mustang community....they always think they are better than everyone else. What is disgusting is that people are making sour comments.
Looks amazing!! And that’s the Los Angeles Look back when those cars were new. Yes todays youth totally vent to hard for lack of parenthood or who knows but they just kids. Block them is what I do. Stay up Bruh!
Man do yo thang, you have the cleanest 🫧 Foxbodies on TH-cam. I've grown up having 100 spokes on our cars, we inspired Menis to Society to put them Gold Thangs (Gold Shoes) or what ever you want to call them on all cars not just Foxbodies. If you like it JUST DO IT! YOUR MY INSPIRATION !!
From the series when you started it I was in love with it thank you for building this car and taking it to where it's at now sorry you're selling it. But and I want to say as a black man I appreciate everything you said about the comments you get when people try to separate us from the one thing that we love then that's cars. Thank you for standing up and saying something I appreciate you
The views speak for themselves, a 5.0 GT convertible on wire wheels is what the people want to see! You did great work on the car and it looks super clean! The new owner will get a nice car.
2 stangs in my local junk yard (a 79 and a 92) going to see what parts can be liberated tomorrow ... i always like to find these in the yard more parts more problems.
Great job and the Vert. Awesome brother. Loved your comments on the other folks. Good job. Jim here. I have an original never was put in service 93 SSP.
A true car guy can appreciate every type of vehicle from all eras and along with theyre very individual owners... we all keep the passion alive and moving forward ... if there was only 3 types of vehicles youd had to choose from no options no aftermaket industry... y even bother right
What would you do that would piss people off? An LS swap… that might piss some people off… I wasn’t a fan of the wire wheels at first , but you pulled it off man… it looks good 👍 I’m not a fan of the BMW stuff… I’m here for the fox body content, but love the channel… you do a great job!!! Thank you for doing what you do 👍… The 5.0 Boyz from Illinois!!!!
I’ll be honest. 🙈 Your first video of this fox has me split, but as I saw it more it grew on me. I hate to see it go. I thought you were going to keep it. ❤
I will chime in here. As a 50 year old AA male, I appreciate all custom cars, trucks etc. I think some people have forgotten what Car Culture is all about. Expressing YOURSELF through vehicles is what makes the car culture great. Seeing what someone else has done. People need to understand that when someone customizes a vehicle to their liking, it’s not to please the whole world, but to express themselves on what they like. Whether it be stanced, big wheel old schools, hydraulics, airbags, trucks on big lifts and big tires etc. I never judge people on what they like. At the end of the day, no one is giving up any cash to help fund someone else’s hobby, so why do people care so much about what someone else does to the vehicle that “THEY OWN” and spend their hard earned money on. Get over it. If you don’t like certain flavors, then stop watching that flavor, go watch something else. Why watch something you don’t like? You don’t need to leave a negative comment about it. Just go somewhere else.
Doesn't matter if you like it or not, it's never cool to hate on someone's passion or hobby. With that said I seem to learn something or see something new every time I watch. I have to know how you got the top that black!?! Please tell me. Have a great week Chris.
Chris, You did say that you couldn't keep them all unfortunately. I feel for you. I regret to this day selling my 86' T Top GT with a 351W and 9" rear in the mid 90's.
still own my 1986 GT Rustang, thinking of going stroker 351W since it's a solid roof car (the only part left that's still solid after life as a daily in the snowbelt). The drivetrain's not original anymore, so nothing to restore, just repair and replace.
I think the car is freaking sick! It's not really my style at all, but I would drive the shit out of it! I hate to see it go. And I absolutely cant stand the negative BS thats on TH-cam or Facebook or whatever, anytime someone asks a question on Facebook groups, someone has to comment and try and make them look stupid, just because they dont have as much as experience with these cars as them, really pisses me off!
I appreciate you bringing this issue to the forefront Chris. I was hoping that the vile racist comments that folks (people of color) received by having wire wheels would stop when you introduced Project Menace on your platforms......obviously it didn't stop. It's ok to put 17x9s on a foxbody, only if it's tucked underneath and not sticking out? Wtf? I have a 91 quadruple white GT (white ponies, white top white exterior/interior) that I'm finishing up the sound system and some engine mods this winter but come spring, my wires are going on it! I like all foxbody stangs whether it's tubbed out or skate-boarded. I'm sure the racism will not stop but I'm just glad and was hoping you addressed it and you did! Thanks bro!
Good morning my friend, love your channel, I'm from Ottawa Canada, i have 3 Mustangs in my stable right now. Sadly all stored for winter. I would like to get myself a set of wired wheels like this on my fox but I'm wondering how the front wheels don't rub? Did you cut the plastic moldings off the front bumper? Thanks in advance and continue the great work!
Don't matter what anyone tells you, all wire wheels are made in China, even Dayton. Dayton comes in the same shipping container as another major brand from China. The difference is, Dayton, Luxor, and a few wire wheel custom builders, polish, chrome, true, and build them here with China manufactured parts. So there is still a quality difference, but they all come from China.
This sale will open the door for something as nice or nicer. Jay Leno doesn't like his cars to get wet. I hate getting my 93 RBM coupe wet, as it doesn't see any bad weather to need washed. California Car Duster and spray detailing.
Wat do u use for your tires to make it look that wet shine I've used armor all n all diferent products n have not been happy how it turns out want look like the tires on the Dayton's that wet shiny
Oh ok Kool have u posted new videos of it I would love to see it and did you go back with wire wheels, I need that silver paint code off the one that u sold

Build it the way you want to !!! I had an 82 on Daytons back in the day & I miss it😢 Texas born & raised👍

Hopefully you can get another Fox body convertible & add some wire wheels I ❤️ that menace to society project 👌💪💯🔥

As Nick Nolte said over 40 years ago……I’m a ragtop guy
I saw this 5.0 driving down HWY79 w/the top down a few weeks ago in Round Rock.... The Menace II Society wheels looked good and caught my eye.
That was me going to pick up some VIA 313 Pizza lol
Love the channel, love the message, coming from a fellow car lover, your channel is quickly becoming one of my favorites!!!
love how real this vid is 💯
Keep doing “you” Mean people suck - Enjoy all the content and look forward to the next
Loved this this project Chris! Wish I was the one buying it!
Hell yeah ! Definitely build your own. Thats rad! Man instead of air ride try some hydraulics. Shit so fun !
I feel like one cruise in it bumpin some MC Breed would be fitting

I show the product in the video after I finish washing the car.
It turned out amazing! 💯
I love it man I love it I have a 87 vert Robin's top and I want a set of wires on mine always have always will. KASL finally made me say dope as fuck
You should get a set of those rims to keep around the shop and rotate them on different cars..lol
Very cool ride fella
Awe man, what a beautiful car, my goodness.
Loved this build. Different.

Good morning my friend, love your channel, I'm from Ottawa Canada, i have 3 Mustangs in my stable right now. Sadly all stored for winter. I would like to get myself a set of wired wheels like this on my fox but I'm wondering how the front wheels don't rub? Did you cut the plastic moldings off the front bumper? Thanks in advance and continue the great work!
No cutting. Only a slight rub if you turn full lock
@@TheInfamousProject are wire wheels safe?
Blessings. Beautiful car
Mann I want to finish my car
Hey Chris, if your going to build you your own Menace II Society? Call it " The Infamous Menace ll Society"
