- Trying to Drift this Foxbody Mustang: • Everything Wrong With ...
This is how to DIY swap the front end of your foxbody mustang, from the classic ford 4-eye look to the more modern aero nose front end! It was a really fun and easy mod to do to this mustang and only took an afternoon. There are a lot of things I need to button up still, but those will happen down the line when the rest of the parts come in. Thanks for watching!

Canadian tow truck? LMAO
Not my brightest idea, but I got a pretty good laugh 😂
The builds that most people say are controversial end up being some of the best cars with the most effort put into them
cant wait to see where this goes and how many people it pisses off
That's definitely my plan with this one! I think there will be a lot of upset people before the build is finished lol
I've always found it weird that people even consider this swap as an "upgrade", I think the 87-93 front is just the most generic looking front ever, put any brand logo on it and it works. Maybe because I grew up with mundane cars with a similar "face" : Renault 19, Citroen AX, Renault 21, Ford Sierra...
I get that definitely. And I agree, the 4 eye is definitely a more interesting front end. for me, the earlier model year front end messes up the body lines, I know its just an optical illusion but I feel it makes the front of the car look too 'long' in relation to the back of the car. The flatter style of the aero nose makes the car have better proportions in my eyes. Thanks for watching!
For me I think the 4 eye can look better, but the aero nose is what I grew up seeing tearing up the streets and ripping donuts so it makes me nostalgic for the time I grew up specifically
@@bobbawon i’m sure that’s why they’re so popular in the US. In Europe they’re almost non existent, you get a 100 1st gen for one Fox 😅
@@bobbawon I fully agree. The Aero nose just has a special place in my heart, even if it is more common!
that "canadian tow truck" was pretty Fn funny
i was laughing to myself filming it lol!
I think you made a cool choice on this one bud, I like all styles of foxbody mustangs but I do prefer the newer aero styling over the square boxy style.. boxy just doesn't fit the sleek body design in my own personal opinion.. can't wait to see where this goes 😁

you and me both! thanks for watching dude!
The big heavy crash structure you removed actually also fits on top of 89-93. Give it a try! It works, you can thank me later :)
Oh dang I had no idea! Thanks for the heads up!
Great video brother, here now and supported your channel!! 👊🦊🏁
Appreciate the support! Hopefully see you at some meets this summer!
If you can find a pair of 87-93 LX front fenders they will bolt up with your bumper and reduce your fabrication with the oe fenders.
Yeah I'll keep my eyes peeled, they don't seem to be too expensive either! I got a set when I bought this front end but they are pretty rusted so I'd love to get a set that I can just bolt right on.. Maybe use the old fender to cut up and make some over fenders!
Its gonna be very unique and beautiful when shes done
Thanks! I really hope so. Got some fun plans in store for it that will hopefully set it apart!
I need ur old front bumper 🫣
Seems to be tons of guys looking for the 4 eye front end! Is thr 82 front your fav Gen?
I definitely like where your going with this but are the used bumper, hood & fenders up for grabs ?
The hood and bumper are! Send me a dm on insta
I think the most controversial mod would be converting it to electric or diesel
dont go putting any funny ideas in my head lol
@@LooseFab Westin did the latter 😅
@@machinesnmetal and it turned out pretty dang cool!
This is great but I need to find a video like this but in the opposite direction. I'm putting 4 eyes on my 88
You just need to watch the video in reverse
@@LooseFab haha true! Only hangup I could see is if the side fenders are to small for the aero nose on yours, then the 88 side fenders will probably be to big for the 4 eye nose.
@@LukePowerstancedUp oops just saw this now, the fenders are actually the same! There's a plastic piece of trim that goes with the Aero nose to fill in the gap
Throw the socket on the ground the bolt will jar loose and come out.
Great idea, I'll keep that one in the back pocket for next time!
Dude you wre hilarious ngl.1:44 dude 😅
😂
What decade do you think that dirt in the wheel well is from?
i bet a little of it came straight from the factory lol! Felt like I was counting the rings of a tree when I was cleaning that stuff out, im surprised I didnt strike oil
Yeah that's definitely controversial... Subscribed!
I really appreciate the support, thank you!
Noooooooooooooo
Oh boy, here we go😂
Your taking away it's identity shameful.
If you think this is bad wait until you see what else is in store for this car! Lol, thanks for watching!
In the foxbody world doing this is a sin ,i done one like this myself because my front-end was trashed when i bought the shell .mine is a 79 cobra and ive got a 87lx front and it looks fantastic
People definitely aren't too thrilled about it it seems but I really like the more modern front end! A 79 cobra would be a ton of fun. Thanks for watching!
