Craig ... you're a highly intelligent motivated person, not afraid of any challenge. Keep up the great work as your vids are very inspirational. Thank you!
I also did the Ashtray->Cup holder swap. And like you I have a manual. Which means its virtually impossible to use the forward cup holder. (Gear shift hits the any large drink cups in the forward holder.) I use mine for a change holder, and any passengers just have to hold their drink. [12:21] If I were to do it again, I move/mount the cup holders back 3" to where the mirror switch is, and move the mirror switch forward between the gear shift and the cupholder.
You should buy a pistol grip spray can top. I don't know the right name for it but you get it in the paint department. Clip on the can, shake and pull the trigger. It makes using a spray so easy.
Ya gotta check out a great metal fabricator in Nova Scotia, this guy is a riot funny. He also has many many cool and weird builds. One car he has is completely restored 62’ Galaxie in perfect shape. Bad Chad is his title
Knocking it out piece at a time. I think it will look super cool when you're done. Wait a minute, I'm writing about Craig. When he is done he will find something else to improve or modify. LOL! Go Craig, it's looking good.
Great video on pulling dash and center console pieces. Would have repainted the light titanium myself to keep that stock look, but Mustangs are all about making it your own, so own it brother! 👊🏻
This really makes me miss my ‘86 gt. The dash removal reminds me of the nightmare I had when doing mine. Had to get rid of the car though because I twisted the frame after building a 347 stroker and not reinforcing the frame. Now it’s so hard in south Jersey to find any and I mean ANY fox body for under 5 grand
I'm not positive but I believe that because the first Mustang was a half-year model that late '89 and early '90 cars were anniversary cars. My '90 5.0 LX vert had the anniversary badge and gold trim pieces.
California is called the golden state because it's so hot and dry everything is dead. The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence, till you get there and discover it's artificial turf!
Loving you got a fox body, but would love to see you get the truck under the knife and put it on the other frame, that would be awesome. Or did you give up on that frame swap?
It can be done without removing the dash completely, still a pain but possible. My 85 has an access panel behind the glove box, can be done in 15 mins if your motivated.
Only two tone factory interior in a mustang I've seen that I really like how it looked I've seen 3 the sn95 style 94-98 Ford mustang my best friend same one that owned the 235, miles Calypso green metallic 93 mustang had a 113, miles 95 Ford mustang LX but the deluxe interior package with no exterior stripes at all..it's interior was black and red with black and red door panel and black console with red headliner and seats looked sweet and the other 2:I've seen I found on Craigslist and Facebook marketplace one is a 96 4.6 gt car and the other one is a 98 3.8 5speed 3.55 rear gear LX but has the exterior bottom side stripe that says mustang and has the ford mustang dash emblem on the stripes.. neither were exactly like my best friends interior was..
SHARE THE HELL OUT OF CRAIG'S VIDEOS!!!! LET'S ALL HELP HIM GET TO 100K SUBS BY LABOR DAY!!!!! I really like that cup holder/ashtray delete, if I ever do a fox body, that will be very high on my list of things to do. Did your car originally have an airbag in the original steering wheel?? If it did, you might want to check with your insurance agent. In the state I live in, if ANY of the airbags have been removed, they will not cover personal injuries that "could have been prevented" with the use of an airbag.
That Duplicolor interior paint is too shiny and it chips very easy .. if you want the correct interior shin I recommend you to use VHT roll-bar and chassis paint ( satin ) , yes I know is not for interior use but it leaves a perfect interior tone and shin .. Perfect OEM shin and most importantly it does not chip and is not easy to scratch .. Repainted!!!!
How do you get away with these vehicles in California isn’t like all the engine modes and exhaust super illegal I am probably wrong but ik they are super serious about stuff like that in Cali
Yes, Ca sucks for car enthusiasts. I have a 93 Fox, every time I get it smogged it's a pain. You can also get tickets for modified exhaust, you have to return it back to stock, and then get it inspected by a state ref. I really don't know how people get away with all these mods in this state, unless there getting smogged illegally.
Craig ... you're a highly intelligent motivated person, not afraid of any challenge. Keep up the great work as your vids are very inspirational. Thank you!
I enjoy the fox content, but really missing the truck and I feel like a lot of people are with me!
Nothing sounds better than a 5.0 Mustang 🤟🏻
I did the heater core on my high school beater '87 mustang 20 years ago. Nasty job, had 6 screws left over 🤷♂️🤣

That duplicolor vinyl paint is amazing stuff. I’ve never had it not turn out nice. Highly recommend!
Looking awesome! Keep ‘em coming.
Those wheels have made me actually like a Fox body. You have been working miracles on that car, great content.
I just always put my drinks in between the parking brake and the seat when I had my fox. And it worked great. Even when I had a passenger.
That car is screaming RESTOMOD! Lookin' WOW!
Steering wheel is awesome and I like that it's suede because when you flock your dash the steering wheel will go great with it
I’m glad you added this mustang to your channel. 🤙🏽

Well done Craig! Love the content. Recently got a mullet too! Rock it!!
Here is what I will say
" The Good thing about doing it cheap, You get to do it more often"
Start rollin on your 909 merch kid.717 rockin n rollin!
Love the work being done to this Foxbody 👍
Knocking it out piece at a time. I think it will look super cool when you're done. Wait a minute, I'm writing about Craig. When he is done he will find something else to improve or modify. LOL! Go Craig, it's looking good.
Don't forget the adhesion promoter. Thank you.
Great video on pulling dash and center console pieces. Would have repainted the light titanium myself to keep that stock look, but Mustangs are all about making it your own, so own it brother! 👊🏻
Looking forward to seeing what you do next with the F100. That is such a classic truck.
This really makes me miss my ‘86 gt. The dash removal reminds me of the nightmare I had when doing mine. Had to get rid of the car though because I twisted the frame after building a 347 stroker and not reinforcing the frame.

Looking better and better every time you do a video on it .keep up the great work and God Bless 🔥💯💪🏼👍👍🙏🙏✌
Great work came out awesome 😎
Well Craig u gave your stang some love not bad the mustang going to look nice
It's the rag joint that makes the steering wheel have so much play. Switch to a Maximum Motorsports solid steering shaft.
I just pulled the dash out of my 87 gt parts car this evening. Its a job for sure
I'm not positive but I believe that because the first Mustang was a half-year model that late '89 and early '90 cars were anniversary cars. My '90 5.0 LX vert had the anniversary badge and gold trim pieces.
Hold it hold it hold it, stop all work until you install wi fi touch screen navigation, satalite radio, lol. Then put some A/C in that car, sweet.
For sure flock the dash, my friend flocked the dash in his 89, looks really good
Holy shit! Over $50.00 for 87 octane in a Mustang tank! Dear God!!
Used to have a 97 town car same color with a 5.0 and super chip
Man I wish the humidity would die here in South Carolina! I am so jealous of California climate
California is called the golden state because it's so hot and dry everything is dead. The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence, till you get there and discover it's artificial turf!
I hated doing that job! 😣 But it looks a lot better. 🤘😎
hey @thecraig909, did you ever install the horn and if so, how did you get it to work with that wheel?
Loving you got a fox body, but would love to see you get the truck under the knife and put it on the other frame, that would be awesome. Or did you give up on that frame swap?
Flocking, dash mat, something. ANYTHING will be better than glossy black in the sunlight.
Love the direction you are taken the Fox body in. Can’t wait to see how it handles an autocross course.
It can be done without removing the dash completely, still a pain but possible. My 85 has an access panel behind the glove box, can be done in 15 mins if your motivated.
LMR makes a center console that has cup holders. Super legit.
Yeah but lmr overprices everything.
It's better just to diy or buy your parts from rockauto or go to the junk yard and hope you get lucky etc.
Awesome job Craig..when are you going to make a video on painting the frontend of the car

Got 20+ mpg easily in my 91 LX 5.0. Did you look into carbon fiber look for your console and some panels? Seen it done looks awesome.
My Dad had an 83 and still says to this day that the heater core replacement on that was one of the worst automotive jobs he ever did.

Can’t wait to see ya flock that thang!
Run Midgrade, I used to run 89 in my 04 Mustang GT and it liked it. Got 25 MPG running 80mph down the highway.
How do you like the s550's? My first mustang was an 89 GT
No knock sensor on those, so it won't pull timing.....it will just ping.
do they still have the octane boost bottles at napa
Where did you get that cup insert at?
I like how when he first got this car he said I ain’t going to go to crazy with it few vidos later whole dash gone lol Lol
My brother and I had to replace the heater core in his 79 fox body. Not fun
That Duplicolor interior paint is too shiny and it chips very easy ..
if you want the correct interior shin I recommend you to use VHT roll-bar and chassis paint ( satin ) , yes I know is not for interior use but it leaves a perfect interior tone and shin ..
Perfect OEM shin and most importantly it does not chip and is not easy to scratch ..
Repainted!!!!
Do Think of Fox Wine would be a good first car
What shifter is that?
thought you said you wouldn't be doing much to it LOL this is amazing though keep the videos coming
I liked the two tone better.
Love it
Looking good
How did you that thing to pass smog?
It's called a $100 bill smog...
A good video of what not to do
These don't pull timing, no knock sensors
Door cards are gonna look odd now. Time to paint them too, maybe.
Talks about fuel economy ill cut to me reving it to compensate with happiness......
Same man same
Make a video with 4 speed films 🎥 driving eachothers stangs
Are going to put air conditioner in it?
👍😎😎😎
Man get working on the 1964ford... okay man I'm 68.. and I would like to see it done soon before my time is up ha ha ha funny lol
His console also had red accents and the console lid was red .

You sure it has a aftermarket cam ? Sounds more like a vacuum leak which they are prone to under the intake.
Move to California they say… $5gal 87 gas, $10 small coffee…. Hahaha I’ll pass.
Love the car, but youtube music really sucks.
