Amazing car and story. That car is too good for me lol I wouldn't want the stress of trying to keep it original.

That is Mint for sure, there is a point where most people will have too much stress to keep the car the way it is, and have a place to keep it and not get dirty. Great find, nice add to the collection!

Wow so clean amazing deal you did the right thing and not bring it back in the salt every thing work out when it’s right awesome find and awesome story to go with it all in video awesome see it at the show going be awesome

Absolutely gorgeous! Thank you for sharing this story with us. I started following your channel only about six months ago and absolutely love your OCD and the attention to detail. You’re on my shortlist of favorites and have just started listening to your podcast with Gary. I find myself listening while working on my 88 GT convertible. Thank you for all the content!

That was my exact first car would love to have it!!!!!

That is a super clean Foxbody! OMG 💯 rare!

Beautiful car! I really like how much you love these cars! Thank you for the video!

Exactly my first car. Would be cool to own that one. Cool video, thanks for sharing.

Great video Chris! Beauty of a car.

Love these type vids. Man. You are too good of a guy. You did not have to let him back out the first time. Trailer or no trailer, you put money in that guy's hand. Sob story or not he's locked right there IMO.

Sick!!!!!! Clean af!

It’s one of those cars that are too nice to drive!

I didn’t know you were canadian….. i thought you were from austin texas…… I know that ksl is in canada and i’m subscribed to his channel. There are a lot of foxbody channels popping up. But i think i’ve seen your channel along time ago. At any rate good video 👍🏿😂

I remember hearing about this on the podcast

People truly don't get the door opening and closing I love it was mentioned! Even on 30 year old cars with decent miles you can get a feel for quality of car and use of the car by doors. Door should be smooth and have a firm feel, hold its self open with ease, and when shutting have a crisp quiet suction to it when latching closed. The coupe was in amazing condition for a Canada car.

That's an awesome find. It would probably make my keep list. I wish it was a U.S. car, but definitely does't hurt the value in my opinion. If you still have it when I finish my coyote coupe, I'd be very interested.

Loved the video, great story! Although I do prefer the tweed seats over the base model seats they were not an option in the notch until 91.

Awesome notch… with the great story and full documentation! Sure hope that thing stays original!Awesome he kept the original exhaust and was smart enough to not cut it! I would put a set of the repop Gatorbacks on ASAP.

Now that ……is a stupid clean amazing coupe…sadly only the 4cylinder cars stay this nice…rare to see a 5.0 fox this clean!

Thats a $35K-$39K car. However, anybody who owns a enclosed trailer and trys to buy a car that takes years is definitely a "reseller". It just comes down to the price at this point.

Amazing car but I’d be torn between trying to keep it perfect and driving it ……hence why mine is a 4-8 swap I can drive the way they were meant to be driven

OMG i had that exact same car for 13 years, i regret selling!

Awesome car, I had a 1991 notch 5.0, painted lipstick Red, I hated to sell it but raising kids was expensive lol

Awesome car you should also do a video on a sn95 94-98

Im a car guy and would daily drive it long as the weather is nice. My 58 Bel Air hits the road when ever I can.

Wow ..wow...wow

Original tire was a Goodyear Gatorback. Or did it change in 1990? Also, if you had brought it back on an open trailer it wouldn’t have been the end of the world. One trip on a trailer on salted roads is different than driving it on salted roads. The salt would just be some spray. You can easily wash the car and get all of it. That said, I would have done the same thing you did, given his offer to deliver.

I know in 1991 the tire they came with was a Goodyear Eagle GT4. You had the option of getting it with Michelin All Seasons though at no additional charge if that’s what you wanted. I can not speak on the 1990 models, though.

15” Gatorbacks on all 5.0’s up until ‘90. From 91-93 GT’s got the 16” Gatorbacks. The LX 5.0 cars got the Michelin XGT’s.

The moral of the story is to get an enclosed trailer!

It wasn’t that serious to trailer it in the snow if it gets a little salt that’s the name of the game But you lucked up

There’s been a lot of cars I wish they would’ve backed out, lol

If you put a coyote motor in that car you are doing 10 or 11 second quarter mile times.

OMFG!!!!! I tried and tried to buy THIS exact car from the original owner years ago!!!!! The guys initials are L.F. He could never commit to a time outside of" the next half hour" .lol

Just starting the video, so I'll answer the question as you asked it. No I wouldn't bring the trailer. Why? I would have brought cash, and if a deal was worked out, exchanged that for the title, and worked out details on picking up the car for a later date.

The original tire was Goodyear eagles

No power windows/locks. Wouldn’t that come in a “fully optioned” car?

I encountered a 66 mustang all original, sell for peanuts at an auction. Nobody seemed interested in it. At some point, you want to drive the car and these are museum pieces. I figure, you can restore a car and drive the crap out of it, then restore it again. Just drive.

Man I thought I was doing good keeping my 21 Camaro to 13k miles over two years. It's so hard to not drive a fun car like this, IDK how they did it!!

No way I would have put Flowmasters on that car...it should have been left 100% original. The original tires were Goodyear Gatorbacks from 1985-1990 with the 15 inch wheel, then for the 16 inch Pony wheels the Michelin was used on the LX 5.0 from 1991-1993 while the GT still got the Gatorbacks, all 1993 Cobras had Gatorbacks, at least that's how it was in the US.

Thought stock tires on the ten holes were goodyear gatorbacks

Backing out of a paid deal is what flaky D bags do. "it's not about the money" Buuuullsh*t most people would sell their soul for the right price. man I hate the buy/sell dance.

You couldn't get the sport seats in 1990 in a 5.0 coupe...1991 was when Ford put the sport seats standard in all 5.0 cars. That car has the correct factory interior, you'd be a crazy nut to change it.
