Looking for a fox body (87-93) mustang or body, long story involved

[burndown]

Long story short, bought an 89 5.0 from Seattle, blew engine up on way home (cracked head, spun rod bearings), came home, woke up next day and rented a u-haul, drove to Seattle and back again for the second time in two days, rebuilt engine in "spare time" with "extra money" (2 months worth of "spare time" and about a grand of "extra money"), got to drive my like new 5.0 Mustang for about a month, let a friend drive it while I sat in the passenger seat, hit a moose, moose came through windshield, broke my nose, totaled the car, was driving car home, got pulled over by a cop who asked "Do you know why I pulled you over?" I said "Is it because we just hit a moose and my roof is bashed in and I have half a windshield that we can't see out of and my car is totaled?" And he says, I kid you not, "No, I pulled you over because you've got a headlight out." About then he shines the light on my face and starts freaking out and looks and the car and can't believe I'm still alive let alone now driving this once fantastic piece of crap. He has pity on me after taking pictures of this wonderful scene and lets me keep driving without giving me any tickets or forcing me to go to the hospital. Next day I was picking moose hair and $h!t out of my teeth and the car has moose feces all over my once mint interior, but still runs like a top. Needless to say, I'm looking for just a body or another complete fox mustang (87-93) to either swap all my good stuff into or just another one in good shape that somebody will have pity on me and sell me for cheap ($2500 or less preferably). Not looking for a handout, just telling a funny but true story and I really am looking for another one if you know where ones at near Missoula, MT. Thanks,

sounds like a ****y deal.

Dang! Sorry to hear about your bad luck with your Fox. Check out Corral.net. Or even find a 4 cylinder to use as a donor body for the swap.

Thanks for the replies. I am looking for either four cylinder or 5.0 (I'd like to get a coupe). If I can find a 5.0 without engine would be the easiest, or just a complete one would be ok. I've got all the lowering springs, subframe connectors, and four wheel discs on this car already for a swap. I'm thinking about parting it out and just starting over with another lx or gt, cuz I'm pretty sure this thing is evil and hates me (like most things). I'll try to post pics of the carnage later.

Might be worth looking into: Craigslist Ad

worthless without pics.

Thanks for helping, I'll give that guy a call. As far as the pics go, I am a computer idiot and I've got the pics of my face right after it happened on my phone, but I'll get some of the car also-its still in my driveway and I still fire it up and have to move it to get the other car in and out of the garage. I'll have a friend here tomorrow with a little more knowledge than me about things like getting them posted. Every time I don't think I could get any uglier I manage to find a way to do it. Oh well, the girls at the new Hooters in town don't seem to mind
