To put it another way, why do you guys bother to build cars when you can go buy a new one already done from Ford? It would be much easier and (in some cases) cheaper. "You're not that dumb, are you?" (corrected that grammar error for you Big Joe  ) The original posters priorities are different than yours, he has access to the resources, wants to use American made steel, and will probably learn something good in the process, something that maybe will help one of you out someday when you have a question. What is so wrong with that?

Man if ford has any fox bodies left I will gladly take an 85Gt instead of spending the 20k on mine. All everyone did was bitch and moan because we never had the junk chevy did, now your going beyond backwards. If your an aspiring machinist you may learn something, but if your doing this just to do it, its silly. I think I am going back to building strokers with chevy pistons and 300 rods
