(sorry Matt)I don't know about worst ever, but I get your point. Let's be real here....Fox bodies (with their stock suspension that was designed during the Carter administration) are best left to pealing away from stop lights and going down the 1/4, NOT carving corners. I know that and I'm cool with that.
You need to find a ERA or Shelby continuation series car to drive before placing final judgement on these beasts. Although they are big money, those cars have the IRS, steering, and brakes that match or exceed the original cars capabilities. And if it doesn't have a big block FE Ford engine in it....don't even bother! :twisted:
