Hey all,
I was wondering, has anyone tried Fox Mustang pin guides for our cars? I know Foxes and Cutlasses were converted by Cars and Concepts, so perhaps they are the same. I just bought a set cheap on eBay to find out. I don't need them, but I like to experiment. Perhaps it will help everyone with these cars. Those guides are up on eBay all of the time.

I haven't thought about using those. They look like the rim may sit up too high. If it was to be trimmed it might work really well.
The cutlass pin cups are more flat on the surface, but if those could be cut to match they would probably work.

They look more rubbery, so they may flex a bit. And break less. I'll report back when they arrive. And great picture!
Yeah that is a good picture. Dhs1223 made a run 2 or 3 years ago of aluminum pin cups. That were powder coated black. I have a set of raw aluminum ones that I polished up. They looks great.
Let us know how the fox body mustang ones work. I'm sure a lot of people could use that instead of trying to find original ones that are in good shape.

I've wondered about just threading the hole, and finding an insert that would work.

One LQ1 in my driveway is plenty.
Did you receive them yet?

Any progress with reworking the pin cups??
Have all of the aluminum pin cups been sold? I'd like a pair if they're still available.

If I can, I'd like to get a set. I just bought another 95 and it doesn't have anything left in the holes............ Completely gone.

Ditto
Count me in too if any are left.
Bump for answers as to if the mustang cups work, and to if there's any left to buy! Neither of my 95's have anything left there!
I'd be curious to see if those will work. I should of looked at the yard to see if there were any fox body 'verts. Looks like with some trimming they would work.
