I'm a gm guy and for someone young and new I always say fox body the newer the better it will have the latest and greatest from the manufacturer. If your not brand specific the 5.0 is great but a LS is lighter and just as cheap to build. I personally would first add subframe connectors then work the suspension and brakes from there. No point in adding power to a flimsy chassis and suspension if you can't use it. Used parts will be your best friend. Join some websites they will probably have a classified section. Then just go have fun do what mark says...drive the crap out of it just don't get stupid. Oh if you get a fox body.....convert those stupid 4 lug wheels over. Cheap easy way is Lincoln mark 8 front rotors and 2 right side aerostar axles....i believe it's been a long time since I helped a friend do his. Good luck and keep us posted
