A little over 18 months ago my then 16 yr old son and I started on a rust bucket that now resembles a nice car. I promised him he would be able to drive it to his Senior prom...and we did it! What a sense of accomplishment. It was worth every freakin hour spent. Check it out....

Thats great John, the car looks great too. The only surprising thing for me is that your son's prom is early! Mine isn't for a couple months, and I can't wait to drive my car there too.
So whats the next car you're going to do???

Amazing work. I think this thread is an inspiration to anyone with a project Mustang.
Your son will always appreciate what you did for him with that car.
Good job, Dad!
