Have everything but my brackets for perform the disc brake swap. I'm using the brackets and parts list from www.scarebird.com Once I'm finished I will be in around $360.

Well its been a long time since I've been able to post. Got the swap done, but it was a major pain in my rear. It took me over a month due to many set backs with the brake lines and master cylinder. Then I messed up my old 3 speed about a month and a half ago, so the T5 is now fixed. Last week my starter went out at school and I had to replace it, and now the new starter has screwed up teeth on my flywheel to where the car won't crank anymore. The car ran for a total of 3 days with the new starter before the teeth messed up.

Once its fixed its gone. My parents and I are tired of dealing with it and we agree I need a better car.
EDIT: Well I just ordered a new flywheel ring gear. Once I get that put on and these brake fluid pressure valves it will be ready to sell.

Was that your idea or your parents? Really? After all that you have put into that 67? Until you get it squared away and reliable, you shouldn't expect a daily driver. Like said before, buy a beater daily driver and enjoy the mustang on weekends and special occasions. Don't give up now.

It was my idea due to the fact that having this car right now isn't great. I put gas in it 2-3 times a week instead of just once, the other car I drive is the same way. It breaks way too often and has left me stranded at school twice in the past 2 weeks. I drive at least 100 miles every 2 days from school to home to work and back home. I'm going for a car that gets good gas mileage and one that won't break every week or two.
They do agree that I should sell it and it would be more reasonable to buy another classic after I finish college. So I plan to sell it and buy a good DD, then after I graduate college and have a good job buy another classic.
