You guys are funny. I actually think I can find a decent fastback for 6-8K. With a little work it would be a cherry. I traded my 67 coupe for my 65 fastback in 86 I think. Then in 88 I sold it for $2000[:@]. You little kids may think that was a long time ago, but I can close my eyes and I'm right there.

That made me chuckle! Dammit - I'm getting pretty old by the looks of things.

Valley - I think that you'll have to barn find one. Haven't heard if Dynacorn is going to make a 65/66 fastback but that would be a huge seller for them if they did. The 65/66's have gone through the roof lately and I don't know if you will be able to find one easily - HOWEVER, it doesn't mean that you can't find one. They are still out there you just gotta hunt them down. (I just found a '69 Camaro and a 70 or 71 Challenger that I have to follow up on so you can still find there relics just gotta get lucky...)

I've always loved the fastbacks over all the others - looks like a race car just sitting there. No coupe or 'vertible for me just the fastback. Nothing against them as I have seen some killer coupes and 'verts here on this board but what makes me go ahhhhhhh is the sight of a well put together fastback. One of the sharpest I have ever seen was in a Ford magazine about 6-8 months ago that was a metallic gold/bronze with a 351 in it. Ithink the owner's name was even Shelby...Unreal looking car - just beautiful...drool...drool...

E=bay has had 25 to 30 65 and 66 Fastbacks per week for the last month. Keep an eye there. They range from basket cases to outrageous claims, but they are there.

What's funny is that I just so happened to be looking at that same fastback on the Mustang and Fords website earlier today. It's even the same color as my K code, prairie bronze with palomino interior.

Took me a year to find a fastback that I liked and that was int the right price range. I'll never do that again, thing was a mess. Next car I think will be a 68 or 69 vert...............I'll see what the wife thinks

This one sort of fell into my lap. The previous owner retired and moved to Oregon. He took his 63 plastic toy, I got his HP. (It's my first attempt at an attachment in a thread.)

I guess it's to big, I'll try a smaller one
