the seat platform and outer and inner rockers were solid as **** man, didnt want to mess with them if i didnt have to, you start getting into structural stuff there,...the floors were actually not that bad, there was alot of good metal under all that mess,..but didnt want to take any chances and have to do it again in 5 years,...so these should be good to go,...

Amazing...Simply AMAZING!!! Nice work...keep posting pics. You got me real ansy. About 2 more months, and I can began. I might go tinker with some stuff after seeing yours.

 

i thought the same way, i have three other cars i was currently working on , i was like, im gona get the mustang, cover it, let if sit for a couple years, and make this a LONg drawn out project, but as soon as i started "tinkering" with things, that idea went out the window

so it was time to continue tearing down the front end getting ready to pull the engine, and i must say i was very very very nervous today, you never know what learks behind these fenders and splash guards,...



passenger side, no rust,...



drivers side, little rust, nothing major, still very very solid with about a dime size home,...patch and some por15 will fix that



drivers side behind splash guard,...NOTHING!



passenger side behine splash guard,...goooooood!




after 30 minutes of fighting with 40 year old undercoating that is hard as a rock...passenger side splash guard off and awaiting new ones,...



garbage,...two fenders, dash, bunch of little stuff, and front valance, if you look you can see where the car was backed into and why he stopped driving it, hahaha, didnt look bad enough to stop driving it to me,...fenders were actually in good shape with no major rust, but just decided to replace with new ford tooling, shelby front valance with bumper, and shelby hood
