Default Resto-mod

I am currently restoring my 66 coupe. Decided to build a nice little resto mod by changing the brakes to discs all round, dual exhaust, lowered suspension by -1.5", some nice 17"-18" rims, and updating the paint scheme with base clear blue color (not sure exact year yet or ton).

Have looked on the net but only found a few. Wondering if you guys would be so kind to post some really clean, really cool looking resto-mod mustangs, prefer 65-66 but anything later then that is fine as well.

Cheers
Rob

This is one of the best coupes I have ever seen. The color scheme and the stance is perfect.

search for Mojoe's coupe...that's one of the nicest ones i've ever seen.
iskewzm (sp?) has a fastback thats a little more extreme due to the hairdryer but it looks awesome.

Guys,

Thanks for the posts so far. Two very nice examples, i will be starting a thread shortly with the complete build up of my 66. Hope to start next weekend providing i get the engine hoist to the house..

Always helps to see what others have done to give me a better idea which direction i would like to go.
