"update" sorry it took so long
Just wanted to give you guys an update.
Sorry it has taken so long, had to save up money to get the 65 running again.
( it was much too compicated for me to do)
For Christmas for my Hub, I had the 65 towed to my local mechanic at Ford. I kept him out of the garage and he had no idea she was missing. The weather helped too, it kept him from going in there to take his 05 Stang to a show.
I got her back and had her parked in the garage facing the door. I opened the door, and there she was ready to ride. He was so happy!!
I had Rich ( the mechanic) drain and flush the fuel system. Also had the brakes redone, they were in back shape and not working at all.
The good news is she is running as good as new now, so glad she is back on the road.
Thanks for all of the advice and help you guys give.

We are cruising up to Jack Daniels Distillery on the 13th of March. Then in April I am hoping to go to a 3-4 day celebration in Pigeon Forge, TN for the Bad Mustangs Club. Finally in May we have our clubs annual show and it is the 30th anniversary of the club.

Can't wait for a bit of good weather so I can get the plush out and blind everyone else going down the road. In Ireland are only 2good classic cars shows in the year. With our club BBQ a third. All others are dominated by tractors ... Great feeling to have your own car back on the road. I know it well

I think he does 
Its funny because I am always thinking about what to buy for the Mustangs next. Expensive purses and such do not interest me.
When I see a $400 purse, I see parts for the Stangs LOL
I have a list of goodies that I want for my 92
