Post more photos after it's assembled

 

I have 6500 in it now. It will be more like 7200 when I'm done. I'm going to ask 9800 and see how it goes. The reason I do it is because I love to work on these old stangs. I'm 50 years old and retired from the Navy. I need something to keep me out of trouble. Also it is a challenge thing too, can I still do it after all these years kind of thing. I'm sure it will work out to less than a dollar an hour when it is sold but that doesn't really matter. I don't just fix them, I drive them too.

 

Do you own any personal classics on the side which you don't sell?

 

My driver is a 66 fastback. I have a 67 coupe that is my occational driver and show car. I have a 66 Vert that needs a total restore. I have my buddies 68 coupe to restore while he is stationed in Japan. My dad has a 66 coupe that he wants me to paint and my sister has a 66 GT fastback that she wants me to restore.

 

I guess it kind of runs in the family. Who ever dies with the most Mustangs wins, right?

 

And you go out of your way to find more trouble?

Geez keeping my single 66 in good repair is enough work for me.

 

A few more pics. I've got that back half together. Got some new tires for the new magnums. Found a set of 215/65/r15 for $250 mounted and balanced. I was happy about that. I'm almost done with the inside. It sucks when you get to the end and see how many parts your really need to get it together. Needed to wash it is why it is outside. Washing cars in the snow sucks.

 

nice work, looks lots beter in the natural light.

 

Yeah the color is starting to grow on me now. I'm not a big fan of the Springtime Yellow but it is the original color to the car. I just hope is sells ok.

 

I'll bet the lights are flourescent and you didn't adjust your white balance to compensate, which led to everything looking yellowish.
