Default The other obsession...

The wife and I are well into the build and it should have fresh paint by next week.

When we picked it up.

The clean re-built 289 is what sold me.

Trim, windows, and interior removed.

Waiting on a new floor pan.

Much better.

I knew this fender had problems, but had no idea how much filler was in there... some people...

Much better.

As it sits now, ready for paint.

Not the metal work and paint. Maybe the next build. Always wanted a GT350 Replica.

Very Nice! What year is that? My Fiance' has a '65 289 that was given to her by her grandfather. It's just sitting under a shed in my backyard for now. Luckily, we don't have near as much bodywork to fix, mainly engine and interior. Can't wait to see some updated pics.

It is a 67. EVERY mustang is a rust bucket. Do yourself a favor... find the rust now, and stop it.
