Really nice work, man but c'mon...that car was not rusty. My car was rusty...

Keep it up. Your work is an inspiration when I desperately need it. |

I have flush mount glass kits coming out for these 64-68 Mustang's, and when working with the cars, I like the 65-66 much better than the 67-68. I am not sure why the later brings more money, it has some odd lines and proportions.

We have a new rear panel so Brian removed the old one. This will save a lot of time.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...ustang/282.jpg After the panel was removed he had to make a patch for the front trunk floor http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...ustang/283.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...ustang/284.jpg After Brian cleaned up the plug welds http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...ustang/285.jpg |
Tell Brian I enjoy seeing his work.

I feel your pain fastback.. this is what I started with..

Fitting the trunk floor and gas tank
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...ustang/288.jpg Next step was to test fit the quarters, taillight panel and deck lid. Once everything is lined up the trunk floor will be drilled and plug welded. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...ustang/289.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...ustang/290.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...ustang/291.jpg |
Excellent work :thumbsup:

Now that the rear panels fit it is time to prep the frame rails. As Brian was cleaning the front trunk floor he found a few rust pin holes. He cut out the bad area and made three patches one at a time to keep it from warping the edge that hangs down.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...ustang/292.jpg Brian ground all the welds on the patch than brushed a heavy coat of epoxy in the frame rails http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...ustang/293.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...ustang/299.jpg |
