After drive train was removed, the complete underside of car was stripped for the beginning of restoration process.
It has had the front floor pans replaced and FULL factory replacement rear quarters. (Both quarters had rust in
the lower rear). The rear end was rebuilt and basically everything else under the car is new.(gas tank, all gas
and brake lines, brake hardware and pads, emergency brake system). The front end was replaced, if anything was
reused, it was stripped and powder coated. All underside metal repairs were completed and then it was
painted/lightly undercoated. It also has new shocks, wheels and tires!
The interior is all new (seat covers, door panels, carpet, window/door handles and dash pad). The top was
professionally installed 1 month ago (all new weather-stripping). It is a Robbins Stayfast Cloth top and it looks
amazing!!! Power top works great!! It has a Mustang Brand Radio with new speaker, which has the classic look but
also has USB capabilities. The heater box was completely rebuilt with new coil, seals, cables and hoses. It still
has the original front seat belts.
The exterior was professionally painted in basecoat/clearcoat system in Raven Black. The doors, deck lid, hood and
front fenders are all original metal, they were stripped down to metal at the beginning. It has all new
weather-stripping and window felt. All side glass is original and the front windshield and seal is new. As you
can see in photos, it has new door latches, inside and outside handles and new door hinges. It has new emblems,
bumpers, taillights, front park lights, front and rear valences, back-up lights and a magnaflow dual exhaust. It
also has new front and rear wiring harnesses.
The car starts right up and drives great, you can drive it with 2 fingers. Engine runs smooth and it shifts
through all gears perfectly. In addition to factory equipment, I installed a set of gauges under the dash for oil
pressure, temperature and charging. I also installed a Be Cool pusher fan on the new radiator to ensure the engine
stays cool.
When I purchased car the underdash air unit was gone, but it still had all of the other hardware. I kept
everything in case someone wants to put it back original. The 3 groove lower pully is installed on engine.
Inspections are welcome, just give me a email!
