This is Terry's and Jerry's 1967 Mustang. They bought it for $1,500 and although it looks rough I think it was a good deal. As the story goes, The guy painted the car about 5 years ago and then stopped work on it. Well, now he wanted to work on the other Mustang in his collection and this one needs to go to make room. 

Terry was going to put his Ford 427 Tunnel Port engine in my 1968 Fastback but, now will be putting it in this car. I happy with this because I can start my projects like cutting the lousy front suspension out and installing a Heidts Mustang II front suspension. www.heidts.com . This is what Ford should have done originally. Even Terry's 1968 Shelby drove like an old truck. It was not a pleasure but a job driving it I thought.

The paint is just to loud but serves a purpose. It have kept the car from rusting and will work for awhile until they are ready to paint.

The body looks pretty straight and no rust so far!

As you can see the engine is out, that's the way they bought it. It did come with a 289 automatic though but, the crank shaft moves back and forth a little so it's lock up! Probably rebuildable though.

OK, it looks like a bumblebee right! What the hell was he smoking? I'm sure it sounded good but actuality, NO, this is just wrong man!

See I told you so! The paint kept the car from rusting! The paint kept the car from rusting! The paint kept the car from rusting!

Not shown here but the car did come with all the interior. NEED TO PUT IT BACK IN THOUGH!  No problem, nothing we have not done in the past.

The car came with a 289 engine and automatic is what the vin number said.

OK, this is the beast that will power down the road! I can't wait to drive this one! I only dreamed about this much power. Follow this link for more information. Also, this engine is not for sale at this time. When Terry decides to sell he will only take serious offer. All he will admit is $10,000 in it. That was a year ago so he knows he spent to much and want say.

OK, during the week 4/16/06 through 4/22/06 we accomplished a lot of work. We started on the interior and then moved to the Engine.

This is a far cry from the picture above. Still need to install the deluxe door panels, kick panels and other small things.

I will add more pictures later. This is the engine and the headers were a mess to install. From the picture I think you would agree.

Thanks for looking! I will update this page as time permits and they do more to it.
