  • A budget revival of a rough 6-cylinder '66 Ford Mustang, off the road since the '80s. It won't be shiny. It won't be fast. Documentation of all the fumbling around I did in 2022. This video is an edit of the first 18 episodes - 90 minutes of footage cut down to a tight 55. You can continue watching at episode 19: • The Six 19 - 1966 Must...
    YEAR TWO UPDATE: • The Six: SO FAR - 1966...

    Always have a tremendous amount of respect for people that restore classics. There may be tons of them out there but unless they're well cared for, we don't see them out as often. Rough year but so much work done. Keep it up.

    I've been clean and sober off the project car kick for almost 2 years. 0 project cars. Your video was so enjoyable to watch I started to look for another project and happened to Find a complete 66 coronet 2 door with minimal rust, for $1200. I just bought it this morning. Thanks...allot. 🤣

    One of the most interesting mustang videos I have seen. Never seen anyone restore a car with so much rust. Looking forward to seeing the rest of the project.

    I feel your pain my friend. I've restored they rust buckets for over 40 years. Not much I haven't seen. The frustration is always worth it in the end. Even when it feels like the end will never come. Keep in there. Your doing great!!!

    I think it is great to see I'm not the only one who does the best they can and just wants a car to enjoy. Without spending 10's of thousands of dollars to make it perfect. Just get them back on the road and enjoy them. That's what it's all about in the end.

    Enjoyed the minimalist approach to narrating and greatly enjoyed this video. The spring going flying and subsequent “f**ker” at 48:36 was me on every project I’ve ever done. 😂

    Awesome gem of a video. My dad had a 66. When I was somewhere around 7 years old I used to just walk around it and study it from different angles. I love the presence of these body styles. Liked and subscribed!

    • @tompappalardo
      @tompappalardo  Рік тому +1

      100% agree. It's a beautiful piece of design.

  • @duskintheforest584

    My '66 Mustang is a Frankenstein. Per sn it's supposed to be a standard with 289. That'd make it 5 lug rear and front underpinnings. It's a 6 cylinder, had an automatic with 4 lug wheels. It came with headers and a two barrel carburetor conversion. After finding the clutch pedal tucked up under the carpet, I just had to convert it back to manual. Best decision ever! I can get good enough performance to beat many metric wanna be racers.

    took me 2 years had to replace rear quarter panels, complete trunk floor, doors, hood, trunk lid etc etc. there was no area mechanical that I did not rebuild, engine, trans, differential, added disc brakes and a/c, too many items to list. my mustang is the only vehicle that I own. I still work on the car and keep upgrading items that I need to. 78,000 miles and running fantastic

    Here I am sitting in my truck before work watching you go through it with a box of parts for my six sitting shotgun. I have been cursing whoever worked on the car most of the way. Random wires that go nowhere and other half assed work. The battery wires were reversed black on pos red on neg and I didn’t notice til I had already drained all of the magic smoke fluid from the alternator.

    I have a question because I'm about to do some body straightening on the back bumper and passenger side quarter panel for this 16 year old kid .
    I'm asking because he lives kinda far from me and he doesn't understand what I mean, go figure ..
    Is the back above the bumper completely strait ?

    Carbs do make you fat but not as badly if they are complex. If you got away with crime in your youth, you've definitely paid your debt to society by now with all that work you did on this car. Made my 66 mustang look like a trailer queen. I feel like a lazy bum now.
