    I dont think it gets better than just a guy with a garage.
    I've never been a mustang guy at all, my brother was, loved the 69-70.
    After he passed I found a 69 roller and have built it in my garage also, when I lose inspiration this car is what gets me to grab the wrenches again. This thing is killer! All I got left is paint and interior. Keep it up!

      Depends on how much you replace...or just restore. Complete drive line swap or upgrade, not a bad idea to have a rack/lift or other shop equipment.
      I found out why most people don't use a small block C-6's in 1967's...

    Love that build out! Thanks - I had a 68 427 Corvette Stingray, 67 Shelby GT 500, and a 67 Mustang Couple EXACTLY like this one with a similar 302 build, aluminum heads, aluminum flywheel, blueprinted, 7k revline, and it rocked. Power to weight ratio and traction bars got the 1/4 mile in 12.10's at Orange county back in 73. This mustang couple model was one of the best for drag racing. Light, nimble, great weight distribution, and if you powered it right, they would jump off the line. The shelby and corvette were fast, but could not get the traction this one could and by the time the big block would start to catch up, race was over. Only lost once on the street.

      Excellent job, Gabe! I have a lot of respect for a successful "Garage Build." Having completed an engine/trans/computer&wire harness swap on an '86 Jag XJ6, I'm familiar with all the work and late nights involved! Mine took 6 weeks from In-garage to Out-garage but the end result looked stock from 10 feet away.
      The horsepower is always the talking/bragging point but Power-to-Weight Ratio gets the job done! Seeing a performance car these days at your weight, is especially impressive.

    I finally got to watch this video it was worth the wait. So impressive the work this young man did, fearless, never did this but let’s dive in anyway, that’s a gear head !
    I didn’t do a total garage build but I was fortunate to get a good understanding of all the parts that went into my Cuda...the worst part about someone doing the work is you’re a captive audience...the engine builder took 2 freaking years to get my motor done, he did good work port matching the heads and intake but so damn slow!
    Shawn you have the best job !

    Hey Shawn, easy way to tell a 67 from a 68 Mustang, Camaro, Cougar, whatever. In 68 side marker lights became law, so 67s won't have side marker lights on the fenders and quarters, but 68s will.

    Love this one! It's like a dealer day two Trans Am racer appearace package tribute...thing. At least I imagined it that way when I first saw it.

    I'm 22 years old. I wanna do something like this with my 6 month old daughter. Sure she won't be big enough to help or appreciate it for awhile. But the thought of building an old hotrod together sounds amazing
