    Wow, I thought mine was Rusty! After seeing my 65’ transformed into a Show Car Restomod at Mustang Restorations, I now know and understand the process this car will undergo to make it better than new. Will be fun to watch. Every Mustang Has A Story - This is just another chapter in this cars life the owner will enjoy telling in years to come.

    Must have been a real nice ride when new. Triple black 4 speed with the solid lifter engine. Must have been quite a driving experience.

    The Sprint sticker on the tailight panel, is a nice touch. Looks like lots of work, but being a Black, K code, it’s worth it. I use to walk to school everyday past a black GT convertible.

    Has to be one of the most valuable '66 convertibles of them all. A tremendous project, but justified in this case.

    A major find and score. With the rust free suspensions available from Arizona and NOS parts this will be a great car. The shift from 100 pct concours to NOS/Restomod is well underway. A, K Code built to current specs in a traditional yet Restomod look will be cool. Let’s see what you guys do with it!!👍

      Doubtful. It was acceptable at the time and now to transfer over to a different unibody that has some metal. Just like a body shop or dealer would fix it if the unibody was not repairable. My friend has a 350H that was a front total and he transferred it all over to his FB car. Sure it is part of the story but do you have the money that car is worth now restored?

    I can't believe its been almost 30 years since I searched Auto Buyers for 9 months to find a 65 289 4spd numbers matching fastback. In daily driver condition, it was about $6,300.00 Now a rusty shell costs that much.
