    Gosh, Mitch, this one takes me BACK. I am gonna go on for a minute or two, my apologies to those who dont like long posts. My dad had a 1969 Mustang Grande, very much like this one. The "Grande" package was "meant" to be a "luxury version" of the Mustang, but, at least in 69, was the version people said "hell, no, I want the Mach one!" to. My dad's was actually bought used, he got it from a young man who had just come home from Vietnam, and "thought" he wanted a car, (until he had one!). The car was with the vynil roof, just like that one. My dad's car had a 390, which was a HECK of a lot of motor for that Mustang, and it sure gave the car the ability to get up and go. The car started out as my dad's pride and joy, and I recall some guy in a Camaro wanting to race my dad, but, dad wouldn't, cuz my sister and I were in the car. (speaking of which, that carpet? I recall that carpet VIVIDLY. Mitch, that was so long ago, I was able to kneel down in the back, ON that carpet between the front and rear seats. (I know, it IS a small space. I can also tell you there were two bolts on that tunnel holding the drivetrain in place, and they would warm up significantly. That Mustang may have had the leather added to the doors and dash, I don't know. I also did not see the clock (broken) on the glove box. As I said, that was my dad's pride and joy, and then, it became "the work car", and then it became the only car, and then, it became the broken down car in the garage. When I turned 16, I was given the car. My dad told me the only caveat was, no racing if I could get it running. I never could. Like that car, the steel used back then was pretty crappy, your man is going to be in for a huge challenge to get it back in good order. One my car, the frame cracked, and was rotted so badly, it was not worth fixing. We were going to have it towed away, for twenty five bucks, as scrap, until my dad told the guy that there was a 390 in it. He gave us 500 bucks (in 1984). I have always thought I wanted to get another Grande, and restore it, but, it's just not worth it. Truth be told, I don't miss the car, it just reminds me of my dad. He passed away in 1986.

      You might be surprised how easy frame repairs are on these. A friend had a 6 cylinder Mustang that was a rot box. He found a pristine but accident damaged 68 Falcon with a 289. He swapped the subframes between the two cars in his driveway in under a week. Personally I would have fixed the Falcon.

    This made me quite sad. 35 years ago I was 20-years-old and had a '69 Mustang coupe--just like this one--that I had wanted to restore. But it sat too long at my mother's house and she told me it had to go and so, having no other choices and a complication with the title, I was forced to sell it as a junker for $100. I think about that car often and this video hit that disappointment all of those years ago and all of the ongoing disappointment since. I'm loving these videos, though. Remarkable transformations.

    Always get your car running before you invest in cleaning it (or give it a quick wash yourself). Finishing comes after your'e done with the mechanical. Also, if the paint is failing, there's really no concern if you take any off with the pressure washer. In fact, it's probably better to remove all loose paint now, so the owner can primer it and keep it from rusting out while waiting for the bodywork and final paint job.

'65 and 66 were great but the 69 somehow lost the nice lines IMO anyway. Then in 70 they got it back then lost it in '71 with the bread van shape.

    Awesome to see this! I was in HS during the "muscle car era"! All the guys I went out with had a muscle car of some sort! Much to my Dad's unlikeing 😂 I wanted a Mustang literally which seemed forever, finally got one....years later! Still love them! Just transgressed from a 5.0 liter with top overs...to one with classic clean lines, which I still get stopped and asked about my car! Thanks for sharing the video! 👍

    Why didn't you use your pressure washer to get all the stuff off the seatbelt instead of rubbing it back in even though you use, the steamer, it still had accesdirt all over it

    I had a red 1969 Mustang, bought in 1972, stolen in 1974, found by the police in a city alley, stripped down a bit, put back together, loved for two more years, then traded in. This video brought back great memories!

    17:00 DUDE!!!! WHY DONT YOU TAKE THE CARPET OUT?? Bro on a car like this, with That much Mouse poop in it, why are you not taking the carpet out and cleaning underneath, because you then wash the carpet in the car and any mouse poop under the carpet, and there definitely will be, just turns in to a smelly bacteria poop soup, I really like this channel and you, but this bro is my biggest issue, dude you absolutely have to take out the carpets, jetwash them and thoroughly clean the floor underneath, otherwise why even bother doing half of it?? Come on maaaan!!

    Incredible work. I suppose my biggest concern is the state of the floor under the carpeting on the inside (where it looked particularly rusty) as to how deep the rust went. I could never leave an abandoned vehicle on my property, for vermin (and eyesore) reasons.

    Hey! love your videos, i am car enthusiast and i was thinking about starting doing detailing in my village / small city, bought some products like APC, some brushes, glass cleaner etc. I was wondering how much time does it take you to clean whole car, of course recording whole process is time consuming but lets say without recording it how much time should it take to was exterior and interior. Greetings from Poland!

    Boy, does this one bring back some memories! Accel wires and "super coil." Black [hard to find now] Keystones. Padded Grant steering wheel. My '69 was a 351 powered convertible. The carpet is nylon loop. Pretty indestructible, though fading from sun is common. Lots of good times in that car... BTW, a towel or tarp over the drain will keep you from dropping stuff into the pit.
