Hi bud I've been thinking about your build. I've owned several Mustangs over the years. Actually my first car was a 65', 6 cylinder, auto. I'm guessing you already know this but... repairing back quarters in a early Mustang the cars should have came with a drain hole in front, and behind the wheel openings. They were notorious for retaining moisture in the places. This would rust the quarters out. Early 59' through 61' wide bed Ford pickups had the same problem under the taillights. Just a thought from a old man that lived it.
@@journeyquest1 back in that time though these cars were not as desirable so I could see that. Be nice to k ow back then what they would be worth today
In Sweden, if you replace the body on a unibody vehicle (or build a new vehicle, e.g. a street rod) and you do it yourself for your own use, it is classifed as an "Amateur built vehicle". In that case the SFRO handbook applies (from the Swedish organization for Vehicle builders), with rules/advices for the build. Your build will be inspected by SFRO & MOT & if approved, receive a new chassis number. It will not be a Mustang -67, but an "amateur built vehicle" -24. You e.g. need to apply the same emission control system as your engine originally used; if you have a -67 spare parts car and restore that driveline, you can use it as is. If you take a newer engine, you also need to transplant ECU, cats, Oxygen sensors, etc, all that stuff. An SFRO man will inspect your build, e.g. the welds before ground/painted, that steering & front end is properly built, there is a maximum allowed hp/weight ratio & other stuff.... Shortly, that the car is properly built & safe.
Looking sharp, but just curious if you have the spare $, why not order enough carbon fiber and duplicate every piece, using this kit to make the molds, and have a secondary super car that's modeled after a classic?
AWESOME PROJECT!!!!!! Can you add links to the companies you sourced the parts for this build?? Do you know if similar panels are available for a 71-73 Mustang fastback??
So, does the car title and registration read as a 1967 Mustang or as a 2024 kit car and how does smog work? I live in Commiefornia and the smog rules here are horrendous! Will it need to pass smog as a new car or a classic car?

Beautiful to own a brand new 67 fastback but I don't like the idea of trying to sell it will a state ( or province ) given vin number it will not bring in the same value as a actual 67 fastback on its original vin.
That makes a lot more sense to build it yourself you get a lot better build. No surprises or rust . I could care less if it's real . I would rather it be solid and rust free I want to drive it not look at it . Thanks for the information.
@@arthurgay5746 the only way I can guarantee something is done right is to do it myself, I watched those videos of guys who ordered the or assemble body with horrible gaps
Just started thia video but I aee you only saved around 7k by building it yourself. I think I would have just paid the extra 7k and had more of a head start on the build. I understand that you did it more for the channel to show the work being done though. I have thought about this before with other cars as well and cant wait to hear about the registration part of this. Thanks for this upload here.
The bottom line question is this: How much are you willing to pay for a clean, original title? When you buy a 50 or more year old car, you are actually buying the VIN plate and the title. Then you can expect to pay tens of thousands of dollars to make the body rust and Bondo free. That is the reality of owning an older classic. Or learn to do body work and paint.
But what is it registered as. I know the car is a 67 shelby mustang but in reality it isn't. would it be consider a clone? What does the title say it is. I'm curious
@@1194video So there is nothing indicating that the car is basically a home built car besides the VIN#? I'm sorry for the questions I honestly don't know these things.
@@draggerlane04090 pretty much, most ppl use the vin off an Origional car so in that case nobody would know but for me that’s what makes it so much better is the fact it’s a brand new car with no rust

Why would you register it, don't you know when you do that you turn it over to the state...... Do some research and find out about this...... The only title you get is a certificate of title that there is a title somewhere.... Wake up!
