This is our 67 Mustang originally my wifes Fathers car. (couldn't let her go almost like owning a brewery) anyway he had it from 86 until he passed away a few years ago. Her mother finally parted sentimental ways with it so we could fix it up. Didn't know how bad she was under all the Paint & Bog. Its our Money Pit but what else could be this good to spend it on.

B&B A great job. You would of done the father proud. I like the way you made a great car better without changing anything one the outside. Nice sheet metal work too. A sweat looking thing.

You members blow me away.
Where do you come from?

Absolutely magnificent job!!! But how do you know how to do all this????

Some members, me included, have undergone pretty technical minor changes which can be a headache, but I then see a nice looking 67' FB, and the next shot it's got no front end!!!!

Are some people born with "completely disassemble mustang and rebuild gene or what??"

Again, well done, but how???

HI B&B_67_F/B,

Congratulation's on a 'monumental' and 'superb' effort, as I'd imagen the word's 'What in the hell have we got ourselves into?' would have been second nature in both your's and your wife's vocabulary at some stage...I guess most ordinary people would of just walked away...

Mate, all I can say is that your wife's Father will shed a tear of joy up at the 'Pearly' gates the first time the car is driven after the restoration is complete...

Most people call them 'just' a car, however to some, it's more than that!

See you on the road...


Cheers,

Trans-Am :cool:

Thanks Everybody for the Kind words but I can't take the credit for the metal work. I only wish I had the know how to do it all because it has cost an arm, a leg, the other arm, the other leg and both my wifes legs aswell. I did all the sh*% jobs like sand blasting parts for nearly 2 weeks. The work was done by a Family who restores Mussies, I helped as best I could putting it back together. The son did all the metal work and is self taught with no trade background. He has done a beautiful job. It is on the road but just haven't taken any photos yet. Still got a few teething problems but getting them sorted out all the time. Total time so far is 18 months to.

Either way youve done a magnificent job  cheers.
