66 convertible
« on: June 10, 2011, 09:01:22 pm »
I viewed a 66 mustang convertible here in Brisbane, it had moist tar over the vin/chassis number and when I took it off it was different to the rego papers and the door tag.

Someone had cut the d/s inner fender off and welded one off another mustang.

Is anyone missing a 66 convert from a few years ago I suspect????

It may not be stolen, it could be just another example of dodgy US panel repair, they may have cut the inner fender of a wreck to repair the vert.

Yes thats the car Brett_T

It's currently on ebay with a starting price now of $25000 The photo of the Mustang is old. The car no longer looks like that, it now has a rollbar and damage to the bonnet.

False advertising on ebay too, Lol!

Hi TimR67, Just for the record I am not saying that it is stolen. Just saying it's very SUS. Why would you hide the vin with tar and also not let people view the car at your house?

Hi Brett_T yes I am looking for a complete 66 convertible with v8 and auto, with no rust in chassi for $15-$25K.

It's a tall call I know, but I am sure something will show up eventually.

This Ebay car was registered till next month but he was selling it unregistered with no roadworthy.

He had cut off the structural strengthening support on the D/S shock tower to fit a brake booster too.
