Hello I just joined the Forum. My name is Kenny and I have a 65 Fastback. I got the stang from my dad about 5 years ago and has been in a garage since 1984.
I have an 11 year boy and he wants this thing on the road probably more than me. So I have a few question on what direction to go to get this stang on the road.
The car has not ran since 1984 so I know we will need engine work, brakes, and more. We also don't have front fenders other than that the car is complete. I don't want to start a full resto I would rather first like to get this stang on the road and upgrade as we go. But I would like to do suspension upgrade, brakes, and get an engine.
So first with the engine. Are there any good swaps I could do to like maybe a 5.0 from 80s or 90s, an Explorer 5.0? Any suggestions?
Whats a good suspension. Any good kits out there?
For brakes any easy disc brake kits? Any good 4 wheel disc brake kits?
What's a good wheel/tire combo?
Well thanks for any help. I'm hoping to bring this car home from the garage in the next few weeks and will be taking many pictures and hope to atleast get this stang running soon.
