*** SOLD *** Thanks for your comments.
Because of medical issues, I am unable to complete this restoration. The serious work has been done; it now needs glass (included), seats (included) and interior.

Body-

- 8 gallon tank, 3/8th steel fuel line
- recovered front seats, new foam

This is an incomplete restoration but is certainly not a "project." The car runs and drives. It was backed out of the garage (for pictures) under its own power. A word about the pictures: They were taken with a small digital camers (Nikon Coolpix) and the color appears washed out on the sunny side. On the shaded side (e.g. left- rear picture) the color is accurately represented. The paint is new and has never been outside except for the picture session. The car was found on an Indian reservation and was completely cannibalized (no drivetrain, suspension or interior). All the parts were purchased for the recreation. The car was almost completely rust free. Some rust was found unter the dash pad. Sadly, as most know, 60's mustangs are often thoroughly rusted.
Some of the parts that were acquired for this restoration are included: New=N, used=U.
- windshield and rubber (N)
- rear window and rubber (N)
- side glass and frame, includes windwings (N)
- front seats, newly recovered with new foam (U)
- rear fold-down seat, nice condition but trim painted black (no idea why) (U)
- instrument cluster (U)
- heater/defroster controls and cables, (U) but new knobs
- left ventilation box with cable (U)
- trapdoor and hardware (N)
- trapdoor and rear seat latches (N)
- door handles (N)
- upper and lower rear interior panels (U), need paint
- dash cover (N)
- glove box door and hardware, (U) new paint
- glove box interior (N)
- oil temp, water temp, oil pressure instruments (N)
- radio-delete console for instruments (N), (oil pres and water temp temporarily located in engine compartment
- mini-tachometer (N), goes in place of clock
- Grant steering wheel and hub (N)
- California Customs car cover (N)
I have receipts for $44,000 (car, conversion, engine, parts, paint). That's what it would cost to duplicate the car to this pont. If you have ever wanted to own a classic fastback, this is your chance. As for price, I am thinking roughly half of what I've put in- $20,000. I would be happy to answer any questions. I can e-mail more pictures or take any that you would like.
NEW asking price: $18,000. (5/29/12)
