I finally bought another Mustang project. This is my 13th Mustang ( had a 65,68 and lots of fox bodies). I found a 66 coupe (289ci/auto/ silver frost ext./ red int) that I fell in love with. It has been sitting in a garage since 1984. Complete. I mean COMPLETE. Matching numbers, all original (every nut and bolt), 51k documented original miles. Even had the owners manual and purchase paperwork in the glovebox. It will need a restore obviuosly but is in very good shape for a platform to start with. A couple small areas of cancer on the ext (usual places). The trunk lid, door bottoms, cowl and frame rails are perfect. The interior even has a great original headliner. My question is this... should I restore it to original considering the condition and documentation I have? Or customize it? I love fast Mustangs and would like to build a restomod but I would also like an original Mustang. Any suggestions?
