well my dad bought a 1968 mustang for us to work on over the 2 years, the stang needs a new hood $173. new trunk $173. new right side fender $173. and a motor and tranny , we are buying a new crate 302 with a new manual tranny. needs all new interior that will total out to about 1k for the interior. We are doing a candy apple red paint job with some magnum rims. i wish i got pictures you guys sorry but it has all original glass not a lot of rust.

so when we pick it up next friday i will be sure to get pictures when iam done cleaning it out.

oh and we are also putting on some nice Flowmaster Catbacks.

Yup, try reading the post. :nod:

Though, unless you just want the sound, pass up the Blow-masters. They are among the worse flowing mufflers around. That, and everyone has them.. Cherry Bombs FTW! :lol:

Are you buying the new body parts due to rust, or dents?

Hm.. Next time you guys are in Tampa, head over to the Muscle Car place. It's off Gulf-to-Bay Boulevard on the way to the beach (west of US19). Great place for inspiration, and they have some great deals on all sorts of cars..

Just remember, cars are **** expensive.
