Well the next project is a 66 mustang fastback, California car, very clean with zero rust. It has been in the pictured condition since 1993. I need advise on the front suspension since I have NONE. Anyone in Ohio parting out a 65-66?

My advice is your going to need to install a front suspension before you can drive it. OK no more jokes. What kind of advice are you looking for. I'm no expert, but I have a 65 at home that I can take pictures of if you need reference points. Its a really nice looking car. Do you only have the shell or do you have most of the car?

I have the interior parts that are hard to find. A couple 9 inch rears, a new top loader and motor. Door glass and hardware, rear back glass. I still need some stuff though.
It is totally rust free which is amazing.
 
Wow perfect floor pans!

I might have spindles and the upper and lower aftermarket stock replacement arms are reasonable priced
 
The whole car is super nice. I have looked for a 65-66 fastback project for many years. What years of spindles and control arms interchange? Just 65-66?
