common problems with 65 stangs?

[stephen4785]

Iv got a 65 Gt and was wandering what are some common problems with these cars.Someone told me that the "Torque boxes" in older stangs are a problem.The only things I know of so far are the wiper cowl,old wiring is crap,the park brake is a joke, and the window regulators need to cleaned and greased up for easier up and down.Other than replacing the usuall worn out parts (bushing,springs,suspension) and stuff Im not sure what the problem areas are.Thanks for any advice.

A 65 Mustang has no front torque boxes so they can't be much of a problem.

I think you pretty much nailed em.
Cowl Leaks
E-brake is just about useless
Handles like crap with the stock suspension in there
Old wiring can be a problem
Old weatherstripping can be a problem
