FINALLY!

Hey everyone! came home today with our 1969 mustang - First ever! Ive been wanting one for over a decade and my wife was always wanting one - looked online, and found a great deal!

The head gasket blew AS we drove out but nothing major. We will have ALOT of questions in the coming weeks

anyway here she is! NO rust in any quarter panel, shock towers, or hood wiper panel - these guys own a body shop and busy on a 69 fastback so we picked up a deal in excellent shape for our tiny budget

Had to use spare up front to get her rolling - stood for 2 years.

Thanks!

Well so far we have redone the entire front suspension system with poly bushings and shocks - and front disc upgrade, basically the works.. Sprayed front with rubber liner (herculiner is gr8 stuff), rear shocks too - car drives great. I rebuilt the 3 speed toploader - clutch is shaking a bit at mild take off so not sure if i missed the pilot bearing or it flywheel has some runout.. Everything looked good - nothing glazed and machine marks visible on all parts, clutch plate was almost new so i slapped it all back in cos I just wanted it rolling. Busy planning a 302/351w stroker (cant decide yet).. snugged up the steering box - zero play now-

I need a power master cylinder with power for front disc/rear brake -

Shock towers in perfect condition - zero rust/cracks.

Wife and I have been very busy on the interior - new locks all round, rubber seals on windows, trim..

Windows are a royal pain - I will need to weld in a driver and passenger floor pan - and have NO idea how to connect the 3 point seatbelts (upper bolt) - I will prob start a new thread..

Paint job looks great but it needs to be redone - some rust / flaking at rear window- but otherwise body is VERY solid!
