Hey there, I am new to this site.

We got a 1966 convertible that is pretty rough and we are going to do a full restoration. The previous owner replaced the floor pans and torque boxes and disassembled it, but stopped at that point 15 years ago.

There is still some rust repair needed and then paint and re-assembly.

I am particularly interested in the posibility of using late model ford suspension brakes and wheels if possible, but I don’t know what can be used or made to fit, so I would appreciate any direction there.

Bodywork, paint, interior are areas where I am skilled so I am looking spread to those parts.
