I bought a 66 fastback mustang that needs work. My first step is get all the floorpans replaced. I think this is the first step. The cowl is nice on this car. Please take a look at the picks and give your thoughts... If I get the 65 Fastback on Tuesday, I am going to sell this car...

Looks like you made a lot of progress on the eterior of the car. the undercarriage looks like a mess but it's nothing too horrible. How much are you going to sell it for? and are there any pics of this 65' u want to buy?

Well I do not have any pictures of the 65 but it runs and is very clean, It needs a interior. The 66 is what I consider a project car. I have a C4 tranny and a rebulit complete 289 that will go with the car. It has clear title. I have to get some advice on where to price this car at. I do not know what it is worth in this condition...

If you're going to sell the '66, don't even try to put an ad in the paper, just go directly to ebay. Any fastback is bringing top dollar these days. The exception is unless you owe a favor to someone interested in it, or you can trade it for useful parts for another car. If you're going to keep it, it doesn't look all that bad. Although time-consuming, if you can do the work yourself, the parts and installation are pretty reasonable. I'm a sucker for a challenge, I say keep the '66 and make a believer of anyone who said you're wasting your time on it!

Tonight I went and gave the guy half the money for the 65 Fastback. I plan to sell the 66 project and work on the 65....
