Good to see the Horse motortatin' under it's own power Bobby!!!!

Dave yeah its got me stoked . I was also seating the suspension LOL . Now to hit the sheet metal . Couple small spots to address then a good coating Also have to do the right door skin it can be fixed just to much plastic .

Bobby, sounds really good must have been really hard not letting it rip. You just can’t beat the sound of the early Mustangs. Good job, I know the feeling when it starts coming together.

Richard well don't want to upset the neighbors to much . On a roll with it being really light right now they break really easy.

I know about the neighbor’s real well, When I was the youngest married guy on the block I must have been a thorn in their side. The cops would come each time I tried to blow the cob webs out of the 39 Ford coupe I still have today. That was 1969 I can still see the little old lady looking out the window when the cops were getting a good laugh as I wasn’t hurting anyone.

Bobby,
Eleven years and ya got it running...... wow!! Pretty cool.
You just might have put a spark in me to help my son get his '66 fastback up and running. He got it when he was a junior in high school. It was pretty tough looking but he drove it home, that was 21 years ago. He lost interest in it but still has it. Maybe after I get both of my Ts done I'll have to prod him a little.
I even had a conversation with Dave about fixing it up but who knows.
Ya I love them Mustangs too.

Yeah i quite it down when it starts gettin dark . My neighbor on one side is in her 80's and her family is alot of Sheriff's Police but when her grass is high in the ditch i knock it down .

Richard 39 sweet passed one up in the late 70's for $600 very clean original .

Sounds and looks good. Does this mean it is "almost done"?

Not to many complaints now living in the country. A guy down the road from me is a head mechanic at the Oldsmobile dealership in town, he has given me a lot of information keeping our 95 olds going it has 239,000 now he said we should 500,000. His shop is set up better then the Olds dealer. He does some high dollar cars for a guy running the big auctions. When he is getting one tuned I can hear him putting them to the test. When I see the double black lines I know he just finished another one.

Tom please do get him going maybe we can get his and my Fastbacks done at the same time . I know the slow period had so much pulling me away from the garage had to put it down and just get in there . Keep up with him he has a great piece of history just like the T .
