I dislike most current domestics but back in the day they were awesome cars now they are just poor quality POS. Nice ride

 

I like the houses in the background more

I was born in 1960. My father bought the first 1964 mustang with the larger motor. I remember that car well. It was the same color as yours and hauled ass ! He traded it in for the first 1971 Toyota Celica, anyone remembers those ? It was sky blue, with red and navy stripes and it hauled ass too ! By then I was 12 and I'll stop here.......
Your car brought lots of family memories !

Thanks !

 

yeah, the car is really a beauty. I think everywhere I go with it, people talk to me about it -- I never get to where I am going in time .

nice ride!! An old friend of mine used to have one of those...

289 in it?

 

Yes you are intelligent. Back then cars were 10x worse with reliability.

Anyway, im not a big Ford fan, but as far as Stangs go it is deffinitly a preety one. Good job.

 

I Know but at least thry were nice looking cars

 

where do u find this beauty?this is really cool

 

There is a CL in the background.

 

Wow...Great car.

It's shame what the Mustang has come to. Actually, it's disgraceful.

:thumbsdn: :thumbsdn: :shakehd: :shakehd:

 

nice dakota

 

Very awesome, that is a car I plan to have one of these days.

 

take a look at my 69 Mach I http://stpwh01.atl.mediaone.net/jtree007/
I love old mustangs, great cars

 

what size is the motor

 

that looks pimp how the front is a little higher in the front. great looking car, but too bad mustangs aren't as beautiful as they once were.

Fastback is the best body style. Didn't Ford make a GT350 with the same basic body? I loved that car when it was setup for TransAm racing!

 

Nice car. I had a 1964 1/2 Red Mustang convertible as my first car. Mechanicals were OK but paint color was extremely faded by the time I got it (1978). I drove the crap out of it for several more years before it started to fall apart faster than I could afford to repair it. I traded it in for a chump change.

 

Those pics are great. I am in the very slow process of fixing up a 1964 1/2 Mustang Converible. It is the same color as that one. It has the 289, 4 barrell carb, and automatic. I can't wait to have it finished. I hope it looks as good as yours.

 

Damn now that is hot!!

I think the guy who started the thread jus got showed up.:P

 

Juice ! Boutte Louisiana ! I'm from New Iberia Louisiana.........Nice to see Southerners !

 

Wow! Thanks people who responded to my thread. So many compliments -- you guys are a great bunch of people! Well, a couple of items to take care of

1) MACH 1 : whoever had the mach 1 -- love the car ... pm me -- we'll talk

2) FUTURE OWNERS : all you people who want to own one of these -- I dont blame you; they are great cars but do require a little bit of TLC as they are 35 years old

3) DECLINE OF FORD : yes, I agree that the newer mustangs are hideous -- plus, I am kinda pissed that ford really dropped the ball with the ford vs chevy competition. At one point, the camero was not any competition for the mustang -- what happened?

4) AQUISITION : I bought the car one year ago in the condition it is in now. It currently resides in my garage under a blanket as it is awaiting some performance additions. As for the price, I payed $5000 for it. It was a steal for the condition and the color and the fact that its a fastback. I have had offers over 20k for the car but have refused all of them

5) CURRENT ENGINE : the engine in there currently is a 289ci v8

6) PERFORMANCE : soon to be in the engine compartment is a 408ci stroked 351W which has dynoed at my shop at ~575hp

7) CL-S : the CL that can be seen at the end of the pipe stem in addition to the gold volvo are mine

Any other questions guys?

Man, I love those verts..... got any pictures? what is the status of yours?

AdamR

 

beautiful car... Always liked those old Mustangs... I owned a '79 Mustang which was the first model year after the ill-fated Mustang II. I have a '79 Corvette & it's great owning a car w/some freak'n personality & character like the older Vettes & Mustangs.

 

My mustang is my baby, she is a factory accurate restoration, matching numbers car. has around 64,000 original miles on it and about 1000 since it's restoration. 390CI V8, 4 speed,a blast to drive but can be a pain b/c it does not have power sterring. If anyone has any questions just ask. ya got to love classic mustangs

 

looks good.. but itll look even better when you drop it

 

fix it up to make it look like Eleanor...
heh, now THAT was sweet!

 

:wackit: :wackit:

Love that car. I am currently fixing up my 68 Pontiac GTO. It has a 400 in it and about to have around 400-450hp in a few weeks. still have alot to do though.

 

The new Motor Trend has the '03 Mustang Cobra on the cover and claims it will have 390hp (factory supercharged). Available in May/June '02. It’s funny that Ford will finally again have a Camaro-killer right as GM is ending its production.

btw, that's a nice looking Mustang you've got!

 

Wow, Greatlooking car, I am shopping for a '68 fastback for a summer project.. Did you do the work yourself? Do you have an suggestions?

 

Thanks for the compliment! I have done most of the work either myself or with a couple buds and some alcohol!
