69351mach 10 Report post Posted January 9, 2011 Here is some pic's of my 69 that I have been working on for the past five years.It has a 351w with a 97 mustang 5spd,four wheel disk brakes (rears are from a 90 lincoln lsc) and power windows (homemade).Needless to say the car has been built on a strict budget and a lot of hard work but I am pretty happy with the way it turned out.

rangerdoc 22 Report post Posted January 9, 2011 Looks great...the car too ;) No, seriously...well yeah seriously! Ok, seriously...you've done a great job with the car. Is that paint jade? I see a tint to it in some of the pictures. The engine looks real nice. I can't wait to have a nice looking engine like that some day. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

69351mach 10 Report post Posted January 9, 2011 Thanks! Believe it or not I only have around $8000.00 in the whole car,done a lot of trading for parts and the body of the car was free. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rangerdoc 22 Report post Posted January 9, 2011 I knew I saw some green in there. I have a Bullitt but your car looks darker. I like it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StephenC 10 Report post Posted January 9, 2011 Is that the 3" or the 2.5" cowl hood? Looks sick man! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

69351mach 10 Report post Posted January 9, 2011 The reason it's darker than normal is that I put three coats of black base on before the green and I guess the peal changes it some also.Yea Stephan the hood is a 3". Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rudolph Schenker 14 Report post Posted January 9, 2011 Where did you order the hood? I also really like your hood, where did you order from???:thumbup1: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
69351mach 10 Report post Posted January 9, 2011 The guy I got it from ordered it through mustangs unlimited.Be prepared to do some work on one though,this hood was very wavy and as you can see in the picture it dipped below the fender lines in a few places so the whole hood had to be reworked.

Grabber70Mach 107 Report post Posted January 9, 2011 Looks really nice, like GJ should have said it.................... I stopped off at the quicksack for some beer & cigarettes This old man took my money as he stared at my Mustang He said, I had one just like her son, in 1969 Til' the man down at the bank took her from me Oh, she was hotter than a two dollar pistol she was the fastest thing around Long and lean every young man's dream She turned every head in town She was built and fun to handle, Son, I'm glad that you walked in She reminds me of the one I loved back then Well I handed him my keys and said, here take her for a spin The old man scratched his head, then he looked at me and grinned He said son you just don't understand it ain't the car I want It's the brunette in your ‘stang that turns me on :ohmy::laugh: By the way the car looks really sweeeet to, I would've left the shaker though. jmho Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
69351mach 10 Report post Posted January 10, 2011 That song does sound a little better when it's changed to a mustang! I still have the hood and shaker,kinda figure I will switch them out every once in a while. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
