Was planning on a Shelby "clone" (see pic) w/gold strips or Bullitt set up. NEW Bullitt wheels and tires (NEW center caps included - "American Racing") come with car as seen in pics.
New metal: both quarter panels (and outer wheelhouse P-side), rear trunk panels/dual exhaust GT valance, taillight panel w/braces. Two new doors, One new fender - one OEM, new Dynacorn hood, (included is a painted to match NEW Shelby bolt-on scoop) new front apron and stone guard. New complete EXPENSIVE cowl (one unit - top and bottom) and new complete EXPENSIVE dash (needs painted) as the old one radio insert had been cut up. New battery tray apron. new radiator support, new RH Fender extension assembly, Recently out of paint (org Ivy Green Metallic base & clear). Curing and still needs scuff and buff (normally completed after build).
Good period correct 289 (stock - heads intact) w/4 speed T10 side-loader with bell housing (no clutch) Hurst shifter attached. New 1965 motor mount kit and trans mount. Also have trans crossmember. Rear I believe is original 8 inch.
Black interior: Front seats w/rear fold down, new carpet, door glass (with nice vent pillars) and nice rear glass included. 1965 dash cluster and glove box included with original chrome knobs. New door panels with new arm rests and pads. Nice original heater box and controls.
Comes with many parts - new and used.. new weatherstrips: front & rear glass and trunk..., Nice 1965 radiator, some engine and trans parts, nice bumpers, new TMI headliner and a roll of insulation (comes with org rods). Come with a 1966 grill as I was going for the 66 GT350 style. New engine gasket kit for the 289 motor. I have some new wiring (see pic) and other parts…
Needs assembly and some miscellaneous Parts to finish like the following:
- Needs new leaf spring kit (one is popped and one is flat - car is tilted from the rear view.
- Floors were patched in sections and could use some seam sealer. This was done before I got the car and I my body guy had a window so I had the exterior and paint done first. The floor can be seamed, sound deadener and carpeted as is.. just depends on how particular you may be. It’s solid with no rust either way.
- The truck area had some metal work completed as well and some "finish" work could be done (seam sealer or additional tack welds if desired)
- Needs front windshield.
- I have the old dash pad but I would recommend a new one.
- I have the original trap door but has some drill holes on it where someone was attempting to install a speaker. I’m missing the interior plastic trim that surrounds the back window, the vent cover trim and the upper and lower curved corners. I have the long one that is right above the trap door however. I also have nice rear quarters/arm rest and they have speaker grills on them but in good shape.
- Needs brakes and lines for brakes and gas run.
- I have new carpet but you would need 3-piece fold down seat carpet
- Car was set up for an automatic when I got it but I wanted to make it a 4 speed. It needs a clutch petal.
- I don’t believe I have all the inner slides for the doors as the doors are new but these are easily found with a donor or online.
I’m sure I’m missing something so please reach out to me with questions as I’m fast to respond. I can send you additional pics on request.
This is a very nice project to finish. I had planned on it but don’t have the space and time so moving it on to the next step for another to enjoy – good luck!
Possible whole or partial trades... AMX, Bronco, Porsche, Cobra, other Mustangs... even high-end Comic Books...
