Love this car, story, pictures. Thanks so much for sharing. I remember a street driven black 65 or 66 Mustang coupe 289, four speed car, running 11s in the early 80s at Salem. IIRC K code was a solid cam. Was that still in it? What did you install (engine looks great btw).
Glad you like it Brian, I agree it’s a cool car with great history. K codes were solid lifter engines, yes the original motor was still in the car surprisingly. I built a solid roller cam 331 cubic inch to mimic the appearance of a 67 Shelby GT350.
Motor and transmission back in, rear differential coming along. Found 5.66 gears with a destroyed locker and twisted axles.
Nice! Old style Keystones = $$$$ As far as parts my friend Troy's restoration shop will for sure to have any part you need. He specializes in very rare Mustangs...hell he has one for sale with a real cammer engine Kuyoth's Klassics – Car Dealer in Stratford, WI https://www.kuyothbody.com
I just went through this thread after posting, cool thread for sure! Please say that is the original lacquer paint and you are not going to repaint it. Nothing beats the look of dull lacquer on these old cars!
No plans for a repaint, just doing all the mechanics to get it back on the road safe and dependable. Trying to keep the old school day two vibe.
1 of 1 is not interesting. All cars will come down to 1 of 1. It's how quickly a car can get to 1 of 1 that may be interesting, but don't let it obscure the fact that what's most interesting is that it's a K-code '67.
Just came across this thread. Love the Lime Gold color, which Ford based their 2005 and early 2006 Legendary Lime Mustang GT on.
Thanks Tom. Wish I had found the same rarity of car with a Buick, but since most of us like cars in general I think the Mustang is pretty cool to share.
Right on. I personally like all makes of domestic muscle cars. And had a few of other makes than Buick’s
