Hello geomustang,
Yeah i got a tip....send the car to me for about 20 years (LOL)

What a find...great great great..... My only advice is to do this right.
The car will have great value so you don't want to rush or butcher it.

Try to do things slowly and well. See if you can find original parts where possible.

I would make a list of things that need to be done. Start with motor, then interior, then body perhaps. it doesn't matter how you go about it, but please take your time and do it right. That car deserves respect and care.

I don't mean to sound like a weirdo but man that will be once great great ride.

You don't mention your skill level and experience. Are you familiar with Mustang Unlimited and Dallas Mustang.

Also you should/could join a local Mustang club. They will be very happy to help you with info and ideas.

Love to kept informed of your progress.

Man what ride........ Print Dad

Yep. Wow. Great find. Just never think about cutting corners, because you want to do things right the first time. Are you planning on getting into a high dollar restoration or a not so expensive alternative? Would be great for this thread to be a continous progress on how its coming along. Is it all original? Its rough but overall it doesn't look to need lots of body work and replacing, unless theres a bunch of rust lingering in there. Amazing find. Were all jealous.
