THE MUSTANG IS DONE

By -
After a year and 1000 man hours the 69 Mustang is ready to give back to my son and grandson for the final up grades (when they can afford it) like  wheels & tires,alignment, re-upholster seats, radio, some of the interior knobs and handles. The car is ready to drive with new tires and alignment.

 The color is "Granite Silver" that is close to a 65 Mustang Gunmetal Gray.




New windshield, door glass and rear glass seal was done by Jim's House of Glass in Kingman.
 The interior of the car was cleaned and I was able to save the dash, seats and door panels. The head liner and carpet has been replaced.
 
 




 The rebuilt 302 engine with new goodies turned out grate and runs real good. The transmission, rear end and suspension has been rebuilt.

 Below are a few pictures of the car when we started this project.



Next project is the 65 Thunderbird that has been started and I am waiting for Joe at Hackbeery Auto Body to schedule it in for engine compartment and some accessory's to be painted then back to me to get it running.

Saturday June 18 we took the 51 to  the Yavapai Classic Cruisers car show at Mile High Middle School in Prescott AZ. We left the house at 5:30 AM as it's a 2 hour trip to Prescott and the show started at 8 AM, all went well except one of the trailer tires had a large blister on the side of it when we arrived at the show. I carry 2 spares in the trailer and changed the tire after I unloaded the car, checked in and had the car set up.  They had over 200 cars show up for the Fathers Day show and a good verity like this willies Gasser and chopped 34.  Chopped and channeled rat rod I think it started out as a Chevy.  1953 Kaiser like Karens Kaiser except this one is stock with a Chevy V8 in it.  Nice stock 46 Hudson coupe.  Model A very nicely done.  This Pierce Arrow Limo was a parts car when this owner bought it and made a hot rod with a Pontiac, automatic trans. and 9" rear end it also has the privacy glass behind the driver and a TV in the back
