Drake Posted September 12, 2012 Report Share Posted September 12, 2012 I figured i have a build post on the other forum, so why not put it on here to since i don't frequent other forums anymore. Story behind car is that my buddy crashed it and is not the smartest person and just left the car on the side of the road. So the tow company picked it up and his parents called me and told me its mine if i pay to get it out of the lot. So that is how i came to having a mustang. This is a picture when i brought it home and was checking out what needed to be repaired to get her back on the road.Det_riots favorite picture of my car lol.Tearing off the front end.so i ended up having to buy a new radiator support and cut it out and weld it back in.this is after i finally found a new hood and got rid of the g hood.

Drake Posted September 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2012 The air bags had went off in the car and the interior was horrendous so i figured i would redo that too. picked up some new taillights on craigs.SO it took a bit got the new rad support in.Started taking out the dash This is when i picked up the mach wiring at the junk yard to wire it in the car.when i put on the front end of the car.the floor boards where pretty rusty so i started sanding those down.rims that i picked up off craigs for 60 bucks.

330CubeGt Posted September 12, 2012 Report Share Posted September 12, 2012 Good luck with the new project, Did you even care for a mustang before this one was given to you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drake Posted September 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2012 lOl i didnt get it for free... and to tell you the truth no, idk what area you live in but around here it seems like all the people by me especially guys i went to school with that drove em where douches. I was super into motorcycles before accident so there was no need for a "hot rod" car because i could pull the throttle and fly. After getting one though i can tell you my mind has definitely evolved and i love my mustang and love the car club scene/shows etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
