I plan on bringing it to my body/paint guy in a few weeks to get the whole car prepped/painted, not sure what color yet. I was going to do the eleanor thing but changed my mind. Disc for all four corners,new suspension. I have black interior it just needs to be installed. Some wheels (still undecided) and lastly put a little more ponies under the hood.

Sweet! I say keep it the blue color, it looks lighter in the 1st pic.. but that might be faded paint. But the blue in the second pic is KILLER. Nice find bro!!

please don't make it an elenbore. everyone does that no one does their own thing, make it a nice restomod with your own personal style. i like the true shelby gt500 look but with a few changes.

So what are your plans for it? Are you going to keep the 289? how does the rest of the car look? Pretty straight body? Have you pulled the rug up yet from the floorpans lol Floorpans are only 18 or 19 dollars from Mustangplus...

Im not sure if im going to keep the 289 or not. Its stripped down on the inside. The only thing on the inside right now is the drivers seat, I just fixed that this morning so I can move it back and forth. The floorpans are in good shape. One ding on the drivers side door other than than pretty straight. I picked up a mustangplus catalog from the goodguys yesterday, been looking at it every chance I get.

I have all the interior.Im dropping it off at the end of the month to start the restoration they quoted me a min. 4 months for it to be done. The only thing they are not doing is the motor and tranny. Still undecided on a color and motor/tranny.
Im going to take pics every week or so
