I'm thinking about buying a 61-65 ranchero or falcon or a 65-70 mustang... So which would you buy and keep in mind it is a project

Thanks

66 or 69 mustang If you can find one in decent shape, if you find a 66 throw a 351w with a 4 speed or find your self a 69 an go all original either way you go be prepaired for all the thongs your gona collect in the trunk.

65 or 66 A code as #1
65 or 66 anything as #2

sure you can do an "elenor" with a '67 or '68 if you want

but '65/'66 is tha shizz IMO

So I found a 69 mustang coupe shell for 200 minus the doors and all suspension parts.... Do you guys think its worth it?

Posted by rayski25 (Member # 11363) on :

Naw it's not worth it just give me the phone number and address of where it's at!!! Lol jk yeah I think that's a hell of a deal as long as its not totally beat to crap

if you can afford a fast back any year mustang would be nice. 69-70 coupes look almost as bad as any 71-73. if you are looking for a coupe 67 is the best looking year for coupes. Falcons are bad ass and you dont see them as much

IMO, the '67 is the most difficult year to restore because of all the mid-production changes made. It's half '66 and half '68. The '67-'68 are the best styled Mustangs though.

So the 69 isn't worth it

Posted by SydeWaySix (Member # 3596) on :

'69 and up coupes are ugly as hell! Stick to the 64-68 models...but if you're talking about fastback, then 69/70 are good too!

What about a 61 ranchero ?
