1969 Mustang Fastback

Here's a real fixer upper, but it's gonna going to be brought back to life! This will be a long term project. I'm hoping Marty will have the body work all done and back to the rolling chassis status within then next 6 to 8 months. Not sure what motor I want to go in it or what color I want to have it painted, but that stuff is still a long way off. This car was built with a 351-2V Windsor V8 and a 3 speed manual transmission. It had factory A/C, and power steering. This was a 63B car, that means it was not a Mach 1 (which were the most produced fastback model of 1969), but it was not a standard "Sportsroof" either. It was the deluxe model. Mostly means it had a nicer interior equivalent to the older "pony" interior. The original color was "Winter Blue"

The restorer does not have a website for this car yet, but I'll post the link as soon as he does. Here's a link to his home page to see some of his other projects: www.martysmustangmadness.com

Nice butcher job on the tail light panel for the Shelby lights.

If you look close, you can see it's not been registered since 1978.

Here's how I found it, waiting under a tree. It looks bad now, but just wait.

Not as much rust as you'd think. Alot of the parts to put it

back together are in the Marty's Mustang boneyard in the background.

Now it can be better evaluated. You can see my Bluebonnet

Mustang in the background. That car will be done soon.

Floors are shot along with the front end. Firewall will

need to be replaced as well. At least it's up and off

the ground now.

What was left of the fenders are gone.

There goes the wanna-be racecar front end.

Good quality time with a recip saw. More of that to come!
