I found my brothers dream car for him.

This is not a Mopar, but it is a good story and what I will be working on quite a bit in the next 3 years.

My next youngest brother has always wanted a 1967 to 1970 fastback Mustang ever since I owned a 1970 Mach 1 back in the mid 70,s. I have been looking for a few years for one he could afford as they are way over priced. I finally did it. I knew of one for the last 10 years that was a basket case and being stored in a garage for the last 36 years. I knew the owener was never going to rebuild it and it was a matter of waiting him out until he realized it. I had told him a few times that if he ever decided to sell to call me. Last week I got an email from his wife. The car was for sale and I had first dibs. I told her consider it sold. She said she didn't even give me a price. I said it doesn't matter, that I knew she and her husband would treat me right. Well, treating me right was $3000. My brother is walking on air. He can't believe he finally has a car he can build. He has had a 67 Mustang Coupe sitting in his back yard for 5 years that he took as payment for a job he did. I knew he would never do anything with it as it was not the car he wanted. It is now for sale. LOL

The fastback is a complete car, just in boxes. It comes with extra parts such as OEM replacement fenders for the rust you can see in the pics. He already has new frame rails to weld in so I will help him with that. He is going to replace both sides of the floor as they are weak. I told him do it now while the car is apart. The interior is brand new except for the drivers seat bottom which has one seam torn.

It comes complete with the numbers matching drive train which is a 302/C4 combo. The plan is for me to build a 347 out of it in the 400HP range. The 9 inch out back will handle anything I build for him. I have no idea what gears are in it.

I think he did pretty good for the price.
