Thread: New 40 Ford body from Ford

Tweet

I'm sure they'll need some tweaking, pingin' and dingin' but it sure would be fun working with a brand new shell instead of a rusted out old hulk!!! Yeah, lot's of money, but it also takes a lot of money to search out, transport, and rebuild and old hulk, too..... I don't have the money for one right now, but I still keep looking at the Ford licensed '67 Mustang fastback.... sure would be a fun way to build one, be it a Horse or the Coupe!!!!!! Probably just comes down to a question of value and everyone has to decide that for themselves....

Right on Dave - I'd love to build either one and when I win the Power Ball, I'll give you a call and we can collaborate, eh - maybe do a big block as well as one with the Coyote 5.0 and a six speed

Be my luck the Mayans are right and I'll have the winning numbers - for the 22nd!!

Regards All,
Glenn

Yeah Glenn, there's still one more Horse in my future sometime! I want to do up a "track day" car that's reminiscent of the old A and B Production Shelby and Mustang racer's from back in the 70's, but upgrade the brakes, suspension, engine, and drivetrain with modern technology. I keep thinking it's going to be one of the new re-pop bodies, what a fun way to start on a Mustang and not have to mess with all the rusted, tweaked, and twisted torque boxes and substructures to contend with!
