I thought this may be an interesting build for some of you.

The projects theme is to produce a classic looking car whilst running sensible modern upgrades underneath to make it easier to live with and maybe a little more powerful.......

What a clean and tidy rebuild, also a great looking Mustang.

looks like it will be a great pony when finished, have to say the sound system is a waste of effort as you won't hear it, trust me.

Well the exhaust note is beautiful with a 347 stroker, but the sound deadening is also a heat insulator, helping keep the car cooler in summer. Our last mustang had a brilliant sound system and it really did work, especially on longer journeys!

Thanks for the comments.

Al, any updates here? Hopefully the car has even completed. I'd be interested in the remainder if the build.9
