1966 Ford Mustang fastback conversion

Trimmed ready for the unit sides. In-depth look at the Calw Area

[@TheGeonam]

I have built one brand new 65 and used a convertible chassis. That chassis rocker panels are like having eye beam on each side of the car which gives it a lot more strength and support for any horse power you would want to use. Not bad mouthing your project at all. Your advice is spot on because watching videos and using the internet for information was how I came across using the convertible chassis

[@chicobooze1]

The convertible floors are much stronger. They have that cross brace that sandwiches The floor. And that really thick inner rocker brace , I may do that on the next conversion. That’s a really good idea!

Great explanation and I really appreciate the detailed views of what's needed to do the conversion. Thank you and keep up the great progress!

Thank you for the Kind words, and thank you for watching

For me '65 '66 looks more proportional in a coupe than fastback. 'For '67 '68 more proportional in a fastback since the lines are more curved. Thanks for the video.

Hi, what brand conversion?where did you get the conversion from?

[@chicobooze1]

I bought all the parts from a place called Kentucky mustangs. They treated me well and everything that I needed basically came in a kit form and they have each piece. All the parts are Dinacorn

how much would a shop charge you to do this?

[@chicobooze1]

That’s a tough question because it would vary from shop to shop. If they bid the job for actual hours then it would depend on what they charge per hour. Or if another shop just gave you a dollar amount to do each portion of the job, metal work. Bodywork. Paint work. It all could vary a lot
