I don’t know what’s more amazing... The job itself or the fact that it was all done in a middle class blue collar hard working America household.

[@realtrucker9213]

All I shall say is WOW!!! Living in the UK that car would only be a dream for me to own, restore or even drive. Thank you for keeping classic cars alive by giving them a second chance to do what they deserve, to be driven, from one mechanic to another, thanks.

[@FixItNick]

Thank you really appreciate it

[@danielgriffiths2320]

Shame it would cost £30 just to start it up let alone another £50 to just drive 10miles down the road but a stunning motor, definitely a dream car.

Nice job I wish I could find some one to help me to do my on project in the future love the color thank you for sharing that great job

This is truly a fantastic work, Especially since this all seemed to be done outside your garage! Well done preserving that car.

Not a Ford guy at all and probably never will be but, this is one of the nicest cars ever built in history! Great job on restoring this beauty!

[@derpyy4577]

Diesel Ayres there always this guy. In every ford car video. ALWAYS

[@FixItNick]

Thank you really appreciate it!... you just live this one Ford Mustang and that’s good, those who only live just 1 brand are the crazy ones lol

[@derpyy4577]

FixItNick those who love just one brand are the crazy ones? I see you only building mustangs. You seam like a condescending prick nick. Lol I really hope your quit trying to throw slide comments about folks. Chevy guys always say. I’m not ford guy but that’s one nice looking mustang. And usually the Chevy guy drives a cobolt or a cruse. I’m not a fan of Chevy because FORD DOESNT ASK FOR BAIL OUTS OR USE TAX PAYERS MONEY. Ford rules. Ford started this shit Ford kills its competition no matter how many JB Morgan awards they claim to hold. LOL.

Nic, what I really like and appreciate about what you do is that you start a project and then finish it. So many on here start rebuilding and get partly done .Then go on to something else. So, really like your focus and dedication to finishing what you start.

[@FixItNick]

Thank you really appreciate it, having few people watching my vids helps me stay motivated honestly :)

[@deadbydawn770]

I really hate it when i click a videos like that...they let you watched an hour long then at the end it is still not finish..

[@Ironhorse41]

Fantastic job, epic piece of work and the detail - beautiful mate

[@johnslagel1015]

I can't tell you when I last enjoyed a video this much.. For 29 minutes and 12 seconds the only word that I spoke was WOW. What an incredible build! Your attention to detail is phenomenal! I want to hear it more! I just love it man... WOW

[@v1-vr-rotatev2-vy_vx31]

Wow. This 1967 mustang looks just like mine when I bought it many years ago for $100. Had 65,000 original miles stored in a garage the padded dash was perfect. 390 ,RUG toploader ,9-inch. And it was light yellow also. The headliner was perfect and original. And I made a 1967 Shelby clone out of it with tripower factory O.E., the GT brushed interior and black on black. 1967 Jerry Titus fender flairs , Lincoln Mark 4 door handles. Edit 15 years before I sold it. I actually went to a foundry and cast the aluminum taillight bezels.

[@sufianelbedour5099]

It's so amazing that you were able to take your time and rebuild this 1968 mustang I personally feel as if more people would spend their time and hard work for something they love.

[@FixItNick]

Thank you really appreciate it! It’s really rewarding to see the final result

[@trevorb7645]

Your choice of music made this video so much better. 68 Mustang GT500..The iconic muscle car..Legendary Pony car.

[@FixItNick]

Thank you, sometimes I’m worried to pick good music hard to find good ones

[@JohnDoesGarage]

I wish I had all of the skills required to do a project like this and you did it in your driveway. I can't imagine what you could do if you had a well equipped shop. Fantastic job.

[@FixItNick]

Thanks man, yea I wish I had a shop, one day, if I’m gonna get one it better be 10 cars capable just to have all the room for storing all the parts etc

[@MrKaci83]

My Dream car, I Will own it one day ☝️ great job by the way 💪

[@juanc9493]

Man i just found your channel and i am truly mesmerized by the work you put into this car. I have always dreamed of owning an Old School American Muscle car because of the beauty and power behind them. Seeing you bring one back to life encourages me even to learn to rebuild cars like you.

[@fjnagle2nd]

Nice job! We did the same build a couple of years ago, took about 2 years to complete (customer budget). Our build was done in a pale steel blue. The only difference, our customer had us do a 4 link coil over rear suspension. Also, the car we started with wasn't as nice as yours, had to replace floor pans, rear quarters and some work in the front. We did cut the rocker covers like you so the front fenders would come off.

[@FixItNick]

These are such awesome cars, I’ll be doing another vid of Eleanor I did and I have one in garage that I have to get to ASAP!!

Well done sir!!! On jack stands, outdoors...amazing. The length you went to so things were clean and ready for primer had to have taken hours and hours and hours that added up to weeks...hell, cutting the hole in the sail panel with a Dremel tool must have taken a good while. Having built a couple of one-off, hyper custom offroad rigs essentially from scratch, I felt every picture in this vid...a tip of the hat to you.
