@blanchae6 жыл бұрын
I've seen lots of cars slowly rust away because of people with that attitude "I'm gonna fix that up one day". There was a 67 Ford Galaxie parked in a backyard that I would drive past every day. At first it was a nice restorable car but after 10 years it was a bad rusted out parts car. Sad. Another guy, I met, has a 69 Pontiac GTO sitting in his garden on the dirt. He wants $30,000 for it but the floors and undercarriage are rotted out because its been lying in the dirt for 20 years and everything mechanical is seized. But it's going to be worth $150,000 when its restored. The last one is a local upholstery shop has a 56 Chev panel wagon as advertisement sitting out front. Hasn't moved in 20 years, every year there's just a little bit more rust creeping in on it.

Bought it for 600 dollars and it needed everything in 1970. I learned how to fix everything on that thing down at a friend of my father's junkyard in the Bronx NY. It was a miracle...that I did not kill myself in it. I drove like a madman at 18 yrs old.

Unfortunately, GT package wasn’t offered with a C code until 1967 (I owned one) it had to be at minimum, and A code (or even a few K codes) the fog lights and striping, and dual exhaust was most likely added by the owner. Very clean car, I love the torque thrust wheels and the patina of moss all over it. That alone would make for a sweet photo shoot. Love what you do, Tom! Enjoy this channel a lot!

I have an 87 mustang ordered from ford with at 5.0 5 speed with blue window sticker still on it and build sheet under seat. It had 15,557 miles original on it when I bought it. Vortech V1 supercharger, gt 40 heads, original Cobra R intake MSD ignition, stainless exhaust limited slip rear, stand alone fuel management system ect. It has until this year sat for 7 years after a fuel/spark and air problem no one could figure out. The paint job on it was brand new after I got hit in it. I had the whole car painted. Even in a garage, rust bubbles came about, mice, the new tires vulcanized, it just got worse. now to get the car back to mint it's costing way more than it would have 7 years ago (a new performance shop in town figured it out, Rabid Customs). If I had continued to let it sit and "enjoy" it, it would be worthless and laughable. That's like saying "yes that's my 57 chevy out there, yep it's a Bel air and a 2 door non post V8 car.

That mustang in the beginning is a 65. I have a 65 C code. The black honeycomb grille gives it away. Plus the chrome pieces behind both doors don't have the 3 long prongs that the 66 would have. 5 being the first digit in the vin indicates 1965. In 65 if you ordered the gt package it also came with the 5 round gauge cluster not the horizontal gauge cluster he's referencing. The original 5 gauges have been swapped out for the ones that you see in the video though. They're newer and not stock.
@05gtdriver6 жыл бұрын
Since it's a C code, it's a non-GT '65 as all GTs were A code cars from 1965-66. GT cars were dual exhaust cars, requiring a 4 barrel carb( A code 289 V8). Only engine option above it was the Hi-Po K code 289.
@Mr.Cynical926 жыл бұрын

Styled steel wheels were optional on GT as well as other V8 Mustangs. Hmmmm

Probably the coolest muscle car of the 69-70's, just didn't have the performance that other Shelby's had. One other car of the same year would be the 70 Cyclone GT. Just watched a youtube video showing the detail that went into Shelby production, when Shelby introduced the 68 Shelby 500 KR. Little things like upgraded torsion bar brackets, additional radial arm nuts, AC hose bushings, it's own AC compressor, and lots of stuff the average guy wouldn't be aware of. IMHO, the 69-70 Shelby is the best looking Shelby of all the Shelby Mustangs to date.

Easier ways to tell a '65 from a '66 than the gauge cluster. The honeycomb grill is '65 ('66 had horizontal bars). Those side scoops are '65 ('66 had 3 rays pointing forward). And the gas caps are different: '65 was clear plastic center with the logo inside vs. '66 being solid chrome with logo on top.

My brother n laws GT 500 KR LOOKED LIKE THAT WHEN HE BOUGHT IT FOR 750 BUCKS IN 1973. WHEN A GTO CHANGED HIS MIND AND RAN A RED LIGHT AND HIT IT HEAD LONG ON THE RIGHT FENDER. IT TOOK HIM 10 YEARS TO GET ALL THE ORIGINAL PARTS FORT IT.

That is a great story, and that's why I'm a nosey sod because you never know what you'll find.

If it’s a 65 it is extremely rare because the 3 speed auto was not supposed to come out till 66, but a ford manufacturer plant made a mistake by making about 450-500 with the new auto a few months earlier then ford intended, anyway its more then likely a 66

So, all I had to do as a teenager is be a bit wild and a poor student and if I changed and straightened up I'd get a Mustang. So, I guess that's why I got a 4-door, Datsun sedan. Thanks Dad. (Of course it was avacado green!)
