Lol I haven’t trusted a fart in years. I feel like when I attempt this same swap I’m gonna cut the car down the middle and deal with patching the roof trunk and hood later. Then the Wheels could be tucked in and It could sit low. Also this channel is so underrated

[@CaseysCustoms]

I’ve widened a couple cars in my day, it’s a ton of work but looks awesome when done. Thanks for the kind words!

[@rogerwhite3644]

Yeah. I would widen the 65. Glass would be the biggest problem. But do-able

[@reacew7624]

Will need custom glass for that, that was i thought about too but that could be tricky

[@tylerseabook9423]

@@reacew7624 plexiglas would be easy

[@bradpage8967]

I was thinking the same thing. Widening the body would save more of the structural strength of the newer Mustang. And the tires would be tucked in. 😁

[@rickregister9424]

I'm glad you're feeling better. Thanks for another great video.

[@bart9859]

You have given me some great ideas if I ever go insane and want to try something like this. I know this is not easy, because I've tried what you did with the F-1000. I ended up going another direction. I really like your videos and I think that the content is excellent. Keep up the great work, can wait for you next video. Bart

[@CaseysCustoms]

Thank you very much!

[@thatmaverickguy859]

I love your name for some reason

[@JS_CIC]

Set of with gauges for transferring measurements - Cut and label a set of 2x2's for internal widths of old body at strategic points, so you can compare them to the new chassis with lots of continual measuring

[@rustisnotacrime2422]

Don't be bringing logic into this!!

[@tubbs_above]

I broke my back in a car accident 2 days ago... And I have been binging your channel all day and just wanna say thanks for the great content, you have made a shitty situation better and hope you don't change too much once you have 10 mil subs, keep on keeping on

[@geongsi6991]

how's the back?

[@arbr1697]

just discovered you. way to entertaining :D

[@CaseysCustoms]

Thank you for watching!

[@bradpage8967]

When are the “LET’S CUT SOME SHIT” T-shirts gonna be available?

[@marsha821230]

Man I wish I had half your ambition on a project . I'm tired anymore and always busy , have great ideas and the want to do the stuff then when the time comes I just stall . I really love your videos and all the work you do !

[@Docmiller4425]

It is great that you got the Mustang body setting on the modern chassis. Keep up the amazing effort and I am looking forward to the continued build on this Mustang. I hope that you can get the trimming all figured out. I know that it is not easy to get it bonded together to fit right. The windshield will be a challenging area to get to fit right. Hopefully you will get it to work out without any hiccup's. Have a blessed week.

[@jack002tuber]

Takes guts to take a job like this on and keep hammering thru. I wonder, is the dashboard way too high up for this? Its poking thru the windshield now, and you still need like 5" to lower it more. You'll figure it out. I like it

[@rtistik94]

Shiiiiiiiiit... any progress you share with us, is more than appreciated. I'm sure we're all on pins and needles, waiting for the next step. Thanls for content, man .

[@ryanc3219]

You do realize that cutting the rockers out is like removing the frame. Welding the old body on the floor (won't even call it a rolling chassis) will not replace the strength you've removed.

[@CaseysCustoms]

You do realize you can add strength back in right? “Will not replace the strength you’ve removed” is laughable 😂😂

[@ryanc3219]

Clearly you can't read either. Welding the shell to the floor won't replace the strength. If you think that's laughable, clearly you have no concern for peoples safety or its a lack the knowledge. You are going to need to add a considerable about strength back under that so it doesn't taco. There's very little strength to that shell.

[@CaseysCustoms]

@@ryanc3219 did you really think i would just weld the 65 shell back on and assume it’s done. 😂 i see why you have no content posted….

[@festerhairball6588]

How about side pipes IF you have to do big rocker panels. I don't love my idea, but making lemonade out of lemons. You'll figure it out I'm sure 👍

[@tompreciado863]

would it be a lot of work if you were to cut the 65 mustang in half and make it a bit wider so it fits around the dash but still be able to use the front and rear glass?

[@CaseysCustoms]

I’ve done it before and it is a ridiculous amount of work, but i am leaning that way

[@chillnwithchill]

I was worried when you started this swap. Because everyone of these swaps I have seen done looks like crap. the 64 just doesn't fit on the newer Mustang. It just doesn't look like it belongs their. Cutting it up and putting back together is the only way to make it look like it came that way. But that's going to be a craze amount of work. what ever you decide to do I am sure it will look right because you are the best body swap guy on the internet. Thanks for the great content

[@navigatingthedestination]

Awsome job. 👍 I seen a 67 mustang fast back put on a modern mustang. The guy widened the mustang 1 inch on both sides in the quarter panels doors and fenders and was able to keep the windshield. He put on a eleanor mustang fender flare kit and ran side exhaust to hide the rockers.

[@garlandhardin279]

You make me work harder! Love it just wish I was younger ! Keep it up

[@vortecmacs]

I’m curious how much you’ve weakened the chassis, if at all.

[@1957kwick]

If I ever did do this which I probably won't .I would split the car lengthwise and widen the entire stance of the car. because I would want the wheels to tuck under the fender Wells . I hate flares. Besides that. I think it would look pretty badass to have a wider stance. And to be lower to the ground. widen the entire car probably about 15 in. Use lexan plastic for front and back windows .🇺🇲

[@elmarko2641]

I agree 100% seems it would

[@elmarko2641]

I agree 100%, you wrote what I was thinking. Also he’s added width to other cars and it would look sweet to be wider and lower.

[@kazzTrismus]

lexan is crappy for a windshield on a road car/daily. I'd widen and use the newer windshield.....all those ld cars were way too small for me anyways

[@MRMmusickTV]

I just subscribed. Love the car mayhem. Kinda crazy.

[@bigsexymuthashutyomouth2546]

ATTENTION EDITOR!!!! You do a fantastic job of creating a great video of a gorilla making love to a football for our viewing pleasure. You deserve a raise!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂

[@mikesmith1793]

love the mustang build! I am an old school mustang man. First car was a 67, and drive a 2009 now. can't wait to see the finished project. Nothing like a good old SHART to shut down a project. Keep the content coming I can't get enough.

[@desmomotodesmomoto2033]

Why not turn 911 you have into a mid engine 911, with some crazy engine in it?

[@davidlouis2354]

would have been easier to make or alter an independant chassis for it. this is madness.

I enjoy your channel so friggin much. It's awesome watching you put your skill to work brother. Your a friggin animal. Keep up the awesome content. I've seen them all done. But never seen them being done. Friggin awesome to see the two completely different eras come together an become Caseyfied. Love it brother!!! I won't miss one of your videos for nothing. I share everyone of your videos with all my car guy friends an tell them, they need to subscribe. Keep on Keeping on brother!!! Keep on Motoring!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Man I tell you what I can't wait until you get through with this billing this car because you got a lot of things in your head going on but I'll tell you one thing you make it look good and right when you finished can't wait for this rebuild on this car and I can't wait for the next video

[@michaelstraub6237]

Make a side exhaust tunnel to hide and tuck the rocker panels

[@timwegman5776]

Casey says that's it I'm done cutting no more cutting and then he goes back to cutting. Lolol keep it up man.

[@CaseysCustoms]

I don’t know when to quit when it comes to working and filming lol

[@henrygibson1530]

I've been doing a body swap myself lots of cutting but have it on the floor . Keep up the good work.

[@HeavyChevyAZ105]

You sure get shit done man! Didn't expect to see the body going on already

[@Jimsathome]

A tremendous effort to get where you are now. I somehow wonder if widening the '65 body would have been easier. I know glass could be a problem, but maybe a Glazier could customize a shield from a different vehicle, to fit both the front and back glass. I'll bet someone has tried it by now...

[@ricardoregaladoburacio802]

Isn't the saying "sh!tting the bed" called an Amber Heard???? 😂

[@CaseysCustoms]

I was waiting for this comment 😂😂😂

[@parlordancer]

Do a ground effects kit to make up that 8 in section between the tires and it would not look as cheesy

[@CaseysCustoms]

Yea maybe. I gotta come up with something

[@simonwall5784]

Are you going to manual swap it?

[@bananabro1626]

"i do my shit too weird anyway" same

I like the way you think!

Casey, I’ve watched your videos and I just can’t take your sarcasm anymore........😂😂😂. I’m just messing with you Brother! Your videos fucking rock! I love them! This is really a wild build, I like where you’re going with it. Excellent work! Keep’em coming. Peace!

[@jeremywatson1036]

Fkn hack it casey..let's get crazy...I'm digging this man..love the channel..I got a crazy murdered out 85 ranger on full size axles ..bobbed..spiked bumper..

Awesome it’s getting there

[@garymccord4277]

Casey are you kin to the ENERGIZER BUNNY? There is no way I could go through that musch work, Will be a wonderful build when finished, That is if you do not go nuts first.. A+++++ Keep the Pepto handy.

[@craigmonteforte1478]

I’m a retired Professional Woodworker , i’m not sure how old your Sawzall was but if it’s a certain age and a Super SawzAll they sometimes are worth getting Reconditioned because the Newer generations have been significantly changed to a much lower standard and quality FYI i know in todays World we often think things are a throwaway Society and not worth the effort or cost but IMO the new ones are just Crap i’ve gotten to the point i won’t buy them anymore usually the old Super SawzAlls could take a beating and keep going i because of the changes Milwaukee has taken if i do need to Pony up and buy a replacement i actually buy Dewalt Reciprocating Saws now and i’ve had pretty good success with those the do have either a 9 or 10 Amp motor that’s comproble the the power of a older Super SawzAll or one of the older Porter Cable units in general most Woodworking Tool Companies stopped manufacturing in the United States and as a result Quality Control and other items have been changed to lower costs it kind of Sucks overall although a Couple of the older Companies that were known for certain models being the Standard of the Industry have opened up new factories in the United States to try and keep their position in the Trades Specifically Rockwell and Delta have a Router ,Table Saw , and a Band saw that they are againManufacturing in the U.S.A and are a high quality myself i’m a old guy and i have lots of Vintage Tools i’ve properly maintained and used for many years heck i have a RadialArm saw that’s almost 70 years old ! i’m digging the Mustang build i had a 68 , that caught on fire a long time ago because of a Carburetor issue

[@tompreciado863]

Love it! It’s really coming along good.

[@rdford2973]

I have a 64 ford ranchero falcon (pretty much an older mistang set up) i took a 00 mustang then did exactly as you described with the door sills and and dash plus i had to cut out the defroster vents. Her name is STANGCHERO.

[@BBBBBB-sz3iw]

I'm sure the doctors never used the word "crazy" but, like me they probably said you could benefit greatly from their medications. Hahahahaha. Keep going and keep filming.

[@ralphholland8735]

Killer build. Love that music. Who does it. Anyway good luck on getting it to balance out. You’ll get it. I’m sure. 👍😊✌🏻

[@jonbarc4489]

Not a mechanic or body expert. Watching these videos. Probably my comment won't be seen. I would widen the body to fit the frame. Seems like too much cutting the frame.

[@brainbotz3184]

Another great video!! I kinda agree with the other comments .Widening would that be a drastic undertaking I mean I know you got all new fenders and hood and alot more. But instead of cutting structural components Tuff call I guess. Now get off your but and make a video,lol

[@mikedavis3841]

Hammer it some more. 👍

[@bryanfranks1378]

Why not Widen the 1965 Body it would have taken a lot less time and you would not have taken so much strength out of the New Chassis you can still use the Old Body just widen it down the Center and weld it to the Rocker Panels you can get Lexan for the Windshield and Rear window it is Street Legal and cheaper than cutting the new Mustang up if you would do this you save time and time is Money , just a suggestion

[@holgerwittmann8419]

These new bodies are all way to wide, it would work with a later Challenger ,Cuda, GTO or Chevy Impala, all the lage Muscles. These old Mustang Coupes ware way to slick and narrow. At the End one always have to widen them at the wheels so much.

[@wayneosmand7652]

Not worth looking at widening the line on the top of your fenders and doors an 1 1/2" to get the width you need? at least there would be no glass or dash problems is all I am thinking AND if it wasn't pointed out many would not even notice with a cursory glance! just a thought.

[@johnwhitehurst474]

The rocker panels on the 65 Mustang is two pieces, you can remove the inner piece, giving you a lot of room. Suggest plasma torch, then drill out spot wells. Rocker panel on the new car you cut it open and a lot of it off as you have, put in a piece of steel for support and you can cut the wide part off under the rockers so it does not look stupid. You can weld them together under the car.. Spot weld them above of course. Wind shield frame split add a piece, split and move inner for the windshield glass. Tilt 65 mustang down in front and slide it on instead of force, then you can see better what needs to be trimmed.

[@Scott_G]

If you need any pointers or guidence on this project, take a look at B if for Builds channel. Chris acutally did the old to new Mustang body swap twice, but the first one was seised by the lawyers behind Gone in 60 Seconds for copywrite infringment. Complete bullshit... That one was going to be done up real nice, the second one he built was built in the rat rod style. Really dope build and channel.

[@frankm8533]

Food poisoning is the worst! I got it a few years ago from chicken at a friend's house rough couple days Lol glad I live alone😷😷😷😷

[@Enginuitycustoms]

Ya should've just cut shell in half down middle, hood roof,trunk, front and rear supports and bumpers, weld in widened strip on all those parts, having modern width ,sized shell, and as far as front and rear windshields cust have a couple cut/made

[@ryanmcclendon3309]

Second watch is even better! Gettin shit done!,Great job Let’s go,lone wolf pack!🐺 👍🏼

[@robertordewald8678]

Very cool. It becomes exciting and invigorating when the thing the two pieces go together and you can start to see what you've done. Thanks for sharing. Bob from Virginia

[@keithhaycraft3765]

It would speed up the process of raising & lowering car bodies if you were to replace those endless chain blocks with small, 12 volt or electric winches. Not only faster each side but, you could raise & lower both sides at the same time, once you got the hang of using them.

[@thomasbritton640]

Man your really good im 71 had those 60s cars when New ill spread the news about your channel you should be 100k at the least keep doing you and your podcasts has nowhere to go but up !!!!!

[@choony1970]

Bro I'm loving this mustang series. Widen the suspension is simple. Widen the body takes balls and skills bro. Love it.

[@trillrifaxegrindor4411]

keep the green house of the old mustang the same (roof,front windshield etc)but widen the width (quarters, front fenders etc of the car so it tucks)....every other effort on other channels doing this so far looks like ass

[@craigcaggiano431]

It’s a shame that you could not make the 65 Mustang wider to fit over the newer Mustang with out cutting so much off both cars and leaving the stock windshield width.

[@danninava9211]

This guy is badass

[@jeffkottwitz1170]

Mike Smith I still have my 67... just wonder how this build would go with just a little wider, and a longer nose

[@billleigh615]

Sorry to sound like a knob but it looks like you should take the dash out to make your life easier. Also with the rear wheel lining up with the arch it looks like the bottom of the windscreen is going to be somewhere in your dash. Perhaps it's the height of the body which makes others do the 6 inch skirts? Anyway you've accomplished more than me even with the trots.

[@damianjackson9084]

This things coming along nicely on another note did you do an Amber heard ,sorry couldn't help myself that was hilarious.

[@Ahenr224]

I’ve been binge watching you videos for 2 days. How do you get entered in the give away? Love the craft! There different!

[@brder4ev]

personally I would have widened the body and had glass made, you will have no side impact protection now. you could have just put a post in the center on the rear and front windows now that would truly be custom.

[@leonardwalters154]

She's starting to look like something, glad you are feeling better, you really should check your food closer make sure there isn't any rph in it

[@ckane510]

Still waiting for someone to add 8" to the center of a first gen body so it fits RIGHT. It will look right at the wheels too without doing the widebody thing.

[@bazilwreckerloughead]

I noticed a few times you said; " I'm not in as much as I'd like to be." I've said that a time or two myself...ask my wife!

[@user-fl1jv9cv7z]

Oh cmon man. The Egyptians made pyramids and you can't get this done in an hour!? I'm offended

[@TheDurham41]

Not gonna lie I had my doubts about this project..... but the second that body was on the new chassis it kind of got me hard a little bit!

[@davidteribailey3857]

Wow, that stuff is going around and around. Great way to drop a few pounds, except for the pain and suffering...

[@apollosmoon8658]

I thought about doing this myself but then I stumbled across your videos and all I needed after was a comfy seat.

[@bigdawg3793]

Nice work!!!!

[@demetrioreveles8017]

Most definitely, your channel needs to be in the top 10. Love the content, keep up the good work.

[@johnward1290]

I was thinking maybe widen the Mustang shell in order to have it fit without cutting anymore of the newer Mustang

[@tompreciado863]

I’m glad you are feeling better bud! I bet you felt 10 pounds lighter. Lol

[@rustisnotacrime2422]

Very heavy duty stuff. It'll be good and strong Let's cut it out!! Lol

[@tedwalker1370]

You could have cut the 65 Mustang down the middle and added sheet metal to make it wider. Did you think about that ?

[@barrysaunders853]

Thanks for sharing How many of us can relate to the effort is put in on shit, nice fun shit Dieago Canada

[@donaldhalls2189]

Interesting, certainly a lot of work but it shouldn't be too much more, it'll be great, all the best to you all

[@jaystandlee3971]

That is coming together great it’s already looks good I think it’s look very badass with a wide body kit one it

[@kevinmadmaxfan8132]

Coming along great, don't be a plunger and bring up old shit 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@seanodonoghue8248]

how about taking a zip cut along the top of the guards and doors etc and widen them there, cool project mate

[@RickheadWashington]

I wonder if it would have been easier to get the 65 mustang took apart instead of trying to keep it one piece to put on.

[@michaeldramis2349]

What if instead of making huge rocker panels you just extend the doors

[@Anonymous_Music]

Ofc I hated seeing a new mustang get cut up, but This builds gonna be cool asf. I can't wait to see the result

[@ryanmcclendon3309]

🤙🏼 right at 13:00 was the best! Love it! Nice work!👍🏼✌🏼

[@magniac3955]

Have you tried using a ripper claw or panel cutter tip for a chisel to cut those body up or is too thick?

[@shanekelly4836]

Definitely done with cutting shit.... Proceeds to cut off cowl..... lol

It was only a matter of time before the gas station sushi caught up with ya Casey. 😂
