FAIRLANE GT | MUSTANG GT | BODY SWAP

Welcome to Hartwick Performance!
This build was unintentional and very difficult, but the idea of having a Fairlane GT with all Mustang parts was too good not to try. We took two cars, each having their own set of issues, and made them one. Now it still has a long ways to go, but we accomplished this craziness all outside with the use of a sawzall (yes... sawzall) and crane. Talk about risky, but it was worth it!

This Fairlane is going to be a monster when its all done.

[@piercehawke8021]

You get that vibe as well......... ^^^

[@timhamilton5699]

I bet the neighbors love you! For what it's I'm genuinely impressed. Keep putting out the content and I'll keep watching.

[@cucina57]

I am too! And in a driveway to boot!

[@donsmith6045]

I've done this many times. It's called fun! Good dirty fun. Yes, my neighbors were appalled many times at first, but as each project progressed, the neighbors got interested to see which way it would go. There is only one limit to doing this, your mind! I love what that car is turning into!

[@randysrestoration]

Great Idea!! Love it! Gotta love the 1966-67 Fairlanes and Comets too.

[@someonethatwatchesyoutube2953]

This makes so much sense to me and I’m surprised this isn’t done more.

[@aired-downdisconnected4125]

I've seen it done with a 51 Chevy and a 80's caprice . Even has ac.

[@TheRoadhammer379]

It's actually an industry all its own, there are reproduction 69 charger bodies that get put on crown vic chassis. First saw it at a Dukes of Hazzard show. Search crown vic Charger on YT

[@blakegriffis3462]

Very impressed man! Love 66-67 fairlanes

[@S197Trinity]

I appreciate the effort put into this, especially since its being done in your driveway. Looking great so far

[@jerrycraig6522]

That's just cooler than anything, very impressive!!!

[@jimh3362]

What HUGE amount of work!! This looks great. Wish more kids your age were into this kind of work. Not crazy about your flared fender idea, but keep up the good work. You are inspiring!!! Looks forward to seeing your progress.

[@therealmcoy]

Im with you on the flared fender idea. I’d try different offset wheels or slightly modified wheel arch that would be less noticeable.

[@mcmillan1963]

Great job kid! Can't wait to see it complete. You're well on your way to a future in custom fabrication.

[@terrallputnam7979]

This build is very cool. Everyone is dropping 69 charger, 65 mustang bodies on newer chassis, but this is a little bit different and the Fairlane is also a sporty family car.

[@ezerod1858]

Awesome job! That Fairlane remains 100% Ford with that retrofit.

[@jamesrankin9833]

Can’t wait to see it!!

[@BigRockyD]

Now this is that shit I like!! No fancy shop lifts equipment just heart talent and good friends. Nothing builds a car better than those 3 ingredients baby, god bless! Looking forward to more.

[@smhaceofspades2813]

HOLY SMOKES I can't fathom the time in metal work and patience. GOOD ON AND ROCK ON MAN.

[@timhuggins7069]

I like the mid-sixties fairlanes too. My first car at 17 was a 66 fairlane. Then got into 65 mustangs. Would love to have a 66 390 fairlane today.

[@KravMike08]

Excellent work man!!!!!!!!! Look forward to seeing the journey to a badass end result!!!!!!

[@thomasdavis3998]

nice work man can’t wait to see the finished product

[@CarswithNash]

Very cool, good work so far!

[@mikeobrien3744]

Very cool. Can't wait to see it drive.

[@buckhelser1853]

AWSOME!!!! Keep up the good work!!! I love how you are thinking outside the box... and being so creative!!!

[@kennyguillotte1881]

Great work! Stumbled across this and looking forward to seeing more!

[@murto30]

Pure motor magic! Awesome job

[@brandona4618]

This was how they built the cars for the newer dukes movies. But turned crown vics into general lees. So when they jumped them they werent destroying an already rare chassis.

[@brianbidiuk3125]

Awesome! I can't wait to see the next vid on this build!

[@poisoncustoms3950]

That is an awesome build! Can't wait to see the end product!

[@scottbelew6783]

Very cool! I can hardly wait to see this project completed.

[@stansilver6791]

One heck of a project! Wow

[@JherrellCharles]

You are always doing some crazy cool builds. I can’t wait to see the end result

[@johnchopp3278]

Amazing Garage Fab

[@joepetty6923]

Wow!!!😮 Keep up the amazing work!!!

[@jameskillian747]

I'll be watching. Really awesome idea.

[@davidmatousek4483]

Interesting,glad it will back on the road

[@dugganracecraft]

That's pretty impressive, James. You should be very proud of your hard work. There's a lot of people out there that wouldn't dream of trying this.

[@SirTrinculo]

cant wait to see more

[@joegaskill8742]

This is AWESOME!! Subbed buddy,keep up the incredible work!

[@sonnymaile9325]

Love your videos dude. Your out of the box thinking is awesome. would love to see more in depth videos of your progress. I don't know if that's your direction you are heading, but video documenting your process is something I am very interested in. It's fascinating the things you are doing, but I feel you are missing out on some of the steps you take to get you where you are going. I have no doubt your presence on YT would blow up if that's the direction you are going. Again great ideas man. Respect.

[@davidwood1923]

Pretty Amazing... and Abitious. Thanks for Sharing

[@ralphmenta249]

That thing is gonna be pretty sweet. Old school look with new comforts. Once you are done with the ARMY you can do this full time and make good money while you do what you love.

[@joev4538]

This is EXCELLENT!! You are a tremendous fabricator, ... and even more as I guess you did this alone!! 👏👏👊👊💪💪

[@rugrataudio]

Love this!

[@timwegman5776]

GD my friend byou are my hero! All these other body swaps on YT but you are the only one I see so far that has went that extra mile I mean this is the way I day dream about doing on right down to the power windows and locks. And because the mustang is so new the dash and interior will look great. This car is truly going to be magnificent, what a great job man and I am only half way throught the video. I love it!

[@MrFredsAdventures]

Great project!

[@ernestthomas3965]

Great work! That will be one badass mustlane when you're finished!

[@jamesbinning2825]

Fairstang!

[@andrewhenman6111]

Wow, that is absolutely nuts!! Looking forward to seeing this one go!!

[@hartwickperformance]

Thanks! We can’t wait for it as well! It’ll take some time but will be sweet when it’s done

[@andrewhenman6111]

@@hartwickperformance I have seen a few old mustangs put on modern chassis. Never seen this before!!

[@keggortx]

[@boozer2462]

Amazing !

[@kennywilliams9280]

[@MOTOFLIXGARAGE]

Most interesting body swaps I ever saw

[@michaelorozco8809]

badass build

[@Dancing_Alone_wRentals]

Sounds like great progress

[@JSchroederee]

Hope you're keeping up the good work. So far so good. 👍

[@fixins]

Really cool project. Be careful how you refer to it or someone's widow might show up and make you put it in the crusher.

[@alshotrodsandratrods8780]

Not a problem unless it's a 67 Mustang fastback with all the special panels used on the original movie car. If you do that and don't call it Eleanor you're still ok and safe from the copyright infringement lawsuits. You can name a Fairlane or any other car Eleanor. The copyright is only applies to exact replicas of that ugly Nickolas Cage car.

[@The66RedDog]

Dude, you are my hero!

[@jeremypoore8426]

Sweet Project!

[@Indiansmoke1]

Nice job. Well worth it.

[@kimosabbe50]

Kudos on this undertaking 👍 😎

[@Granddad92]

Very impressive work.

[@johnwakley1951]

I think you Guys are doing a wonderful job taken 2 wrecked cars built into 1 keep up the incredible work I'll keep watching !!!

[@smoovefishing]

Great job young man!

[@michaelorlowski2364]

That's amazing man !

[@kirkfrench1311]

You guys got talent Great job

[@young11984]

Thats awesome man, instead of crushing 2 cars you blended them to have the best of both worlds.

[@shoominati23]

Don't worry about the naysayers man, you're doing a good job. And I hope it inspires people of your age to get off the couch and try and pick up a new skill or tackle something they aren't confident they can do!

[@junior4969]

Its awesome to see people do this .... It takes a long time .....oneday u can look back and say i had a go .... Self motivation is a big must in life .... Cheers from australia

This is a wild build, keep it up!

[@allenlorenz6383]

Very cool and very impressive

[@karenm6914]

Amazing job!!!!

[@TonyTheBassPlayer1]

I always wondered if such a thing was possible. As much work as it is, I still think what you did here, in the long run, is the most cost and time effective way to do a restomod. Awesome job sir

[@jaivette]

In your driveway, quite the challenge 👍

[@dorianfulton7168]

Good luck, man. Those Fairlanes are good looking cars.

[@yebelcampos6248]

You are an awesome young men and tremendously self motivated. God bless you and thank your sharing your knowledge and skill

This is awesome... keep it up bro 💪💯🇺🇸

[@brucerobbins755]

I just found your channel. Definitely like what I see, not just because I'm a Ford guy. And subscribed. Keep the videos coming 👍

[@johnhickman106]

Impressive work brother.

[@tomp1612]

That is ambitious! Good to see it worked. I would have assumed the Mustang is way too wide to get the tires under the Fairlane but it's close enough you could get away without flares if you could get wheels with more offset. The power windows shouldn't be much of an issue if you have already tackled the stuff shown.

[@berryfod7670]

Your gonna have the best driveway great work

[@615theBuzzard]

Great video. Love this project. 🔥🔥

[@bigcheeezzz7135]

My favorite fairlane body style!,, new mustang platform and you have one fine project!! Can't wait for updates!! New sub, 👍‼️
