Getting the body of the 1965 Mustang to fit the 2015 S550 rolling chassis part 16

It is a big day for the appearance of progress on the Mustang build. With a bit more trimming we get even closer to getting the body all the way onto the S550 chassis. I think the end of drilling spot welds is getting near. Some decisions will have to be made as to how this car will look exactly.

I see you have jumped on the Mustang Resto Mod bandwagon!!!! I thought had a little more restoration originality than that. Vtuned, B is for build, Westin Champlin, now you!! You dont need to copy those people do you for your channel to be good????

[@vehcor]

Yep, Chicago uses the rust accelerator like pixie dust as well! Thanks for the support!

[@muskokamike127]

that was a real issue back in the 60's and 70's, then for a while they started doing things to prevent it, then in the 2000's Ford said "what, our trucks aren't rusting? well, we gotta put a stop to that" then went about doing things specifically to make their vehicles rust out. Like using duct tape to cover holes in the rockers (which falls off the first year) putting water absorbing foam in the rear fenders (which causes them to rust away in 4 years) and not putting any protection on the cab corners.

[@clintpeterson9028]

[@jd70HJ19]

Confidence is everything , not many can works around razor edge sheet metal bear handed without getting stitched up at some point 🤕👏👏👏

[@BrucePierson]

Great work. I like the way you think seven steps ahead, so that when you get to the point of final fitting, that everything is in the right place and the right length. I had to laugh when you swapped to the claw hammer. The person who suggested that in the comments last week will be thrilled. I'm looking forward to seeing more of this build, but in the meantime, whatever you are working on is always interesting. We very much appreciate that you take the time to make these videos, as I know it slows the work down, not to mention the time editing and answering posts. Stay safe over there and as always, all the best from Queensland Australia.

I like the way you do the right way to do things. I think this project is a lesson for all the others out there doing this type of project that are doing it what we would call hacked up. Yes hacking still works and there's a lot of welding involved instead of drilling but I just think it's nice to see the way it should be done. Thanks for great entertainment and knowledge.

Tuning in once again to the channel where the words can't and no are not part of the vernacular. You keep me on the edge of my seat.

@@vehcor I hit the like button automatically even if the video sucks (hehehe) because a) it stops it from appearing on my main page and b) because youtube's algorithm will recommend it to other people who like the same automotive channels I do...maybe get you some more subs. There was one from V tuned on his rebuilding a ram truck that I had no interest in watching that stuck around my main page like a bad smell. I had to click on it and stop it just to get rid of the damn thing.

[@ryanworkman5229]

I'm unsure if this channel will ever get the number of subs of some of those other channels. No stockpiles of brand new parts being thrown together and welded up, just secondhand parts fixed up with more secondhand parts, and bolted onto yet more secondhand or salvaged parts. As much as I like to watch frankenstein coming together, some people won't. This is the proper way to recycle old car parts.

I am also installing a Coyote engine in a Mustang convertible. Mine is a 64 and a half that has been in my family for 40 years. I'm going about it a little easier than you are. I installed a Roadster Shop Spec Chassis designed to accept the Ford Power Module Coyote third generation engine and 10 speed automatic transmission package from Ford Performance Products. The RS chassis takes care of the space needed in the engine compartment, adds modern suspension with steering rack, coil over shocks, and a 9" Strange rear end with a 4 link. Much easier than cutting up the 64 body and the donor car body, then trying to marry them up. The handling of the RS Chassis is awesome.
