Huge Changes! Coupe to Fastback Conversion 1967-68 Mustang

In this video we set out to convert a 68 Mustang coupe to Fastback. Converting to a fastback is not as hard as you think. We removed old and fit new metal in a day. Tons of fun.

Great conversions! Taking zero and making a hero!

[@teeandrea7580]

Glad i turned in. I didnt know that kit was available. Ill be watching

[@humblethinker8493]

Wow! You and Trey did a great job!

[@FollowTheBuilds]

Thank you. It was a lot of fun tearing up…now comes the fit and finish. It’s going to be sweet!

[@selfdefenseandmenta7783]

Nice work!

[@ricknightingale6446]

Looks like an awesome project. Cleco pins work great for clamping all of the panels together to get the fit right before welding them up. Check them out if you have never used them.

[@FollowTheBuilds]

Thank you Rick! Ah thank you for the suggestion of Cleco pins! 🧷 Definitely need to put some of those to work on the next!

[@kmoss9521]

Wow, I’m upset how good it looks. *I will not chop up my coupe, I will not chop up my coupe* Yep it’s sure is awful! Awful good looking!

[@FollowTheBuilds]

I hear you! I love coupes! But this was a great candidate for the conversion. Thanks so much!

[@strtcar]

Nice job

[@FollowTheBuilds]

Thanks so much!

Nice Video The time lapsed teardown was well done for explanation and demonstration without hours of noisy grinding and sawing Well Done Thanks Ken in Florida

[@FollowTheBuilds]

Many thanks Ken! Really appreciate you taking the time to comment.

[@AFMarksman]

One of your best videos!

[@FollowTheBuilds]

Thanks so much for that!

I did a 69-70 fastback and those years look harder because the door glass, rear glass, and windshield are all different from the coupe and fastback. Once your mustang goes into one color you’ll never know you frankenstanged the car, good job.

[@FollowTheBuilds]

Love it! Thanks so much for that. I can imagine the variations from coupe/fastback on a 69/70 are much different. Would love to see more of what you did on that.

[@user-er6wb9rf8u]

Never understood the fascination with fastbacks. Only a midget or kid can sit in the back seat, and only a short driver can fit in the front.

[@pedroguerrero4898]

good greetings from Colombia...a question where to buy the Eleonora GT 500 body kit but in metal because I looked online and they only sell fiber

[@user-wr6er2ww1d]

how legal is it? when you change from hardtop to fastback ?

[@kartaku132]

Wish I had the skills to do this cause the only 60s mustang I have a chance at affording is a coupe

[@alphaproductions7472]

Do you have a link to the kit

[@tommygun1701]

How much wus all the new sheet metal to do that I would like to do that

[@joshuapatio2802]

Where di you buy that panels ?

[@TheGeonam]

If you use a plasma cuter you can burn a hole through the spot welds followed by a chisel

[@FollowTheBuilds]

Ah this that is great. Must try this now! Thanks for this!!

[@humblethinker8493]

You’re selling this conversion as a shell?! Great opportunity for someone there!

[@FollowTheBuilds]

It really is. If you can find a Fastback for decent price out there it will need sheet metal due to rust. This insures rust is treat and that someone has a good platform to build their dream car.

[@mattlites2900]

How much for the shell??

[@daviddeyoung4943]

when is the next video of this conversion?

[@ScottHarness1]

I made a video on how I converted a 1968 Mustang coup to a fastback for $6k. It’s possible! kzbin.info/www/bejne/gnmkdneKgLSmnas

[@ScottHarness1]

I have published for download an illustrated parts guide for the Coupe to Fastback conversion complete with illustrations, pro tips, measurements and parts numbers. You can get it here: coupetofastback.gumroad.com/l/fjoxw

[@daviddavis9411]

Money wise counting the cost and real time is it worth doing this and can you double your investment plus make some labor cast hey I sold my cows don't need no bull

[@alexsalazar5161]

whats the benefit of a fastback besides cosmetics?

[@FollowTheBuilds]

Hi there no cosmetics only here.

[@davidkuhn3970]
