Going Full Time on Youtube Mustang Restorations!

[@genemounce8302]

DUDE... your panel gap game is SERIOUSLY on point ! ole Henry wouldn't believe its one of his cars.

[@ProfessorMAG]

You just about lost me when, after all the work done, you announced the Boss Mustang was up for sale. This has been a serious and interesting build that deserves completion. Sure, sell it after you are finished but please finish it! Your projects are always informative and entertaining and we appreciate showing us the ins and outs of the process. Thank you and best wishes for the full time KZbin commitment.

[@petersonrestorations]

Yep it will be finished on the channel

[@cesarmagdaleno6009]

Good luck in your KZbin plans. Can’t wait to see you post more videos. It never gets old watching you changing panels on 67’ 68’’ fastbacks. Always something different every time you work on a rusted pile of pieces of cars.

[@dh2360]

Keep up the great work, I am a classic Mopar fan but I truly appreciate your craftsmanship so I'll be watching your videos.

[@billreid11]

Super stoked to see you back Ben. Always love the sheet metal work. The resto-mod stuff you've done I think has a lot of content traction too.

[@Biglug8888]

I really enjoy watching you doing the impossible to resurrect Mustangs.

[@ricoludovici2825]

If something is "just beyond fixable" in your opinion, it is GONE. Seriously. I love watching you work. My daughter and I rebuilt all the mechanicals on a 1966. Not a restoration. I hit the wall at the sheet metal. So I love seeing what it could have been. She later went into the Navy and they offered her an engineering scholarship, so the work was not wasted.

[@JayJay-de8vq]

I just want to say to all the viewers you will never meet a more honest hard working genuine person! I recall his first body type of repair some years ago was fixing a fiberglass hood. It needed major reconstruction and he jumped rite in and took his time with every layer of matting and resin and shaping and made it look like new again! From day one he was dedicated to learning and doing every aspect of the metal work and body work him self. I'm sure he figured out who I am by now if he reads this lol.

[@petersonrestorations]

Thanks jay, hope all is well. Haven't seen you in a while!

[@JayJay-de8vq]

@@petersonrestorations Yea it has been awhile and things are going well! Ill have to come see you one of these days and check out the latest projects. You are doing great with KZbin you are good at it and the channel will keep growing! Very nice work on all the cars!!

[@woodwelder]

Ben … you are alive !!! I was going into mustang withdrawal !! No rebuild fix !! 🤗 Keep im coming , I - we all like your blow by blow instructions 👌

Old mustangs is my favorite glad your back can't wait to see the videos

[@wogs64]

Love all that you do! I want to see it all. Very interesting to what it takes to bring a Mustang back from the grave.👍

[@jeffgray6693]

I have always loved old Mustangs. Glad to see you back. I am so happy to see someone bringing these old ponies back to life. I like the idea of the restoration cost video.

[@v1-vr-rotatev2-vy_vx31]

Yes back in the day when they bondoed , that notchback's roof, the roof panels were not available,but they are now, thank God all these new parts available for these cars we can save . Did exactly what Peterson's doing here in the late seventies did quite a few mustangs till I went into collision repair 40 years at dealerships. Should have stayed working for myself. Much bigger demand for these cars these days.

[@penguinsfan251]

Like the others who have posted here, I enjoy your videos and I admire and respect the work that you do. Replacing rusted out sheet metal is not a skill learned in a week or a month. It appears to be the hardest task in restoring these Mustangs. It is fortunate that replacement sheet metal is available. The 1967 through 1970 Mustangs are my personal favorite. I want to get one when I retire in, well, a few more than a few years and tour the USA in it. Best of luck in the future.

[@gregsly1247]

So happy to see a new video pop up.

[@ronwatson4902]

Yessir. I'd love to watch anything that you want to share with us Mustang guys. Thanks!

[@fmbbeachbum8163]

Glad you're back. Bought a 70 coupe because of your videos. Been buying parts to get ready for a full restoration. I want a fastback but you can't touch a rust bucket for less than 10k now.

[@mwhitelaw8569]

Dang! Jumpin in with both feet!! Heck yeah buddy!!! Bummer nobody snagged the Boss I'll bet when it's done folks will regret not buying it when it was cheap. Give er hell man!! And for that coyote motor MMR has some cool stuff for those

[@davebrittain9216]

Ben I think many of us would agree that any video that you post of you working on the cars will be interesting to see. Looking forward to seeing your work. Thanks

[@donprice9050]

I stick around because I'm impressed with what you're able to accomplish. Looking forward to more

[@AndrewSandilands-tk6st]

In answer to what I personally would like to see, just more of what you do. So many others do car reviews, nobody else that I’ve seen do what you do.

[@v1-vr-rotatev2-vy_vx31]

The unibody structure of the Ford manufacturing on these cars is excellent they were good on the racetrack they were so strong. Preferred working on these cars over any GMs.

I should bring you my 68' coupe. I've been kickin the idea around of making it a fastback. Its just a little rougher than the pink coupe that your working on. My car would need front rails and floor supports. So yes I love the vids and look forward to the pink coupe coming back to life!!

Hey thanks for coming back how about the window felt and adjusting the windows to go up and down correctly without hitting when you open and close the doors

[@mickeyparson9778]

Excited to watch you do the 65/66 coupe since that is my next project and most cars I find for a decent price are in that kind of condition.

[@TheAzmotorhead]

If I may make a suggestion, while just talking to the camera use a fixed camera and use a camera with stabilization when you’re moving around. Otherwise glad to see you back . Looking forward to seeing more. Is the Boss 302 the same car you picked up and replaced all the metal on?

Not to nit-pick, but on the 64 1/2, I seem to recall that the early 260 V8 'Stangs had gold paint on the valve covers and air cleaner.

I would like to hear what you have planned for the 70 Fairlane. I really dig 70-71 Ranchero, Fairlane and Torino

Looking forward to it. You give straight forward, no nonsense, information. Just curious if you have done many 71-73 Mustangs. I'm debating doing a full pan replacement on a M code 71 Mach1.

[@ddelano7408]

Nice to see you back Ben. I would like to see a video on what to look out for when buying a Mustang. I'm looking for a 67-68 coupe and would like to know how to spot poor workmanship on repairs that have been done such as floors, quarter panels, fender aprons, etc. I looked at one that someone had cut out most of the floor and laid the replacement floor on top of what was left. I don't know what they used to cut the old floor but it had all jagged edges. Keep up the great videos!

[@petersonrestorations]

Great idea, I think I'll definitely do a video on what to look for in buying a shell. Thanks!!

[@cndream1]

Make the videos "simple". You dont need to over whelm us or yourself with lots of setups, every angle, etc shots. Just a simple basic over the shoulder view and highlight the most technical or difficult situations. I think most of us just like to watch you work. I would rather see simple videos more often than complex or technical ones sporadically. You have an inviting workshop, the flow of work is relaxed, and since you are very accomplished you make it look easy.
