See finished the mustang build in motion here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fqTXkpyFhdSFnKM Thanks for sharing "Hand Built Cars" we really enjoyed restoring this GT500 for our customer.

Hello. Great car. What is the undercoating on the bottom of the hood and deck lid?

[@angusmackay7281]

Congratulations on not ruining it. Perfect rebuild and colour

[@lumpjones6459]

THANKS for saving this great muscle car. Very very well done 👍👍👏👏👏👏

[@timhopper389]

I graduated from high school in 1967 and this was my dream car!! Of course my twin brother and I were driving a 55 Chevy and we were way behind the power curve but... we had wheels!! Thanks for taking the time and effort to document this great build. Im in awe of the skills that were shown to make this project a success!!!!

[@melvinsmiley5295]

I have always loved the 55/56 Chevy over the 57s that so many like. They just looked cleaner to me. A 56 Nomad would be sooo cool!

[@jonathanabrahams7878]

When I was 8 my Uncle had this Car, He was in a Bad motorcycle Accident and the Car Sat and Rusted away. I'll never forget the few memories I had in that Car with him and to this day I wonder what happened to the Mustang

[@steveafanador6441]

It's so much time and work to do a job like this. You guys rock 👍👍

[@67ST4NGSTER]

Very nice workmanship. I really appreciate someone showing all of the work necessary to make these fiberglass parts fit correctly.

Fantastic work people. It MUST be very rewarding to see this machine look so DARN good. I remember when this model first came to Australia, I was in High School and I loved them and Mustangs are STILL my fav :)

AWESOME BUILD!!! Your attention to detail is second to none. Outstanding craftmanship leads to incredible results. I always wanted to build a 68 Camaro resto mod but unfortunately never had the time.

[@Concreto1984]

Masterful craftsmanship and a beautiful car, especially in blue.

[@AVB2]

The photographer really knew what he was doing. Black sucks up light like you would not believe but I noticed that only a very few of the shots of black items on this build were underexposed. The body work was also outstanding as was the paint.

[@robertroccii7117]

Respect for this hard work you have done. The GT500 was a Rust Ruin. You made it amazing now.

[@stukaman1162]

This looks and feels like the work of a Foose! And I mean that in the highest complimentary way possible. Well done, dudes.

[@stanhutchins6592]

Absolutely awesome build, like to have heard her running

[@xMrChippyx]

You guys are lucky to find this car in this shape, especially 50 years after it was manufactured. I bought a 67 GTA back in 72 that was a complete rust bucket. Back then in my part of the world cars only lasted maybe 5yrs without rust coatings. I was 20yrs old when i bought the Mustang. I was plain stupid and didn' t listen to my Dad, He warned me not to buy it, so it lasted maybe 2yrs after a bunch of money and headaches, then I sold it just to get rid of it. I wish it looked like this car when I bought it then my Dad and I could have fixed it up. Ironically my Dad said years later we should have kept the car, this was after he said get rid of it.

[@boyarieffirmanto3304]

Agree, Love that Mustang!

[@blakerh]

[@glenwarren4351]

[@tonycarlsson6577]

Very beautiful built!👍😎

[@lukewalker1051]

Incredible job. What great talent you have. When I was in high school, a friend of mine with a rich dad had a '69 Green GT500. We took the 428 Cobra Jet smog motor out of the car and installed a professionally built 427 wedge with elephant Holley. Essentially a race engine with huge cam, solid lifters...could barely keep a starter in it, it had so much compression. I would easily smoke the tires in 2nd gear from a roll. He would let me drive because I had some ability with it. Almost all my friends went to engineering school and I went on to be an automotive engineer. Will never forget that car and no idea whatever happened to it.

Magnifique restauration de cette Ford mustang GT 500 cobra

[@xoox870]

Body work is amazing and i was like YES when i saw the rack & pinion, cause i knew at least they were on the right path to upgrade to newer tech. R&P and IRS are absolute must upgrades for these older cars. Hard to tell if there was oversized or stronger box rails, which is also a weakness of the older body types. Additional subframes and/or cross-rails for big blocks are also an upgrade to prevent body flex. An A-arm from the transmission to the axle (like on the Camaros) would also help to stop axle twist torquing (were staggered shocks an option in 1967 ??).

[@goutamdas9066]

[@chrisfisher1100]

YES SIR THAT WAS A FUN WATCH.... GOOD JOB

[@bhaimohamed5249]

This gentleman is such an perfessionist and the details of the build absolutely astonishing bravo theres some different details I would prefer in the inside including a bonnet or hood that slams shut instead of the wire alternative but absolutely beautiful the boot trunk inside I would put a rubber to prevent it from the elements beautiful sound systems 2x15 subwoofers and a thumping amplifier to add to the already beautiful centerpiece

[@robj2704]

I remember my friend ordering a new 67 GT500 towards the end of the model year. He traded in his 65 Mustang 289 hardtop. He wanted to get the new one "loaded" but there were a number of accessories that he was not able to get because the factory had stopped making those, gearing up for the 68 model year. Didn't realize there were that many changes between those two model years. One thing I remember him saying he wanted but couldn't get was an overhead console. Hoping I'm remembering correctly; that was a long time ago.

[@waxybigdingle]

Rusty? That Mustang is DEFINITELY NOT from the Midwest. Working on one like this but not to that level. I can appreciate the time it takes to straighten that aftermarket fiberglass...It takes a lot of work to get that crap straight! Nice work guys.

[@fordguy3032]

Beautiful craftsmanship! You guys are true pros. What color blue did you use? I have a 21 Velocity Blue GT/CS and it looks like a similar shade of blue. We're going through a similar restoration on a 68 fastback. Car was purchased used by my best friend in 1977. He and his dad restored it back then and it was on the road until mid 90s. Unfortunately it sat for several years outside and rust got the better of it. He gave it to my son 3 years ago. We stripped it down to sub frame and doing ground up restoration. It's getting new full rear quarters, front fender supports, inner/outer cowl, new door skins, floor, front and rear sub frames...…etc. We're still another year off before paint. One day at a time :)

[@MrRight-fj4yi]

[@SHADOWBLACKs650]

💯👉 wow, I just don't see how it could be done any better than this.

[@jamesmclynn1236]

Built one very much like it 15 years ago. Mine was 100% as the original with the exception of a date coded 1967 427 Sideoiler and factory Ford 2x4 set up and a Rug-S toploader from a 68 Shelby. A ton of work for sure. Watching your build was a nice walk down memory lane. I even made my own leaf spring snubbers most people don't even know are there. I also widened my side scoops to fill the entire concave side and made the brake ducts functional and built my own frame ties that did not need to go through the floor. Looks like you used a Branda "red" hood. The one I bought from them did not need to be widened and fit very sell along the sides. So curious why the widening was required.
