That's an awful lot of work, far more than one may initially expect! That car must mean something to you if you're prepared to invest such a lot of work into it. Good Luck...

@felixcat9318 The whole process took a huge amount of effort. To be honest not really worth it in the end. At the end of the day it's only a 2000 v6 mustang, so no matter how much work gets put into it, it'll never be worth it from a monetary perspective. On the other hand this was my first car. That has lasted a good 6 years since I purchased it. In those 6 years it's never let me down or stranded me, so I feel very sentimental/ indebted to it. This was also a great learning experience for me personally. This was the first project I tackled on my own with minimal help, and I wanted to see how I could test my fabrication skills. Looking back there are things I would do differently but overall, after a year of daily driving I haven't had any issues regarding the rebuild. Thanks for the nice comment!

@Scruffy72 Whilst it took time, your learned skills and experience and your sense of pride at what you achieved are truly priceless! To have given new life back into the car you knew and trusted is a satisfaction all of its own. My father used to say that experience was the best schoolmaster, and what you've learned from this will last your lifetime. Very Well Done for completing a daunting task that some professionals may have not wanted to take on.
