Welding the Dash Board Into My 1965 Ford Mustang!

Well, I for one am grateful you have stuck with this project. I have learned a lot watching your trials by errors and am really looking forward to your successful completion. It's gonna be cool.

Looking good, keep going and get one task done at a time.. Remove engine and paint the engine bay, then brace up the shock towers and get the engine mounted

@Pumpkingilmour He won’t, can’t you see he absolutely hates working on this old junk. Could have done 3 modern cars in the same time. Even his 720s which was A LOT of work went smoother. Old cars are just not worth it unless its something extremely valuable or unique which then leads to a very high value when done. This thing will either crash or be scrapped because its a death trap.

[@david888a]

@@SAIFSWORLDFUN this long overdue build will be scrapped in the end like his old mustang builds, there is no time line for him to finish it where else B is for Build finished his a long while ago.

[@goldguy4675]

@@pieterverboven4853 Agreed. Plus he is way out of his league on this one. He isn't a mechanic.....he's a frame guy. He barely knows how engines or cooling systems....electrical etc even work. All these videos of him farting around are just him avoiding facing the real problem....that he can't figure out how to actually complete the car. Or even get it running for that matter. I hope when he finally scraps this one....or somehow pretends he's finished it by barely getting it running and painting it that he's learned something. Know what you know and know what you don't know.

[@rgreer3377]

I’d put a ford 9” for strength, since you will be adding twins in the future. Also don’t burn your self out, you are working on what is normally a Multiple year project. It takes time to fab and build, what you are trying to accomplish. Keep up the good work.

The 8.8 has the most aftermarket support and is one of if not the most widely used rear end ever. The 8.8 comes in so many different widths and the most important thing to check is if you have a true center diff or offset dif. You can triangulated four link coil over, four link coil over with watts link, or straight 4 link with leaf springs or panhard bar. I would go watts link 1st, second choice is triangulated 4 link and last would be leaf spring or panhard bar.

Ford Explorer differential should fit,and allot have Limited Slip which you want.The insulation is great.The dash work was 'spot on'.Strut brace after connecting the shock mounts to the bar will be perfect.You're doing great Ben!How about blue calipers with white letters to Pop behind the wheels?

Its coming along nice. Seems its about time you toss this one to the parking lot and start another mustang project. Although its great you made it this far without tossing it to the sidelines.

[@bnelson313braveheart]

It has always served me well in projects to write down all the steps/items required to complete the process. Once I do that I don’t have to think about it during the night. In fact I seldom ever looked at the list after that. I know it’s sounds weird but it work for me. Try it and see. Love you videos.

[@FransvandenBergeMuziekschuur]

Your glasses look really nice young man! I have seen you on other channels doing your work too. Don’t forget to mention those projects. We love to hear about those too.

Hey Ben, glad to see you're still going with this project dispite the challenges! Just think of the day you'll be cruising this down the road. Gunna be spectacular 🔥

[@fatt1729]

you got it keep on with the project it will come out really nice when its done. You got a really nice garage setup so that really helps.

[@larryheagren5171]

Use Moser street axles and a Ford 9 inch. Moser will make the axles to your length specifications. Pick your wheel and tire combo and offset do the math and cut and weld the housing to your specs and size the axles accordingly. I'm sure you could get a sponsor to provide you with the drop out 3rd member or find a good used one preferably a locker. Use a Ford aluminum driveshaft. The best ones are from old Police Interceptors (Crown Victoria's). I had this setup in my old Vega and it is bullet proof. I was running a 430 HP Chevy.

[@carrevive]

Epic work in so little time and this is all coming from one brain!! Great job dude that rust remover in the jug your using actually works great it just takes time I have the same product it just has to soak in the solution to help remove the caked on rust

[@racerx2084]

I think you’ll be really happy with a stock NA engine. 400hp is no joke in such a small car like that. I know the Holley tunes itself but find a good dyno tuner to tune and get the mist out of it. Everything is looking great. These types of builds don’t happen overnight. Plus going NA just think of the time and money you’ll save there. Personally I would stick a VMP charger or someone similar on it if I were to go non NA.

9in ford rear end for sure. Also as others have said get the headers mocked up before you pull the engine so you can do any fab work before you prime and paint and also get vintage air system and run the lines before you paint and button up too! Also harbor freight has fiberglass welding blankets will save you headaches like the sound deadening lol.

[@theanomalous1401]

You can see the finish line, dude. It's so close and when you're finished, you can let it rip or, the market for quality built resto mods are bringing top dollar. You win either way, because you're V~Tuned❗

[@goldguy4675]

LOL 'quality' built....

[@rockycassiano4756]

I got: 65 Mustang 2+2. It came with the HiPo 289 and a 2.90/1 rearend. I broke the rearend doing burnouts..... Motor was rebuilt to: 10:1 pistons, 0.30 over, 0.60 plained off the heads, stock valves, springs to 6000 rpm, Fordmotorsport cam.: 280/290 duration @ 0.50 lift. Rearend was replaced with: 3.40/1. Cam reached max HP at 5500 rpm with speed at about 130mph.... With 4.10/1 would go 110 mph at redline. Rearend: pick a ratio where freeway rpm is less than 2800 rpm. Unless this is a drag/town, non-freeway build..... M2cents.. : )

[@therattyrod3342]

The 9 " is a great diff, but you may need to use one with a speed sensor, which I'm not sure if they weremodern enough to have one. If not, the 8.8 is the way to go. Awesome build, and keep up the great work man.

We all are supporting you can't wait to see this Stang Finished after all this is your second one.

For something like this with the engine/trans combo, the Ford 9" is a good choice. IMHO. God bless and stay well.

[@eddieconquest6018]

you're probably going to have to relocate the master cylinder especially running a stick shift because the brake pedal will have to be in line with the master cylinder for the rod to work correctly just a suggestion

Welcome back vtune please don't give up you are doing a good job on yutube because you really help everyone's god bless you keep up the good work

[@prashamkarunanithi9064]

Great to hear that you're interior is coming together. Maybe for the gauge cluster you go fully digital with a push button ignition system which would look sick and modern. As for the rear suspension I think solid rear axle is the only option I don't think they make custom Independent Rear suspension for this mustang. But if they do its a intricate and tough one to do. In addition it does give good handling. The Ford 8.8 rear end is the main choice as for the differential gear maybe go 3.73 or higher maybe 4.10 gears. Depends, because one has good acceleration, fuel efficiency and the other ratio is vice versa.

[@michaelyackovich155]

[@jamesmckelvy5441]

If you plan on doing a lot of racing with it, go with the 9 inch. If you want a good street car and occasionally race it, an 8.8 will probably work fine. There’s plenty of videos on KZbin on how to convert a Ford Explorer 8.8. Find one with LSD and disc brakes, shorten the one side to center the pumpkin and you’ll have a nice set up for the street.
