Chi-town 65 Fastback

[riles]

I guess it's time to post about my car that's in the early stages of it's build, don't know why it took so long. It's a 65 FB Mustang that I'm hoping to have some fun in. I bought the car with a drive train that eventually was not going to work to my liking (351 cleveland, 4 spd top loader, 9" small bearing rear, all out of a 69 Mach). After purchasing items I never used and trying to build a better handling car on a budget, I came to realize it was not exactly what I wanted in the car, so I sold the drive train. I wanted a car that would handle on the corners and go fast on the straight, which is how I ended up here.



Here's what I'm going with:
- Ford 331 stroker
- D&D Performance T-56
- Strange Ford 9" rear
- Wilwood Big Brakes
- Custom built front suspension (Assisted by Dave from Gen II)
- Street or Track 3 link rear w/ Watts
- DSE wheel tubs
- Custom built SF connectors
- Custom roll bar (8pt)
- ET LT-III Wheels

Have not decided on the paint color/scheme yet, though my paint guy suggested something that represents the 60's. As you can see it's black now, which I may stay with.

Well, here's my build:
