Patina'd Survivor 1967 Mustang Fastback

[70B5Cuda]

Growing up in the 1990's, I always wanted a 65-68 mustang fastback but the prices were either more then I could afford or they were ROUGH!! I've been looking hard for the last 2 years and just snagged a super solid 1967 Mustang Fastback from the San Antonio area. A buddy and I drove 1,311 miles in one day to pick it up and get home (at 5am) on Memorial Day. It needs cabin floor pans but the trunk floor, rockers, and frame rails don't need any work/repair. It's got it's original paint, so there are no surprises! It's got some patina on the hood and fenders, which will look really good once the rest of the paint is polished up. This will be a budget build...not paint/body work here. The plan is to save the existing original paint and upgrade the brakes/supension. I'm undecided on the drivetrain. I have a 50K mile 5.0/5 speed from a wrecked 1990 Mustang GT I parted out....If I use this, I would upgrade with camshaft and aluminum heads at minimum. I'm also contemplating a shock tower delete so I could go with a different drivetrain. Here's the starting point.
