New Project??

[96Z28SS]

The way I look at it is....it is nothing but a shell,anything you do with it now is an improvement. Cutting an original restored/unrestored complete car would be a travisty(sic?) but this is not any of that but for a Shelby VIN#................................Any pics of what your boss started with?????

I started working here after the work started on the car. Its an original Shelby GT500. he isn't a computer guy so the pics he has aren't available for me to download.
What I did see in the pics are:
Shaved doors handles, honda side mirrors, custom front valance with spoiler, shelby letters on the back and front have been recessed so there flush with the body. Rear tail lights have been reworked, Alot of other little things.

I told him to not tell anyone he owns the car if it makes it to SEMA cause there might be a few die hard shelby owners wanting to beat him up for doing that.

I believe that 1970CUDA has a 67 Mustang at DSE now getting connectors and mini-tub...and probably a coil-over conversion to work with the tub job.

Nice! The 69 Mach 1 is my second favorite Mustang body style.

SW,

Since you mentioned GTO,

Pontiac GTO for Pontiac T/A deal ?

I am actually a Ford guy too. I have a 68 Shelby convertible now, but agree I would not PT it too much.

IMHO a nasty 69 Mach or Boss 302 would be great, with shaker, 6 speed and FI. There was guy (Flores last name) in TX also I think that had a nasty 69 Boss 302 restomod. I think it was at SEMA a year or so ago and was in PHR if memory serves me correct. Unique (the Eleanor people) supposedly now makes a rear end for Mustangs and several companies have IRS conversion kits. If you want I can get you their names.

There is a 70 Boss 302 Pro-Tourer floating around-was on e-bay last August-Gulfstream Aqua color, lots of sick parts with some Stielow tuning. I went to NH to buy it with trailer, but changed my mind. If that ever particular car crosses your path let me know, I can give you first hand account.

Brad, I remember that car on E-bay, it looked slick. I really like the '69 Mustang(fastback) body style..

btw, your GTO is really cool..

<-- looking for a Mustang project car...

And I would cut up a Shelby in a heartbeat.. just to give the old times a heart attack.. think it would generate mail???

yeah some hate from mustang lovers

[shmoov69]

My gosh!!! Dragging up an old one eh?!??

[tazzz25906112]

SW you might want to consider the JME Enterprises subsection for Mustangs,,,,, it won some design awards over at SEMA a couple years back....
BTW a 69 fastback is an awesome looking car I agree....

[shmoov69]

He hadn't been on here in a couple years. I think he went racin with his Supra!
Anyone know what happened to him?

[elitecustombody]

somebody said Supra? lol, what's with bumping ancient SW's threads?

[madmax]

I say go for a Mustang.

Call me crazy, but I like the clean lines of a standard coupe. I used to really be into the '69 Mach 1s, but now they seem a little 'busy'.

A really clean coupe with modern parts, smoked glass, fat meats, etc, would be a lot meaner and understated at the same time, especially for a driver. IMO.

Oh wow, ancient thread.

Heh.

I still stand by my comment!!

Is this SW's car:

Looks like something that may find its way to his stables, no?

fixed, LOL

miss that guy

[69fbodyproject]

Ive got a half finsihed 1969 Cutlass S hard top in the garage if you wanted to build something different. Got just over 40k into it at this point. Looking for 17k, really only needs final body work, paint and assembly.

[shmoov69]

So where did SW go?

[srh3trinity]

He just posted on Lateral-g the other day that he was looking for an early 70's TA to make his own. I remember his red early 70's TA, one of the best looking second gens around.

[srh3trinity]

Here is the link: http://www.lateral-g.net/forums/showthread.php4?t=26489
Let's make sure he scores a nice TA, he has great taste and I love looking at his rides.

[shmoov69]

Cool, good to see he is still alive! Did someone piss him off here?
He does have some goooood taste! Lol
