Hey everyone,
I have been on the forums for a while but after reading a friend's build page I thought I would write my own since I have been lurking.
I have an 80 series and a 100 series (well my wife has that one) and before any of that I had May the Mustang.
I had may since I have been 17. My dad first got me a '68 Mustang and he wrecked her (thanks Dad) we took the insurance money and bought this '66. I daily'ed it for about 10 years until, brakes went out. At the time I didn't have the money to throw parts at it, so I moth balled it for 10 years. I spent all last year getting it road worthy again and I drove it for the first time three weeks ago!
in the last year I replaced:
installed the CSRP front disk brakes
Replaced the oil pan
rebuilt the power steering piston
replaced all the wear parts on the steering
removed all the interior
replaced the fuel sended
added a coolant overflow
replaced the upper ball joint, lower ball joint
I serviced the hood supports and welded up a hole in my inner fender
got new tires and I'm sure other things
replaced the brake light switch and added a third brake light
What I need to finish:
weld up some minor rust in the passenger floor board (I never fixed the leaking condensation tube from AC, never in my wildest dreams would I think that would lead to the rusty mess I made
fix the rear passenger tail light. I bought the LED insert from Scott drake and I burned out some LED's that I'll solder in.
Reinstall the new carpet and sound deadening
fix the wiggling shifter
fix the leaking AC
That's about it.

you can see the dead row of LED's and my 80 series in the back!
