In 1967 I bought a new mustang. I paid 1600.dollar .Wish I still had it today .Know I'm 73 if I had the money I would find other one .I let my twin brother use it and he traded my car on a new truck .Still never forgot what he done . Keep.up the good work
that pad WAS welded to the frame ... by 60 years of Sunlight! "rome wasn't built in a day though ... right?" looking good though ... really enjoying your videos
I have 0 idea about cars and here i am watching the third video of the series. Im loving it. I've always liked old mustangs. Thank you for recording your progress. I was wondering how long it took you to complete the restoration. And how much did it cost in total.
Thanks for the support! Well I haven't finished restoring it yet. It's still a work in progress. I'm trying to keep the total spent under $5K, not including what I paid for the car.
I saw 👀 your first video… I thought you made guitars. I didn’t know you built motorcycles as well. You still have a killer amount of skills which explains how you can blow through these refreshers that you do! You’re making great progress and I wish you the best!!!
Not ordering from Distinctive Industries then, i need that exact part as well. Thanks for the heads up :D I have a Caspian blue 64.5 with a white vinyl hard top, looks like you're going in the same direction.... really nice combos!
Distinctive Industries suck! My 67 door panels was in that same condition plus half of the holes for the clips were not punched thru. Great videos ur making.
Hey there brother, that interior color combo should look great 👍... That's a beautiful 🤩 finish you got in the floor, almost a shame to cover it up, with the new dark 💙 blue carpet ! That DI real deck panel was bogus, I'd send them you video post, I'd be a disgrace they didn't respond to you on crappy product experience.... We know you could of easily pulled off fabricating one on yer own, but you were "treating" yerself, like you said, to spend that creative energy somewhere else on the build.. Keep em coming 😁!!!!!
I really enjoyed watching your video. You did an awesome job. The painting you did was great. Are you sure you're not a Mexican? Spray can painting was awesome 😃
These videos are awsome and always insipre me to work on my own mustang. btw, did you sand the inside of the roof in any way before spraying on the rustoleum? if not, any visuals on how it's holding up? thanks in advance!! keep up the great work!
Thanks! Yes, I sanded down the whole inside of the roof in order to get a good scuff so the paint would better adhere. I used fiber and nylon wheels from harbor freight, just used them in a power drill. I also focused more heavily on the rusted areas. The rustoleum is holding up really well. The rust reformer is really good stuff after it's had time to properly cure!
ill never understand why people try and fix a manufacturers bad product. as soon as I saw how bad the glue and staple job was that package tray cover would have been back in the box and on its way back for a refund.
Hey how did the door panels come out? I was curious to know if you were able to preserve the texture on the door? Great stuff thanks for making these videos!
Yeah, they came out great! I'll add in a close up of them in my next video when I put on the door panel inserts. The trick to removing the paint and keeping the grain is to use the nylon 80 grit wheel that I used. It removes the paint while preserving the integrity of the metal. Thanks for the support!
@@VanHoutenBuilds thanks for the tip! I need to clean up my door panels so I appreciate the advise. The steering wheel restoration also was a help. Thanks again.
I've had good and not so good luck with parts from CJ. It's coming along nicely though. I just found your channel and haven't read any comments, but I'm guessing the hole in your trans tunnel was a drain for a dealer installed or aftermarket under dash mounted AC unit.
@@VanHoutenBuilds I’m local here in SoCal. Not many cars are guardsman. My mustang is. I’m in the Southbay. I can cruise by check out your operation and show you my color. I used DuPonts colors came out nice. I just started following you. Really cool what you have done so far🔥. Guido 👍🏼
@@luckyluciano4968 Yes, that would be amazing!! Feel free to give me an email and we can schedule a time for you to swing by. I'd love to see your mustang! Thanks for the follow! huntervanh@gmail.com
