Wow, you guys were serious about doing a burnout 😂 Was the rear brake locking up? Initially I thought this video length was too short for what you aimed to cover but with some precise editing it was just the perfect amount of detail 👏
My old 66 had been sitting in a garage since the mid 90's and the original owners had got it running somewhat but but didnt drive it, my dad and I purchased it and topped up the tires and fluids and drove it 2 hrs home!
Damn, you guys are built. I'm trying to figure out before I buy my grandpa's 1965 mustang for under $2,000, how I would be able to shoehorn myself in at 5'10 and 230 lbs. I have thought about a smaller steering wheel, and having my family mechanic teach me how to weld before I swap the seatpans. Its going to be my secondary project car, because my grandpa doesn't think my current car will run, so it's good to have a backup plan. I'm a General Motors guy, but I do love some classic Fords.
If the transmission is a true 1965 C-4, it is a "green-dot" transmission. This means that the normal D position after N is actually 2. The D position is the second notch after N. I found this out by reading CarTech's "How to Rebuild & Modify Ford C4 & C6 Automatic Transmissions". I could not do a burnout in my 65, and upon reading this book, dropped it to the second notch after N, and viola!!!! Burnouts for days!!!!
my stock 289 66 cant turn the tires over either. I have a rebuilt transmission with an upgraded shift kit and a strong motor but no burn outs for me. Not sure why the era of mustang just cant spin them.
