My 66 Project
My 66 Project
hello guys, just "googled" you guys and have been lurking around reading on all the informative posts and decided to finally put some pictures and let yall see the 66 that i just purchased.
I bought the truck last Friday (10-8-10) after i decided that i was going to put the drive-train out of my 2001 Bullitt that i totaled on 9-25-2010.
but here she is no rust in places these trucks would have, bed is in tact only damage it has would be the front bumper is bent.
and the Bullitt before i totaled it and after...

Yea im hoping i can somehow use the mustang suspension. Its a lot of custom work but i think i can handle it..... i hope..foodstick wrote:Wow, looks like you are all set to go..with plenty of parts to work with...
back when I was in high school ...my best friend had a 67 fastback painted black..when they started the custom plates we went straight down and got the BULLIT tag for it...
i noticed you made your long bed into a short bed, i might need some pointers on that. where are you located?

to the show! Nice to have you on board! That Slick looks to be in great shape. Here's a place that you can get that front bumper back into good shape and re-chromed - Best Bumper Supply Inc., 415 North I-45 in Hutchins, just south of Dallas http://www.bestbumper.com/

Shame about the Stang,
making it continue on through the Slick is cool though.
So you going to try to stub the Slick frame or build one for the Pony suspension?

Got some time to work on stripping the mustang down this weekend....here are some pics.

Cut it right down the middle...
took the rear end off and off to the junkyard it goes..
and now to start on the 66....

And I will definitely keep the pictures coming...
thanks once again.
well got some work done to the slick.....
started taking the bed off...
bed is off...now to start measuring so i can cut it into a short bed.
took the front clip off so i can start taking the engine out.
engine
but the bed and front clip on the ground with a wheel underneath it for motivation
and finally took the cab off
this what im aiming for, bought a whole airbag set up off of craigslist for about $400.
