FASTBACK340 Posted November 20, 2014 Posted November 20, 2014 OK, I come into work the other day and I find this parked in one of the bays. All I know is it was assembled by a shop in Indiana and they did a fantastic job. It's a 1969 Mustang on a 2008 Mustang chassis. This thing was gutted like a model car body and dropped onto a late model Mustang chassis. This car is not only fuel injected with a Tremec, but has ABS, air bags, and every creature comfort of a new car. The INTERIOR is all 2008! It's in for minor suspension issues and some partial paint touch-up. Check it out…...
1930fordpickup Posted November 20, 2014 Posted November 20, 2014 Very cool car. Careful John you may come over to the dark side with all these Mustangs in the shop.
MsDano85gt Posted November 20, 2014 Posted November 20, 2014 that actually meshed really well! the new interior looks at home in the older car! SWEET

JTalmage Posted November 20, 2014 Posted November 20, 2014 I wish I could see the pictures at work.... Will have to check this out later. I know a guy that has done 2 SN95 Chassis under 65-66 body swaps about an hour and a half from me. Right in his little 1 car garage and in the driveway. Freaking cool BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH. I remember one of them has a supercharged blow-thru Clevor motor, viper 6 spd, and a cobra IRS in the back.
Dominik Posted November 20, 2014 Posted November 20, 2014 Coooooool. Looks really aggressiv all in black
FASTBACK340 Posted November 21, 2014 Author Posted November 21, 2014 Yeah.... It IS beautiful! One of the nicer Hot Rods I've ever seen. Nothing looks questionable and the attention to detail is stunning. My Boss says it drives REAL nice!
bobthehobbyguy Posted November 21, 2014 Posted November 21, 2014 Nice car. Looks like it was a lot of work. I remember seeing the pictures of a 65? Mustang and there was quite a bit of fab work.
FASTBACK340 Posted November 21, 2014 Author Posted November 21, 2014 Very cool car. Careful John you may come over to the dark side with all these Mustangs in the shop. Funny, I just found out I start final-assembly on a '66 Mustang convertible in the morning. It's s weird one: MASSIVE sheet metal & floor pan panel replacement, Hot Rod black primer, 6 cylinder, drum brakes, TREMEC FIVE SPEED, stock wheels, hubcaps. BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH Mustangs are everywhere in my shop. I'm learning them!
o-man Posted November 24, 2014 Posted November 24, 2014 I think I need a towel and a moment. That thing is awesome!
Ace-Garageguy Posted November 25, 2014 Posted November 25, 2014 To swap a unibody shell on to another unibody chassis takes fabrication and engineering skills FAR beyond the abilities of most shops. I've seen a couple of attempts that were scary hack jobs under the shiny paint. Yours looks great though. Sure like to know the shop that did the job.
