1967 Mustang Coupe Restomod Project

[67Cruzer]

I'm flattered, but I'm sure there's more deserving people. Thanks for the nomination!

 

[marguerite66]

Your car is very deserving! You've done a lot of work in a short amount of time!

 

[67Cruzer]

Well, I wasn't alone in this build. As I stated, this couldn't have been even remotely possible without the work of "Mustang Tony", and "Jr." from North Jersey.

Thanks to any and all who've nominated my ride as MOTM! I'm sending all the props to those guys for all their hard work! And again, if you're looking for a turnkey car, or a project, classic Mustang (64-73), let me know and I'll help you find it with very quick results.

Thanks again, I'm blown away with all the encouragement this forum has given me!

Hope to see you folks cruis'n this summer!

Well, I'm STILL waiting on my carb, holding on to the hope of making it to the Fingerlakes Rally on August 3rd-5th!

I hate being held hostage by parts suppliers! FUG!!!!!

Looks like your moving along well,nice job

 

[67Cruzer]

As of today, still no presents delivered by UPS or FedEx. So, looks like its going to come down to the wire! IF I get the carb and alternator wiring harness tomorrow, I should be good for Friday and the Fingerlakes Mustang Rally. I'm certainly not going to hold my breath, just cross my fingers.

 

[marguerite66]

wow, really hope you get it!

 

[67Cruzer]

Nothing came from UPS or FedEx, so there's no hope for me to make it to ROTFL, which is kinda demoralizing to tell you the truth. I was working all spring and summer long to get it done, and just when I thought it was, I had the carb and alternator wiring harness issues. Damn, oh well, looks like next year!

You can always cruise up this way for the Adirondack Nationals in September. It's always a good time. Over 5,000 cars. 3,000+ fill the Fort William Henry alone then the streets are always lined up all the way.

I guess that's the new plan! Where can I find the details about that event? Is it something NYM sponsors too? And of course I'd have to find a place to stay, which I'm sure will be no small feat.

No they don't sponsor it here. It's sponsored by Albany rods & customs. It's muscle cars and old cars, not just mustangs. If you need info I can get it for you. And you can park your car at my place when your not cruising around. Adirondack Nationals - Registration that's the site. It's a lot of fun, hoping to have my notch ready.

Bummer..missed seeing you there! I'll be at the Watkins Glen Grand Prix in Sept! Mustang is the Marque this year!

 

[AdirondackFox08]

Sorry to hear about that. My dad seems to have a problem pop up with his every time he wants to drive it.

3000 cars is a bit of an exaggeration though inside the Fort, maybe a few hundred. It is a good show, but I think the best part of it all is their street cruise at night.

How many classics (64.5-73) were with you folks? All the cars I've seen in the pics are beauties! And the majority are pretty new (and I'd bet expensive) rides. Hats off to u guys for braving the brutal heat!

 

[marguerite66]

We had a few classics..just posted some pics in the Event pics section! And yes, I've never sweated that much in my life!!

No it's not. You ever read their invoice? My friend works there. And I've read the car count and registration. It's always around 3,000 or more.

Plus when I take a pic of each car that I like on the Fort grounds I usually have close to 1,000 photos taken each year. And that's mostly just Camaro's, Chevelles, mustangs, and Nova's.

Is the car show held at the Fort?! That's amazing! With that many cars, I'd imagine my little silver '67 would get lost in the mega-money restorations! Don't get me wrong, I've spent plenty on this car, but not nearly as much as some have, I'm sure!

And if ya got bored, you could ghost hunt, lmao!

On another note, I took care of the alternator wiring harness by replacing the alternator with a 130A single wire chrome alternator. Shit should charge well, lights should be plenty bright, AND now I have created yet another bottomless pit with the stereo possibilities, lol.

The next thing is taking care of that damn 750 cfm carb. I have a 600 cfm coming (should've been here last Thursday at the latest, but NO).

I think I have tickets for watkins glen as well for that weekend but if not me and my buddies will cruise up there with ya. Maybe by then I will of found some original steel wheels with hub caps and trim rings for the mach 1 haha. I had to pirate the wheels off my skylark so I could drive the thing around.

It's held there, but most don't go in because it cost like 12 bucks. But it's cool. I was shocked when my buddy showed me the amount of registrants accepted. I always would've thought just around 1,000, but the Fort grounds is huge, they park cars everywhere. Sweet, need stereo shit let me know lol.
