    One of a kind 71 Mustang Convertible Restomod.

    Yeah, I've got a pretty serious potential buyer right now. I think it really is worth the price. Its just not necessarily the best time of year to be selling it.

    Heres my setup. I made the flat floor in two sections and the sides removable.

    One of a kind 71 Mustang Convertible Restomod.

    Ive decided to sell my beloved 1971 Mustang Convertible. This was a great car when I bought it almost 7 years ago and is a one of a kind show winner now. The car turns heads wherever I take it. It fires up faster and just as consistently as most new cars, and I wouldn't hesitate for a minute to...

    So I know its been a long time since Ive posted. Ive been off at college in McPherson Kansas for Auto Restoration. I bought a 1975 Toyota FJ40 that Ive been restoring to help pay for school. During the few weeks I was home I put a new stereo in the mustang from Classic Auto Sound and thoroughly...

    1971 1973 Billet Tail light Panel Dress Out

    If you order Eddie Motorsports stuff, just be ready for it not to fit. Several people (including me) have ordered the hinges and had to send them back because they were soo far off. The cowl covers work, and I have them on my car, but I would have done them differently. Lastly their customer...

    My wheels came in early!!! Woohoo! Huge shout out to Americas Tire, they have always been great to work with. The wheels and tires came in on Tuesday, and I mounted them up Wednesday morning. They looked awesome, except the front tires just looked a little too small in the wheel wells. I went...

    Well... bad news, I got a call from Americas Tire, and they said there is only one 17x7 MB old school in the world. They are producing more as we speak, but it will be June 9th before they can get them. However, since the car will be on jack stands for a month, I will tackle the job of...

    Thanks so much for the complements! I sold my old wheels yesterday, we had to try them on his mustang to make sure they fit. It was REALLY close in the back (we had to bend the tabs on the fender lip), but they ended up clearing and he loves them. Also got the wheels and tires ordered today...

    wheel ?

    I agree that the size of the wheel needs to match the style of the car. I'm going with a 17 x 7 with a 225 45 on the front and an 18 x 8 and 255 45 on the rear. This maintains roughly the same sidewall front to rear and the stagger I think will look really good. Mine is a restomod custom...
