I am 17 years old and I have been restoring a 72' Gold Glow coupe for three years now. Started my freshman year of high school taking on the project. Hope to finish it my senior year. It was completely original. Could have nearly saved the paint if I wanted to, but I was looking for a rotisserie...

I haven't posted in forever, but me and my dad have really gotten down to business. If anyone doesn't know the story, check my older threads. Completely original coupe I found with all of the paper work and I have several, original 1972 magazine advertisements picturing these mustangs that I...

I completely understand you. I didn't mean to come off as rude if I did so. Thank you sir!

There is no head gasket in this picture. What gives you the indication that it is on backwards? Thank you

Thanks to everyone for the tips and tricks. My area has recieved quite a bit of snow in the past few days and we have been in the garage for quite awhile. Here are some pictures if they will finally upload. Also, here is the new 2015 mustang that I am very excited about. I will be driving it to...

Thanks everyone. Sorry for the lack of photos.. I am having trouble uploading them from my iPad. Just came home today... My dad called Ford Friday and car is not ready to be picked up so we will not be heading to Detroit this weekend. Yesterday me and my dad got the motor all the way down to the...

First post of the new year... I'm so sorry I have been super busy with school and such. To start things off... On Christmas day I recieved a full set of 15x8 magnum 500 rims... They are now in their boxes tucked away for later. I am super excited. A few days ago I just turned 16 and I got my...

Hey guys, my dad got to talk to his friend that owns the body shop who is painting our car. He has all of the body panels as I mentioned, and he would like to have the actual car over at his shop over the holidays. Right now I'm talking to my dad about wheels and whether or not we should get a...

Thank you sir. Car is going off to the body shop now... All body panels except for the nasa hood are at the shop. We will load it onto a trailer and send it soon... That will make room for the other mustang in the garage and a place to take the engine apart.

I had the original thread for me and my fathers build going but I realized I had it posted in the introductions and not under the individual project builds. To summarize it, I will just tell you about the car and options here. 302 2v Power disc brakes Power steering FMX automatic...

Me and my dad finally found the time to hook up the engine harness and pull the engine. With the help of a neighbor, it took us about 1 hour considering the past few weeks we have been disconnecting hoses, motor mounts and etc that must be done to pull the engine. It's just a little 302 2v that...

Thank you! It does very much! And yes that picture with the cragars I found on the Internet and actually talked to the owner a bit. I should tell him about this website. I really like your setup concerning the wheels. That looks really nice I might have to look into that. Original color code is...

I have not updated this thread since what feels like mid Summer. Me and my dad have been very busy as he is a plant manager at a Ford plant today. Since my last post on this thread, all of the doors and other body panels have been sent to the body shop. I have completely gutted the interior - it...

If you have been looking at my other posts, you will know that me and my dad are restoring a 1972 Ford Mustang coupe that is in amazing condition. We bought it and drove it home November 27th and I have all the original ephemera with the car and this car looks excellent for its age. It had a...

In many other posts, I have explained that me and my dad are restoring a completely original 1972 mustang coupe. It is gold glow (6F) with a white vinyl top and ginger interior. 302 2v car with power disc brakes and power steering. There is no AC. This car was ziebart coated in 1972 and shows...

Welcome from kentucky! Have a coupe a lot like this one. Ginger interior but gold glow and we removed the original white vinyl top.

Sounds good! How's the mach 1 today? Looks like it was in the middle of restoration. I'm really looking into something like cherrybomb glass packs. My dad said as soon as you step on it they blow your ear drums. To me personally I love a loud rumble or a fast idle and I love the sound of a...

I have seen that ad. It's really cool but I wonder if it was the same for 1972. I don't know but to me I love the sight of a car restoration that builds a car to how it originally was and not so many modifications. I just want to make sure all of the details I put into this car were all factory...

You should post a video of your exhaust so I can get a good idea of what I would like! The car is completely disassembled besides removing the rear window and the engine to paint the engine compartment. Need some motivation right now. The car restoration process is making me impatient. Haha...
