Howdy, I'm Jason and new to this forum!



I have this 73 Mustang Standard Coupe and just started the build up process. My goal is to make a really nice driver out of this thing and I'm going to document it on my you tube channel and here...if anyone is interested.



Here are some links to a few you tube videos I've done so far on the project:

Thanks in advance for the help I'm sure I'll need at some point and have already learned from a couple of the threads here already!

Welcome Jason.

Looking forward to you seeing this one through. No need for a Viper V-10.
Thanks and I agree about the engine for this thing...my goal is to find a creative way to make 500 horsepower...hoped for a new Boss 363 but it's pretty expensive...so we'll see.

 
Welcome from West Texas!

"Large Marge" - When I saw this, for some reason I was thinking it would be yellow with blue stripes (ala, Marge from The Simpsons) LOL

Nice lookin' car - I love the Cragars! ::thumb::

 
Hey Jason,

Check out Chuck's (C9ZX) Mach 1 build and especially his 408 - 529 horsepower / 496 torque build.

Chuck is a great guy and would be willing to share his knowledge on a potent and reliable 408 build.
Thanks for the tip...I clicked the link and was denied access...maybe because I'm new? I'm sure I'll check it out at some point and appreciate the help!

 
why stop at 500 when you can have more... much more... cheaper.
