My first Mustang 73.

[MAD IRISHMAN]

I got this 73 Grande about 10 days ago. The last time it was on the road was in 2022. The engine is a 351 Cleveland. The floorpans are rotten and I am going to replace them.

This first year will be about structure and safety. No real hot rod stuff at first.

I have been a BMW guy most of my life, bit this thing really caught my eye.

I live outside Dallas TX.

Hope Yall are having fun.

Everything in the 1970s had to have wood paneling.. I grew up in a house that had it.. plus my Dad had a "Country Squire" pinto... so it's the wood that makes it good..

Oh, I also made all of the "patches" for the rear floor
