65 Mustang 2+2 Fast back. 289 V8, cammed, shift kit, ladder bars, pullied etc. etc… only has around 30k on it. He finally pulled it out of the garage today and washed it so I snapped a few pics. He took it off the road a few weeks after I was born and havent drove it since. He put a new radiator and stuff in it a few years ago and threw in a battery and it started right up. ![http://i271.photobucket.com/albums/jj136/sxryder46/P1040421.jpg](http://i271.photobucket.com/albums/jj136/sxryder46/P1040421.jpg) ![http://i271.photobucket.com/albums/jj136/sxryder46/P1040420.jpg](http://i271.photobucket.com/albums/jj136/sxryder46/P1040420.jpg) ![http://i271.photobucket.com/albums/jj136/sxryder46/P1040419.jpg](http://i271.photobucket.com/albums/jj136/sxryder46/P1040419.jpg) ![http://i271.photobucket.com/albums/jj136/sxryder46/P1040418.jpg](http://i271.photobucket.com/albums/jj136/sxryder46/P1040418.jpg) ![http://i271.photobucket.com/albums/jj136/sxryder46/P1040417.jpg](http://i271.photobucket.com/albums/jj136/sxryder46/P1040417.jpg) ---

looks like it was built in the later 60’s and 70s and not touched since… pretty sweet though, is it original sheetmetal? ---
