SERIOUSLY THINKING OF BUYING A 68 COUPE TO PLAY WITH FOR A WINTER (OR 2) PROJECT. BODYWORK IS PRETY DARN GOOD BUT WITH THE USUAL PROBLEM AREAS. MOTOR & TRANS HAS BEEN REMOVED AND REBUILT. THE PRESENT OWNER SAYS HE JUST CANT FIND THE TIME TO FINISH THE CAR,,,IM JUST WONDERING DO I.

IT SUCKS CHRIS WHEN I WORK ALL DAY EVERY DAY ON CARS. TAKES THE FUN OUT OF IT. IM PRETTY TIRED AFTER A FULL DAY UP AND DOWN ON A FRAME BENCH. IM NOT RULING IT THOUGH. ITS SOMETHING IVE WANTED TO DO FOR A LONG TIME NOW BUT THE OLDER I GET THE HARDER IT GETS TO MOTIVATE MYSELF TO DO THIS. I SEE RICH BANYAI STARTED A PROJECT SOME TIME BACK AND NOW HE WANTS TO SELL IT MID STREAM. THIS IS WHAT IM AFRAID OF WILL BE THE SAME OUTCOME FOR ME. WE SHALL SEE.

Never ever underestimate the level of restore on an old mustang. My 69 mach1 has been sitting in the garage for the last 2 years and it hasn't made much progress. Same happened with a 68 coupe I had. These things...

YEAH,,,,YOU ARE RIGHT TIM. MAYBE I DONT WANT TO DO THIS AS MUCH AS I THOUGHT I DID. THE SAME REASONS STILL APPLY AS I OUTLINED IN MY ORGINAL POST. ITS SO FRIGGIN HARD TO MOTIVATE MYSELF HAVING TO WORK ALL DAY ON CARS AND THEN COME HOME AND DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN.
