Aside from the 65 fastback, and the new retro looking one, that is my favorite bodystyle. I can't really explain why, just something about the body really grabs me.

Looks really good the outside is looks smooth as silk. Do the insides look as good??

My buddy had that body style back in probably 95 or 96 and when we took it out ridin around I was on top of the world!! That 5.0 is a hammer of a motor too.

the inside needs some work, it needs door panels and seats. carpet dash and console are all ok and really i could live with the door panels but if im gonna do the seats may as well do them too.

Yeah the drop tops are heavy, but it's still a good lookin car

And if the door panels need redone, not that bad of a thing as it gives you a reason to throw a lil custom look that way.

Well the outside warrants a nice interior too. I mean that thing is very nice looking. So you wont feel guilty about sprucing up the interior.

Unlike that Cutlass posted, why bother? lol

This, please bother. Looks nice Terry, good pull. Hopefully you can find the needed parts rasonable. or just glass over it all :)

I don't think he will have a problem getting reasonable parts, They market is flooded with mustang parts, everybody and their grandma makes nowadays.

Check out a Jegs book,

eh, jegs is only good for cams and stuff. i found door panels at a local yard for 15 each. vert seats are harder to come by though, id like to find another set of power leather seats for it to keep it original.
