[Shotimes] Anyone interested in a '65 Mustang Convertible

[George Fourchy]

Now that I have your attention....

That's what it is, but it is VERY rusty and VERY apart.  Those of you who have
visited me have most likely seen it....it was to be a 5.0/T-5 conversion, but got
sidelined by not being painted after being sandblasted 10 years ago.  It is
finishable, but I don't have (and probably will never have) the time.  There is
surface rust on the rear half, where most of the bare metal is.  The rest of the
exterior has good filler work, and is not rusty.  The floor and interior parts that
rust on these cars is, as far as I can tell, sound, and not rusty.

The new engine is in it....a '90 5.0 with about 80K miles.  It last ran for me 10
years ago  (in its donor chassis), and was fine.   It still turns over fine, by
hand, but is not electrically connected.  It is most likely still good, but would
need EFI servicing.  It has chrome shorty headers to fit the old chassis.  There is
no transmission.  There is no front end (fenders, grille, headlights, etc.) other
than the chassis, but there is the hood (no hinges).  There are no doors (they're
somewhere, but they might have been tossed), but the seats and rest of the interior
is there.  The top (hydraulic) is there.  The suspension was new when it was
sandblasted.  It has the current aftermarket version of GE350 springs, swaybars, and
shocks.  It rolls.  It handled pretty good when it was running.  It has all drum
brakes.

It's available for anyone who wants to come and get it.  I've had it 30 years, and
it's been (when it was running) a GREAT car....I put 90K miles on it before decided
to upgrade it.  I got it off a lot in San Leandro in 1973.  It is 500 cars away (VIN
wise) from the new GT I bought in 1965.  

I have a box of some of the parts in the trunk....there are other things in storage.
 But to redo it, a more or less complete, body wise, donor coupe or convertible
would be needed.....these are available for a few hundred bucks.

But it goes to PnP in a week, if no one takes it.
