Re: Restoration heaven!
You could build plenty of decent ones out of it Bas, only trouble is you could buy 2 good ones for the cost of saving one basket case.
You are correct Scott, loads of potential for couches & bbqs etc. I am back on board Justang.

Re: Restoration heaven!
Just parts like original doors and fenders would be worth a lot here in aus, I am looking for a clutch and brake assembly, nothing to be found here and even in the states they are around the $250 mark.
Re: Restoration heaven!

Supposed to have sold the stang and moved on, but cant keep away from this place or my stang for that matter!!! ever tried to sell your left nut?
Re: Restoration heaven!
Minisota....49 cars...al rooted and inop...Sheri would cut both of em off
$50,000 just to get them picked up
Probably another $10,000 to get the parts picked up, plus the bid of say $20,000 for a pile of shagged mustangs with no titles.
$80,000 would buy alot of shagged mustangs down here in Florida
Im sure this is a divorce sale
Must admit, having a little walk through of the shed would be some fun shit...thats where all the love is

Re: Restoration heaven!
This will be a good one to keep an eye on
Re: Restoration heaven!
For all those thinking of the USA wrecking yard, cruise night & Route 66 tour next year........ you will see lots of these types of collections & you will only be too happy to leave them there...
Not even any parts worth having, anything decent would have gone away 30 years ago from those types of collections.

I am sure you are right Kerry, it's just that you never see anything like it here.ozbilt wrote:For all those thinking of the USA wrecking yard, cruise night & Route 66 tour next year........ you will see lots of these types of collections & you will only be too happy to leave them there...

Re: Restoration heaven!
You only need the pedals as the pedal box remains the same. The pedal box & pedals are unique to the 65/6.unilec5544 wrote:Not sure if the 67 is the same but I am looking for a 65/66.shermatt wrote:Mark,unilec5544 wrote:Just parts like original doors and fenders would be worth a lot here in aus, I am looking for a clutch and brake assembly, nothing to be found here and even in the states they are around the $250 mark.

Buy the clutch pedal new & cut down the pad on your auto brake pedal.
Send me the pedal box & I will fit roller bearings for you, (67/8 box shown).....

Re: Restoration heaven!
Pedal box mod is neat.
Thanks for the photo.
Thanks for the photo.
I will someday think of something clever to say.
Re: Restoration heaven!
If you are going RHD use an XA-XC falcon pedal box, booster hydraulic clutch etc. Just cut the dash snout off the mustang one and weld them together just back from the falcon brake light switch, have look at my car. Falcon pedal boxes are the same XA-XF, but only the ealry cars are hydrulic clutch which is what you want. One on the left is modified XB, other is an XF auto. The boxes are the same you just need longer shaft for the top and falcon clutch pedal.unilec5544 wrote:Just parts like original doors and fenders would be worth a lot here in aus, I am looking for a clutch and brake assembly, nothing to be found here and even in the states they are around the $250 mark.

Re: Restoration heaven!
If you were to Win the auction, you have until November 1st to remove everything! and he's not selling his block, so buying him out completely is not an option...

Re: Restoration heaven!
thanks Kerry and Shaun, I will look into getting a clutch pedal and doing the mod to my original pedal box as in the picture.
