That Mustang is worse than this one, not roof frame, no driveline, will be more expensive than this one.
Yeah but driveline isnt a problem for me, got heaps to choose from. Apart from the roof frame and bonnet i would still be replacing the same items and panels . I would still need to chase up another full set of convertible seats , get inside trim etc as i am with this one. I would get it and load it up with all the parts if i had the cash , doesnt scare me at all. :-D

As far as the build goes , all the panels and parts are on a ship bound for WA atm , along with Dynamics Coupe , and Chadds parts for his vert and coupe. Any spare time is going on the fastback atm :thumbs:

No idea about ETA , i have mentioned it twice in emails. I asked about the F100 and other cars and he didnt mention it was sold just that the white vette was pending and chevy truck was sold so proberly still available.

On it's way to Singapore, then container changes ships and heads to Freo. Ken said he'd send me the name of the ship once it leaves Singapore.

Picked up my parts order for the vert and fastback the other day. Late Xmas pressy and very insperational. The 2.5"Magna flow stainless system is for my Fastback. Now the fun begins all over again :-D

A convertible rear seat i was missing, i got on ebay in the US $125, unfortunately it then cost me a further $250 postage and then whatever it cost to import here with my other goods. Proberly owes me $500 now, which is what i expected.
Its got a good frame so thats the main thing and its getting recovered in white trim.
