What are some of the most custom things you have done to your mustangs For me, i have painted the bumpers and chrome around the brake lights black to match the 2 strips on the car. Im putting the exhaust out the quarter panel.

These are part of the end product...I installed an oem AC unit on the car but did not want to cut my console....I built my own manifold, mounted the air exchange unit under the package tray and (hand) fabbed up aluminum AC vents through the package tray......i wanted them to look old school- as if they came out of a Lincoln, etc.


and my cable actuated hood lock....



and while there are no pics....i fabbed up a mounting bracket to install 2- 3"x3" speakers in where the oem radio speaker location.......just a few of my thoughts.....

Still working on it, but 90% of the way there. Just finishing the body work, but will be functional soon. Adding the hood scoop, and trying to find the right pistons to keep it up. 96 cobra drive train. mod 4.6, T45, 8.8 rear end, R & C RC 107 front suspension, R & C 4 link rear, ect, ect...

I crammed a 331 EFI stroker into the 65:



Kinda hard to see but I made a custom aluminum radio delete plate/switch panel. It houses switches for the driving lights, electric fan override, and the hazard lights:

MII coil over front, coilover rear, classic auto air, 9" Versailles rear, T-5, 5.0 with 10:1, TW heads, balanced, Stage 1 cam, EZ EFI fuel injection, custom gauges, smoked glass, and up next is the new TMI Sport Seat II interior. And down the road planning on power windows.
Forgot a big one. AAW wiring harness.

I'm trying to keep up with Scott. Once I get the car done, it will have the following mods:

MII coilover front end
5.0 EFI conversion (built to about 350 HP) backed by a T56 6-speed
Complete 1986 Mustang wiring harness adapted to the '66
Power locks with keyless entry
Cruise control (factory setup from '80s Mustang)
Vintage Air heat & A/C
Quarter panels blended to the rockers, rear valance, and transition piece between the rear window and trunk
TMI Sport Seats
Custom built steel plate surrounding the top of the gas tank (which, by the way, was swapped out to a larger 22 gallon 1970 Mustang tank)
Higher output headlights powered by a relay system that I built
GT rear valance so that the tailpipes exit through the valance

Fabbed up headers and hot side to put a turbo 351w in my 67. The other is an F-150 8.8 with 9" ends, big axles and Explorer disk brakes. Current project is Megasquirt3/3X and E85

Any info on how you did this? I wanted to do the same to my 67 vert so I don't have to stop for gas as much

Buy the 70 gas tank and sending unit. Cut about 1.5-2" off the filler neck and hook it up. I just did the same for my 67 Fastback.

check out this link but there are many on this site about this mod.
