For over 18 years, I’ve been professionally restoring Classic Ford Mustangs, Falcons and Mercury Cougars. I have done everything from complete restorations to restorative repairs. These days, not everyone has the time or money to restore their Classic Fords all at once. Most will do it in phases until the restoration is complete, but some may get frustrated or lose motivation in the process. This is where I can help. It’s easier to budget your restoration into small projects, and complete each project. I can help you plan your restoration out into logical steps, and in some cases even drive it during the process. Your restoration should be fun, not stressful.
Classic cars need more attention than newer cars, so I can help you do the required preventative maintenance and repairs to keep it in top operating condition. I will not just repair the obvious. I do restorative repairs, and that requires looking at the surrounding parts for any issues. For example, if your window regulator needs replacement, I will check and lubricate all the door’s internals. Door panels have cardboard backings, and will tear from removing too many times, so you should take care of all door issues once. I know Classic Mustangs inside and out, and my work is very meticulous. I will first evaluate your Mustang, and tell you where the known problem areas are. Then, come up with a repair/maintenance plan in the order of importance. By the way, I don’t just work on Mustangs. You can call me for all your Classic needs.
I offer an affordable alternative to a Ford restoration shop, and I treat your car like it is my own. “OK” will not do. I will make sure it is right the first time. I put my name on my work, and will guarantee it. I build long term relationships with my customers.
For me it’s about the classic lines of an old car. They’re an extension of our personality. When going for that Sunday drive, they remind us of our American Freedoms. Don’t Waste Them! Cruise Them!
I cruise a 1966 Ford Mustang and a 1962 Ford Falcon. What do you cruise?
AWESOME 6 Cyl Mustang! I currently am restoring a 65 6 Cyl convertible and have had restored a number of 6′s. Where did you get the WAY COOL “I-6″ Emblems?
Thanks. The emblems were off of a 1955 Ford Ranch Wagon, but they were in bad shape. I found a set of NOS ones in the original boxes. The part number is B5A-16237-A. I will post a picture on my next blog entry.
Hey, your Mustang is amazing. I’ve been thinking about adding those emblems to my Mustang for a couple years now. I drive a 1966 Mustang Sprint 200 coupe.
I am retoring a 1966 Mustang for my Wife and she saw the pictures of your 1966 interior in a Google Image search. It doesn’t look like the classic cherry red and I was wondering if you could tell me the color…it almost looks like a cayenne red? Please help, I don’t want to disappoint. If you email me, I can send you the pic that I am referring too.
Thanks man,
Tim
I painted my Mustang the original candy apple red (code T) in Dupont’s Imron. That particular paint is not available anymore, but you can have it matched in any brand. 1966 offered two reds: Candy Apple Red (T) and Signal Flare Red (5). The Signal Flare Red is almost orange. There was a Poppy Red offered in 1965
I’m getting a 1966 Mustang with a 200 C.I. inline six banger.It has 30,000 original miles and has been totally restored by Wink Smith.It is being trailered to me in Utah in August.I’ll keep posting info as I get it.
