1965 Ford Mustang Fastback 2+2. Early build date of Jan 1965 :D. I'm going to finally get started on this project after the 1st of the year. The car doesnt have the original engine, but i was able to find a pretty early 1965 Code A 289. I'm looking forward to it!

well have fun with that. why'd you choose a fastback? if i was going to restore anything it would have to be a mid-60's camero. i started on a '72 land cruiser for a while but ended up selling it.

so, invadertoast... want to paint me a bp? hood to trunk?

My uncle has a '67 Shelby Mustang, he's also in the process of restoring it... I can't freaking wait 'til he finally finshes, this project has been goin' on since I was a little kid! My other uncle also has a '66 that he wants to do something with... it's pretty boned out though, and his wife won't let him play with it because she's mean... but someday :) lol

Sure! Just gimme 'til next spring/summer when I graduate, I don't learn airbrushing in detail 'til next year. I'd be happy to do it for ya :D

my grandpa has a 68' shelby mustang gt 350 is blue with white twin stripes....its so beautiful

now back on to the subject

come from a ford family at all? personally i'm more partial to GMs, but i have had my thing for a GT 500 before (though i'm over it)

so, lindsay... are you into cars or painting? or more the combination?

Both, heheh. I've always liked to draw stuff, but when the time came to think about art schools I decided I really, REALLY didn't want to be a graphic designer. I've also always, always, always liked cars. A couple summers ago my boyfriend got a brown Plymouth Sundance (it was cheap and available... lol) and we painted it two-tone w/ flames as a joke. Then I had an epiphany and e-mailed a couple custom car/sign guys in my area, and found out about the Butera School of Art. I'm lucky 'cause it's the only school in the world that teaches sign/custom car painting and it's right in Boston :D So, that's my life story... lol.

Oh and I'm a Ford girl at heart, but I'm open to pretty much anything and everything, except imports (sorry guys, I can't understand the 4 cyl. thing...)

LOL, i definitely don't get the import thing. THERE'S NOTHING SPECIAL ABOUT A HONDA CIVIC!! i'll try not to hold it against you that you're a ford girl. that just means you haven't spent enough time driving nice cars ;) i used to be a toyota girl (an old TLC could drive right up a wall!) but then i met the chevy that stole my heart.

Lol, I'm currently driving an '85 Linocln Mark VII with a worn out 302... nothing special, but I love that car, she's been good to me, lol. I'm waiting on my uncle with the Shelby to hand down his '88 LSC to me... hopefully next spring. Then I can tell all my friends that I have two Lincolns and people might think I'm rich ;) I like my share of GMs too though, I got to drive a '68 Firebird with a 400 in it, now that was awesome!!! And my boyfriend has me turning my head at every old Buick that comes within a 100 mile radius of me. I haven't done too much off-roading... but I did get to drive a '68 Austin Gypsy. That was hard, but fun!

So what Chevy was it that stole your heart? :)
