I met both of these guests today in the Vintage Mustang 6 Forum on Facebook, even had a chance to watch the miracle of a new wiring harness and all sorts of goodness being added to a 6-banger in SoCal. Excited to have maybe a more technical conversation than I am ready for. A little scared but confident in my ability to hit the "mute" button.

My ‘66 was born aqua. I got mine after my brother passed (he was a corvette guy though). He restored antique muscle for a living. I asked myself “what am I waiting for? Life is fleeting”. Saved up my tips from pouring beer at a brewery on Friday nights and paid cash. Now I am slowly restoring this car with my 12 year old daughter.

Guest email: Hello Doug, my name is Jonathan. We are from central Washington State. My daughter Sydney and I just finished restoring her 1967 mustang coupe in the spring of 2024 just before her wedding. It was a full rotisserie ground up build. We had to replace quarter panels, floor pans, doors and several other things. It's a c-code 289 2-v but we updated with fuel injection, Borgeson power steering, air conditioning, all new wiring and many other updates. We made our own paint booth to paint it inside our shop. This mustang was originally my dad's, and I drove it in high school and college. My dad also has 1966 and 1968 mustangs too. My daughter Sydney has an Instagram page called letmegoaskmydad that has a lot of photos of the car being built. We always listened to your podcast while working on the car .

My mustang is a lethargic six banger that I originally planned to put a 302 into but at the time my father-in-law talked me into keeping the six.
