The Customer of this Classic Mustang came to us with a desire to have a daily drivable car, that was going to be reliable and safe.

Some of the issues that immediately came to light was the drum brakes on the front of the car were going to impede stopping distances.  The lack of any seat belts and a bit of a clunky noise from the differential, were also going to be things that needed looking into.

As with many restorations or modifications to older vehicles, you dont really know what your going to find and it didnt take long for us a to find a few major snagging points.  These included a cracked differential (too many donuts :-) ) and a rusted out floor plan.  These were all items that we needed to address on the way to making it a safe drivable car.
