1964 1/2 Mustang Project by Brett and Harry.....
by Brett
We got this 64 1/2 Mustang by chance from a customer wanting to clear out his yard. It had a opossum family in the trunk, but it started right up.... It's full of rust...and needs major work. My Mom was ready to help Harry restore it for my sister for a graduation present. Every time she had extra money, it went into a jar. the Mustang Jar. Then my Mom had a bigger project to do. Fight Breast Cancer. So the car was forgotten about while she took off work to fight for her life. Now, 3 years later, my Mom is a survivor. My sister graduated and went on to college and I am in need of a car. I am a Jr. in high school and want to try to finish this project for my Sr. year. My Friend Harry is a certified Mechanic. He is 55 and teaching me mechanics. I go to work with him almost everyday just to learn. He can't pay me but what I learn from him is better than money. I know I can do this...If I was rich. My mom borrowed a trailer and we drove 6 hours to pick up the car yesterday. That was a crazy. Now I see how much work we have. I am so ready... Hey Brett ! We're ready too! Glad to hear your mom's doing well. Lets see some pictures of your 1964 1/2 Mustang project car. Grab your camera and lets see your new "before pictures". It's great that you have the expert help of a mentor to get your project going right and you'll learn more by doing. If you forgot to upload the pictures of your 1964 1/2 mustang project, just post it to the comments and I will get it attached to this page so other pony car enthusiasts can check it out too. If you are doing the restoration work yourself, you`ll need a lot less money and learn a lot more.
