About the 1964–1973 Ford Mustang
from the generation archive
The First-Gen Mustang community here covers everything from sleek 1969 convertibles in black to bold 1966 ragtops posed against mountain landscapes and 1967 coupes sporting aggressive hood scoops on the lawn. You'll find these builds in every stage — from bare-metal interiors with wiring harnesses and floor jacks mid-restoration to finished rides with GT/CS stripes showing off in the sun.
The story
Bought in 2003 from a co-worker for $250 and put in my barn. I do not know how long the car sat by Dickinson Bayou but if it was still there in 2008, Ike would have claimed it as Ike did with so many cars and houses when it made landfall. The $250 purchase also included an ‘89 Celica GTS and a family of rather large rats. Rat traps did not seem to help the rat infestation. The arrival of an even larger rat snake cured the rat problem. As I understand it, having a rat motor in a Chevy is actually a good thing but it seems a snake will take care of a rat even if the snake is not a Cobra. — e-rancher
