70 olds JR.:
Well done on this restoreation keep the progress up like that and you will have a classy mustang in few years

Infected Mushroom:
Some updated photos of the lower cowl. I drilled out all of the spotwelds and removed all the parts, some of the parts as well as the cowl panel needed some TLC before priming. After the repair and a bath in the molasses and water, I used a wire wheel on the grinder to prepare it for paint. The grey stuff is self-etching primer, then the black epoxy primer is sprayed on. 

Infected Mushroom:
Still Rollin'.

Had to get into the thinking box about what I should do with the frontend. Unfortunately there were a few issues with it, one of them being the inner fenders were overlapping the shock towers on the outside, and not the inside like original.

I have always thought the 65-66 shock towers look bulky, and I really wanted to have more engine compartment space like the 67-70 Mustangs, so I made a desiscion to replace the shock towers with the ones from 1970. This way I also solved the issue with the fender/shock tower overlapping.

Then came another issue; the frame rails were to narrow for the new shock towers. After a long time of thinking and measuring, I ended up with replacing both frame rails for the Dynacorn version. They are made for '69-70 models, but will fit 65-68 too. Inner fenders were also replaced for the new 1-piece from Dynacorn, and made to fit around the new shock towers.

Moli:
Excellent work, what motor/trans is going in it?

var þessi bíll svona illa farinn reindar er hann heill meðað við aldur var hann ekki sammt búin að standa inni skúr í uppgerð i 20 eða 30 ár var hann kanski bara i geymslu
