I have a 67 Mustang that I have had since I was a teenager. Its in poor cosmetic condition, but has a really good rebuilt 289 in it. I need to find somebody that will work hourly for several weeks or maybe a month to bring everything into order.
I don't need collectible grade work, just reliable and no jerry rigging unless its necessary
It's the type of stuff that most folks would enjoy doing as a weekend project, but I never get around to it.
Here is a list or thing that I know need to get done. you can probably go x2.
New Carpet, seat covers
Repaint interior panel
Repair window cranks
Repair Door Latch
New Convertible top
Rewire ignition for electronic distributor
New leaf springs
Repair one fender
Remove, rechrome, or replace trim that has oxidized
Possibly even take it down to the frame, sandblast, repaint.
I would guess this would cost about $10K to $15k if I just took it somewhere. I can't afford or justify that.
Any thoughts? There was a guy in smyrna who was a retired Lockheed guy who I was going to have do it. I think his shop has since closed.
