some of you may recall or know that my buddy has a 65 Fastback (among other projects). I posted some time ago that I was trying to buy it from him. He started it when his wife died in a car wreck. I think it was good therapy.
Anyway, he is now taken over the 67 Coupe that I had bought from John for a drag car. He also bought my 68 Fastback that I sold to fund painting my red car. (see the latest Official StangFix Drag Car topic for pics).
Anyway, today he asked if I regretted getting rid of those two cars. The 68 was pretty bad but the 67 was solid. I only made a deal with him because I knew he would combine the two and make a cool car. But I was sad that I let both of them go.
The Falcon is a great project but I'm still a Mustang guy. You all may also know I bought a 65 Coupe for parts but found it was too nice to part out (for the Falcon anyway).
Today my buddy asked my if I wanted to buy his 65 Fastback project. I was surprised as I had tried in the past but he wouldn't sell because he wanted to see it thru to the end. Now he is obsessed with the 67/68 Fastback conversion and would apply the funds to making it an Eleanor.
Anyway, do you all think I'm crazy if I buy the 65 Fastback? It was basically a roof and pretty much everything else is all new sheetmetal. It's missing all the little stuff but he has the glass and most of the major parts. Pretty much what ever is missing I can take off of the 65 coupe.
