1962 Ford Fairlane Two Door - Something Different

Brian Knigga's Fairlane Build Proved More Challenging Than The Typical Mustang ProjectIt's been said that one could build a '65-'66 Mustang from a catalog. Barring the actual unibody (Dynacorn will soon solve this with its reproduction body shell), this is a fairly accurate observation. This is one statement that we espouse often to aspiring classic Mustang owners that ask us about restoring a Mustang. Like any hobby, if you go in too deep and too fast, you either run out of money, patience, time, or a combination of the three. Starting with a '65-'66 Mustang means parts will be easy to find, any aftermarket updates like modern wiring, suspension, and brakes are already figured out and just a phone call away. Brown drives up your street and drops off a lot of boxes and it's off to the garage you go. The last thing we'd recommend to a first time potential classic Mustang buyer is something like a big-block '69-'70 with Thermactor Air emissions. All of the pieces to do it right are insanely expensive, and while these cars are seeing more parts reproduced, they still do not have the parts resources like the '65-'68 Mustangs do.
