    I love what you do with these Gems in the rough. I have probably seen that BOSS 302 when I lived in Iowa and Yes, that is what the Salt and Chloride do to a Car in Iowa. I grew up in Cedar Rapids, I had 2 1966 Mustangs, a 1973 Mustang, a 1966 Fairlane, a 1971 Ranchero. Not all at one time, but I did have them. One 1966 Mustang was my first car and I had it for 33 years, both 66s were coupes. Back in the late 80s early 90s there was a Red BOSS 302 sitting on the ground, driveline completely removed, it was in Whittier Iowa, but disappeared. I also knew a guy that had a 1968 Selby and a Cal Yarborough Special, he also had 2 door 1964 wagons. I almost feel like a part of this BOSS 302 as it was sold in my town. Out of all the Mustangs FORD made I wish I had an original 1969 BOSS 429, never gonna happen, but that is what dreams are! Yes, the State of Iowa and many other states use, not only salt and salt brine to treat winter roads, but also Chloride to keep sand from freezing in the middle of winter. I know as I used to work in the Iowa Highway Maintenance shop and spread that crap on road for many years. Chloride was the Rust maker and salt helped. Many cars would rust out on the drivers side worse than the passenger side because of the fact, mixtures were put down more toward the centerlines, and traffic would splatter that mixture over the drivers side. Good Luck and GOD BLESS!!! I'll be watching!!!

Loved that car and wish l still had it. The 1970 is my favorite body style. Ford got everything right, aesthetically speaking, that year. Woud love to watch an entire build up on this car.

    When I was in high school, I had a teacher who was into Mustangs. He ordered the first Mustang sold by our local dealer, a 260 automatic coupe. Although he had a physical handicap, his next one was a '66 GT fastback, 289 hi-po 4-speed. He followed that with a '69 Mach 1, 351 4-bbl, 4-speed. His last was a '70 Boss 302 in Medium Lime Metallic. He added an interior decor group, shaker hood and spoiler. Three years later, he married and traded the Boss on a new '73 Ford pickup.

    My first car was a ‘65 Mustang. I currently own a 2013 Laguna Seca and I’ve often thought that it feels like a well done resto-mod of a 60s muscle car. Since that car is pretty rough and without so many original parts, I’d vote for modern drivetrain/suspension... Consider the modern Boss 302 drivetrain too - with the addition of an MGW Race-Spec shifter and McLeod RTS Twin Disc clutch the transmission is golden with the stock 444 hp... Good luck whatever you decide!!

    Restomod! Since the original drivetrain is missing and almost all of the sheet metal has to be replaced, at best it would only be a clone of its original self. Try to get the drivetrain out of a modern GT350 or GT500 and as unobtrusively as possible, put in the best suspension and brakes available.
