I have pulled wrenches for over 30 years, and judging from your previous videos, it appears to me that your experience level in mechanic/engineering is AT LEAST 10 years in advance of your chronological age. Never stop learning and never forget that there is inherent strength in triangulation. Outstanding job and work ethic!!!

He still does some goofy things, like put washers on his jam bolts for the car braces in the last video lol. But its just him overdoing things as a perfectionist so its not a negative. That’s why hes as skilled as he is already. He knows way more than i ever will and has nowhere to go but up from here.

Justa little advice here man . I have done so many of these cars I cannot count and its tough when you dont have a jig that was built off of a straight car. Get a set of factory rails and you will be ahead of the game. You might have to go whacking on them but atleast you can index them in the car and you have some kind of starting point. Get all the rails from under the seat to the nose for both sides and get the front end core support and lower cross member . That was you have a box of known dimensions to work inside of... You will have to pull strings side to side and from under out the front . That gives you straight lines to work off of... Love the energy boys,,,,,,makes me feel old !!!!
My timeline stops whenever this guy uploads.
Every Coyote swap I've seen on the early Stangs have a hood with a scoop on it because the motor is so tall. So don't worry about it. Raise that thing up.

No doubt. Vtuned has proven himself a frame master but props to him for taking on a build out of his comfort zone.
Dude this is an ambitious project just the type I love thanks for bringing it to us from Vt
Only V can casually cut a car in half. Normal operating procedures. I love how confident he is, even though he's never done this before. Love this build!!
I replaced the timing belt, water pump, all belts, hoses, radiator and carb in my b2200 in a week. I sit down feeling so proud like I owned the day and V churns out 100% custom video. Never stops amazing us. I can’t wait to see this fully running!
A true labor of love!
This is my favorite build on KZread. Can’t wait for the next build.
I have plenty of popcorn- measure as many times as it takes. I am absolutely gobsmacked! I've built a few cars- early on I went through the trouble to graft a 66' Fairlane suspenson and 390 engine into a 56' Ford Panel wagon; you have confidence that makes me want to cry! One day, please do a piece on how you learned all this and your hair isn't grey! MW just went off- more popcorn is ready!
i have done frame work for over 40 years and you have mad skills for your age .one thing don't use a impact on your pinch weld clamps screws up the threads use a big breaker bar and never seize takes longer to set up but its worth it. great job keep it up cant wait to see done!!!!!!!
You're a very talented young man, I enjoy your show.
VTUNED kick n ass and taking names when it comes to this build! 🛠 🧰! Come on people SUB him into the millions! Cheers 🍻
This is seriously the best car project I've ever seen. It's incredibly ambitious and creative, showing every step. Brilliant.
Shifter actually looks good where it is as long as it's not behind the steering wheel. Looks like it's slightly in front of it which in my opinion is a good placement. Major props on the build. You guys definitely have my respect. It took me 4 years to restore a '66 Mustang.

This is insane build. I hope will work out. I really can’t imagine it in my head anymore 😂🤯
I notice that every time he opens up a tool box, every tool is in its place, nothing missing. It takes discipline to put every tool back where it belongs the moment he is through with it, but the little bit of time it takes to do that pays big dividends when he doesn't have to spend half his time looking for the next tool he needs. His entire work ethic is impressive.
I'm actually lost for words..these guys are so young and they are taking on a highly complex build like this. They diserve all the good things coming their way!
My dream build😍😍 someday I'll get there
vTuned: "Well, it's toast." *literally throws it away*
Such an ambitious project! It was one thing to replace bad / damaged components, straiten the frame, put it all back together and body work and paint. Quite another to gut a car, cut it in half, build a new frame, and use engine and suspension assemblies that didn't exist 56 years ago.
I'm admittedly not a Ford guy but this project is fascinating, you just go at it with no fear, color me impressed. I honestly can't wait to see how the rest of this project shakes out.
1:58 is that 5.0 badge from the red Mustang? 😀
👍👍👍👍TOP!!!non vedo l ora di vederla finita vi seguo sempre!!!!🇮🇹
I’m not big into cars at all but this stuff is cool to watch. watching this build is addictive. This is the ultimate hybrid, old mustang body with new mustang components
Your skill level is amazing and the attention to detail you are giving this project will ensure it will be a success. Don't rush it. I don't care how many video's it takes. I will be watching every single one.
Only thing I look forward throughout the week is watching these videos 😂💯
Basically you are building a new car using some old parts. Amazing!
What you do with this 3’ inch gap is give it a slightly elevated “Mohawk stripe” ....in the area where you combine the 2 sides
Hi Vtuned.. I love the fact you have a vision and are prepared to move heaven and earth to see this mustang become the car you desire... Myself I can’t wait to see you driving it.. 🇬🇧🇬🇧

the long box tube is great for the front to back and do yourselves a favor and do the roll cage at the same time possibly make it part of the mounting system to mount the top shell of the car to your frame.
You are showing confidence in your abilities that l still lack after 50 years. ( in spite of building multiple award winning restorations that have gone world wide). Great stuff.

I Enjoy your build its great to see younger people get into this field. Wear a skullcap or bandana when you weld and grind so don't catch your hair on fire!
This youngster is way cooler than other people I see fixing cars, less talk and straight to the point. I'm anxious to see the turnout.

Been saying the same thing about Goonzsquad for a while now, they need to step it up and try something a little more advanced, not too crazy but at least something classic and slightly more custom. On the other hand I feel like this guy is way out of his depth with this one, just cutting up a car without any forward planning and obviously doesn't have much of a clue about how he's gonna get it all back together. Might have jumped in the deep end a bit. Really hope I'm wrong but I can see this one not ending well.

Actually he doesnt need to do that. That was one way that another engineer used. However, that was likely just made up as he went. He had a plan in advance which worked i assume. Provided vtuned has a plan of action, and researches enough, his basic skill set and abit of imagination will be enough to complete this project.

Engineers at Ford with MBA's and years of experience designing chassis etc..vTuned "It's the first time I've built a custom subframe" and didn't bat an eyelid; what confidence this kid has.
For custom cowl hood, cut the top off of two 66 Mustang fenders at a forward sloping angle. Then combine them with sheet steel. A friend did it to his 89 and it wasn't light, but looked OEM.
Well V-tuned this is going to be the beginning of your new life building one off custom cars you're going to get several offers asking you to build custom cars from car and truck bodies and engines that people bring you 5 times the money as a body shop, great beginning of your new Shop.
Poking out wheels look awesome honestly.
This is one seriously ambitious project. I hope you don't lose motivation once the little things need to get done. Keep up the awesome work as usual!
This is the best thing on KZread by far. I'm going to be so excited if he completes this and I'm thousands of miles away.
If this project gets done I will be in awe. So many variables, working in a non existent 4d space.
Great job bro just keep doing what your doing. I love it because you are truly showing us step by step what your doing. Not like a lot of other people who try everything first and then record it once they figure it out!! Keep up the great work !!!!
OSHA would have words regarding how you attached the chain to the engine, mainly because of safety concerns, but I think it’s cool how you’re sorta showing people the “anyone can do it, even with simple tools” way to rebuild and restore a car.
