    I think you should restore the 66 Mustang to be a roadworthy car to highlight how much faster and better starting with a decent chassis means. I'm guessing you could sell it for a decent amount.

  • @damianlindsey6177

    A decent chassis to start with around here is going to set you back almost 20k for a roller for a fastback and about 10k for a coupe like the red one. That's nuts money for an incomplete 40+ year old car.

    This is probably the most useful video series on 60s bodywork repair on youtube, practical and on a budget. You've got mad skills and you explain things very clearly. At some point, if you haven't already, you may want to look at the order of the videos in the playlist. Last i checked it was showing them in reverse order. This is worth seeing from start to finish and getting them in chronological order would help. Thanks for all of these.

    EFI will not vapor lock if it is high pressure direct to cylinder or indirect to intake port. EFI carbs are great for fuel efficiency, but still succumb to heat the same as conventional carbs. EFI carbs are a poor mans engine customization. Get the modified heads and injectors and do it right.
