    FlipTop has a Sister!

    I have been looking for another project since completing my MKIV Roadster. An opportunity fell into my lap and I couldn't pass it up. It is not, however, a Factory Five. It is a 1967 Mustang Coupe.





    I have started an "Off-Topic" Build thread for her, "Jazzman's 1967 Ford Mustang Build: FlipTop gets a Sister!" You will not see my posts on the general feeds of currently active threads because this is not an FFR build. (That seems reasonable!) However, if you would like to go along with me on this next journey, please click on the above link, leave your comments over on the build thread, and remember to subscribe to the thread so you will get notifications of when I add more stuff.

    Rest assured I am not leaving the FFR family! I could not be more proud of FFR, this forum, and all you, my friends. I read your posts practically every day! I am just enlarging my horizons temporarily, and improving my skills along the way in preparation for the next FFR build. I want to raise the bar on each successive build. I hope to do the same with this Mustang.

    (Chuckle!!) Adorable might be a stretch, but she's got good bones. My wife says I saved her. She needed someone to show her some love and dress her back up. I think I can do that.

    Since you won't see any posts I add on my Off-topic build thread, please be sure to subscribe to it. Great to have you coming along for the ride!

    I found an interesting opportunity for my Mustang build. Could I ask you to go over to that Off-Topic Build thread and give me your opinion? Link to the build thread is in my signature. Thanks!

    Saved her??? No way - that's a really nice looking starting point. Congrats on the new project - Mustangs are a great follow-on to an FFR and make a nice alternative cruiser.

    This is what a car looks like when you save it.



    .... and after all the trees were cut down to get it out of it's 35 year resting place

    Later,
