Which Pony To Choose For Your Project Is An Ongoing Question (http://www.mustangandfords.com/techarticles/body/mdmp_1003_best_mustangs_to_modify/index.html)If you're dreaming up your next classic Ford project then you've probably gone over a huge range of possibilities in your head. If you've settled on a Mustang for your next undertaking, then deciding which year and model to work on might seem like an easy choice, but is it? The natural inclination would be to build your all-time favorite model, but if your favorite is a '69 Boss 302 (thanks, rub it in Wayne!-Ed.) then initial cost and parts availability can quickly factor into your considerations. If you can afford a genuine Boss Mustang then there is no problem, but if you're like many of us, the cost of these cars has gone out of reach, and so the search is on for something more affordable. What should you buy and build when budget limitations are present? The most common classic Mustang is the '65-'68 coupe. Ford built more of these than any other type. Coupes are a good way to enter the hobby because they are the most numerous and hence cost the least.inline_mediumwraptextrightThis little yellow coupe is a '66 and it shows what can be done starting with a six-cylinder car as a basis. This mildly modified Mustang has a hopped up engine, five-lug wheels, and all the external details looking good. The K-style "high performance" emblem highlights the number 200. The upside to the six-cylinder cars is inexpensive initial cost and economical operation. Parts availability for the inline engine is not nearly as great as for the 289, but there are a small group of die-hard parts companies still supporting them. We think the vinyl top is always a good-looking option on this body style.26632265/techarticles/body/mdmp_1003_best_mustangs_to_modifymdmp_1003_02_+bes t_mustangs_to_modify+1966_mustang_coupe.jpgTrue
