I just want to cruise around town in a 69 Ford Mustang

Step 1 ( you must have cash )
Step 2 ( pay )
Step 3 ( it’s yours )

.... and when checking for rust don't lie to yourself. If something looks suspect then it REALLY is

Second tip; don't pay top-dollar for a car with Pony seats, when the vin calls for Standard seats.

In the early 90's just stopped at this big car dealership, walked in and looked around, and then I heard my name, softly, coming from the back of the store, eduardo, eduardo..., and then there she was, candyred 289 67 coupe, 4 speed top loader, we enjoyed each other for the next 10 years...

I don't care about the value and price I want just want cruise around with a classic car and enjoying every ride with a companion.

If it looks like this car in the video  go over the car even more. Just cause it looks nice with paint on it doesn't mean it's not rusty under the paint.

At 25, FINALLY bought a ‘67 K-code 289 hard top.

I want my 65 mustang. car is so simple and so sexy at the same time

Even though this video is 7 years old, I learned a lot and appreciate you posting it.

I’m 16 got my 65 a couple months ago, I love it. I would rate it a 4

Had a 66 Fastback in the early 80's, didn't know what we really had we just loved racin!

I honestly prefer the coupe.

Honestly I wouldn’t mind taking an old 65 through 68 fastback

And putting a 5.0 coyote in the thing

Would be a classic car with a modern heart

I've wanted this car for a very long time. I'm 21 now and I'm going to start saving up CAN'T WAIT TO OWN THIS AMAZING CAR!!!

My grandpa bought mine for my 21st birthday, the only rust it has is on the muffler which I removed, and we sanded down the rest. We bought the 1965 C-Code coupe that was modified for $2,500 back in '09, the reason why it sold so low was because it was brown, and it wasn't all original.

I was so glad to hear you warn people about the cowl panels on these old mustangs.  I bought a red 1965 coupe because it was almost identical to the one I had back in Vietnam times.  Actually, my son went and bought it for me.  Looked decent and ran o.k. but it had a leaking cowl panel.  Silly me.  I thought "no problem.  Can't be that hard to replace that little panel.  WRONG!  Was/is a nightmare to replace cowl panels on these old mustangs.  You have to take the front end of the car apart to properly replace these SOBs.  And so many old mustangs for sale that look decent but the cowl is a "ticking time bomb" on them.  The OP does warn toward the end of this video to get up under the dash and check near the heater for evidence of a leak.  LISTEN TO HIM!  And ask seller specifically if the cowl panel has been replaced before you buy one. Now I got my old mustang for a decent price so can't say I got "SKINNED" but I did not do enough research before buying.  Of course the one I had back in Vietnam times didn't have a leaking cowl panel because it simply was not old enough to yet.  Oh.  Also.  Be prepared to pay a boatload of gold if you want one of the old fastbacks.  As stated, I did not get skinned on the one I bought but people are paying insane prices for all of the old fastback models.  There is a guy named Dan Peterson who takes old rusted fastback models out of  junkyards and completely re-manufactures them.  But he has exceptional technical and mechanical skills.  He has many posts on YouTube.  If you have the mechanical skills and watch his posts he will show you how to rebuild one those old mustangs from basic frame up. Enough.

I just bought a very good 3+ daily driver for $8500. I won't have to put much into it, I don't race and I'm not going to win any shows. But I will have fun maintaining and driving it.

Thank you! This video (and the 20+ others I've watched) came in handy in catching my first 48 year old pony!

I want to get on for my little brother since he’s always wanted one
