    Dylan, those keystone wheels you took off the mustang are Keyston Rogues. Super duper rare, one piece molded magnesium chrome plated wheels. Favored by drag racers because of their very light weight. Looks like you have the complete set, clean them up and sell them to finance your next car project.

    When I have to jack up a car in a field, I like to find a piece of wood or something to put under it because as the jack goes up, the wheels sink into the dirt and the lift arm pulls forward and can slide right off of where you had it braced. With the woo, the wheels of the jack roll under the vehicle as it lifts.

    I don't know how much you plan on fixing up that Mustang but for semi-permanent repairs use self tappers and secure some license plates or sheet metal to the floors and you are golden. Well you might want to wire wheel those floor pans, rust convert them before you put down new sheet metal also seam seal them and paint. You don't want Brier to fall through the floor.

    Dylan, Dude, GREAT Video this week! You and Briar kept me chuckling and interested all the way through. Doesn't matter if it is a coupe or not, I have seen some in car shows that had the "Boss" stripe and somehow a rooftop spoiler similar to the MadMax (original Australian Falcon XB) movie car. Actually looked pretty cool. Keep up the good work!

Ya never see much of that on RUclips with these “found” cars. They always magically fire up with just a lil bit of tooling around. They’ll set the timing right where the factory wants it w/ no issues, drive em & not boil over. Simply amazing. Lol!
