My '65 Honda-Stang is About to Get WAY More Offensive

- Опубликовано: 3 окт 2024
- In this video, I score an OEM fastback roof for free (watch to see how) and I prepare Masutangu for its yearly outing at the purist-ridden Ford Nationals. FWD burnouts, hidden camera negotiations, and the usual immaturity all ensue!
"Masutangu" is my 1965 Ford Mustang Coupe that I body-swapped onto a turbocharged 1996 Honda Civic chassis. It's the world's first front wheel drive, Honda-powered classic Mustang. Watch the entire build on my channel!

Much love!
That guy selling the deal seemed really chill and reasonable, im assuming thats because you didnt tell him where the fastback roof was going lol
Got him all warm and fuzzy knowing the youngin's still care about the classics. 😇

@LockHeadAC103 yeah it sucks. Ion even watch there uploads anymore just cuz of how meh they look and how meh they actually are
Facts
I love Toms refurb lol it's like the opposite of whislin diesels vehicle destruction.
I love that instead of intentionally destroying them... he's drives the shit out if them to destroy them. Love this dude.
Thank you for this comment- I respect WD's success and have watched him in the past, but I try to focus on creation instead of destruction. It doesn't help that I look like him tho lol
@@TOMSREFURB Its that midwest mechanic boy look brother, keep on rolling the content you're killing it looking foward to masutangu's glorious restoration to fastback!
@@TOMSREFURByou act like him too 😭
Great negotiation skills. I’d honestly like to see more of that aspect.
A near perfect negotiation. Make an offer, then counter-offer to meet halfway between that and the asking price.
Really? That was a good negotiation? I mean I guess so. I wouldn’t have even hit him with the 3,500, that was a little disrespectful I think.
@@MAGA_Randy_Marshse la vi
@@MAGA_Randy_Marsh He literally asked if he could lowball him, and the guy said yes.
That was actially quite a bad negotiation. He could have raised less than a 1000 in the beginning but directly set the thing up for 5000k
As a classics guy and a JDM guy too, this is amazing. Just enough to have fun, but also piss off the purist who hate it.😂❤
I was going to say, I'm an enthusiast of both, so this project makes my man parts tingle lol
I'm feeling the same way and I'm really conflicted about it. As a Mitsubishi guy Honda is the sworn enemy but I love this mutt
Tom makes me wanna drive recklessly at all times
He's got the highest levels of chaos in his blood allowed before its lethal, I swear 😂
Closed Mexico toads everywhere
I feel sorry for your children. LOL
Soooooo....what's holding you back?
Laws? Huh!! Laws are for worrisome little puss pants.

I love this build so much! This video reminded me of the time I made all the other 64 1/2 mustangs worth more money. I was working on a 66 a guy was having built to remake his lady's high school car. The roof was bad and he acquired another body shell for us to take the a good one from. When it arrived I noticed the shock towers weren't for V6 like he said the car was. I ran the vin plate. 1964 1/2 V8 4 speed car originally. Something like 123 made if I recall. Called customer up and told him what I found and asked what he wanted to do. Said no title, too hard to get and just use the roof...he didn't care. I giggled with glee as I cut that car into 6 pieces for the roof and the scrapper. The rest of em were slightly more rare and valuable and that 66 looked a million bucks with the new roof. I love telling mustang guys about it at car shows. Wish we had cameras on our phones back then so I coulda saved some pics LOL
The mustang was the civic of the 60s and does't deserve the revere it gets. This is the PERFECT engine swap!
The fastback option would be sick I actually like it
Eranol
You put an old car back on the road. Restomod or not it's an amazing car and I applaud you for the work
This is pretty neat. The video doesn't show all the knowledge, research, and time/effort put into everything at the end of the day. The upset boomers don't see it and that's why theyre getting mad. This project is incredible and super cool to see, great job man and keep it up.
I am a 65 year old petrol head
People like Tom Bailey etc do exactly what you are doing.
Its a breath of fresh air to see the very much younger generations excited about cars and to see the enthusiasm diplayed while you are having fun.
I say kudo's to you for making a plan and marrying two very unlikely cars and making a streetable rat rod (i am not even sure what to call the car) and having a blast. Envy of half the country for the guts to envision it firstly, then to actually build and drive it secondly.
Dont worry about the nay sayers, you will always be damned if you do and damned if you dont.
It catches attention and can do decent launches too
Breath of fresh air.
Keep on keeping on
Heads up
Eyes open
No fear
Twin engine, twin engine, twin engine, twin engine.
Put another 4-banger in the trunk.
Twin engine.
He will have 8 cylinders then to appease the purists
I’ve owned my ‘65 289 hardtop for more than 40 years and it’s about to get a 5.0 transplant. I love early Mustangs, needless to say. What you’ve done with this car is nothing short of amazing. I’m hoping it gets a more finished look someday, but in the meantime, enjoy it as it is and good luck with the fastback conversion.
Awesome build!😂 such a fun ride. Sounds great but unexpected coming from that body!
This project makes me so freakin happy lol. These are the types of projects i love too see
Saw ya cruising by today on my way home from work….so strange seeing that car and then hearing the sound as it goes by…..i love it!! Lol
Love the sound when boost kicks in 🤤
Tom, it’s really cool to see that kids these days are still doing what me and my friends did when we were young. I LOVE that you’re building cars, and hanging out with your friends. Will likely be the best time if your life. Love the channel!
I love it man. This is the best looking honda civic in the world lmao. I cant wait to see the fast back on. You are absolutely right about the sheet metal, you can actually buy a near finished body from sellers like Dynacorn for less then 18k and if you can register it as a 68 so tell the haters to suck it
Looks like WD long lost brother. They need a collaboration to happen!!
Now, the most impressive thing would be...To be able to have a Coupe/Fastback Interchangeably. CAN TOM DO IT?
And a convertible for the weekends.
Dudes becoming one of my favorite RUclipsrs can't wait to see the fastback civic
I LOVE THIS BUILD, it's so ridiculous and so unique
This is the most American thing I've watched today
Lovin' the video's Tom. Been watching your channel all day!!
Love your vids! Your vibes are immaculate! Keep on doing your thing! You inspire me to make a clapped out racecar and mob around 😂❤
i am so thankful youtube suggested this. Love it tom. You're goin places.
Blew a rod through my civic to make it home to see this vid on the big screen
The amount of raw chaotic energy spewing from these videos is amazing. Everyone is taking themselves too seriously these days, I love to see shit like this.
Such an underrated channel You have Tom. If you can continue to roll out videos on these unique builds with your style your gunna get big fast id say brother. I hope you make a bunch of $$ and can completely change you and your families lifestyle for the better sir! Good luck tom!!!
It’s like if whistling diesel built cool stuff instead of destroying it
@@GratefulEd907 Good summary
I love everything about this... and your outro pretty much squashing all the crap you were about to get was PERFECT. Nice job!
A supercharger setup would be badass and sound so unique
I have a very simple formula for happiness, it goes, Tom loads video then I watch them
This channel is fs gonna blow if you keep putting this fire content out brotha i love it
It already blows lol
Love this guy I check his channel everyday waiting for a video lmao he’s def going somewhere. Keep it up brotha and keep posting ur def going somewhere
Nobody should be mad at you messing with something that was destined to just sit there and rust away. What you've done is really awesome.
I’ve been following you for like almost a year and always forget you have a RUclips and just now started watching. Bro you’re incredible, these are so entertaining and funny man keep it up !
Honestly i cant wait to see this thing in a fastback its already radical as hell.
That ending…….priceless!! Coolest build on RUclips.👌🏽🔥🔥🔥
I’m not an import fan and this thing is kinda an abomination to me, but I can absolutely appreciate the amount of time you have put in to enjoy YOUR car. I subscribed just to see how the fastback conversion goes. Loving the rat muscle build
Tom has been dropping absolute bangers lately. Zero misses, tell everyone you know to watch if they're into cars or not!
I love this. It's a really good build and it's meant to be fun. Its destroying that 'eleitist" mentality that has ruined the car scene from what it was. It used to be fun and was about coming together. This makes me smile when I watch it.
This was beautiful, what a piece of RUclips content. This is the best video I’ve watched all day, love the energy and the funny and functional content. I like to see RUclipsrs that actually are having fun.
Not a mustang guy at all, but this build had intrigued me and I am definitely looking forward to seeing it in fastback form.
Literally my favorite channel on RUclips. Giving off strong WhistlinDiesel energy my man
Heck YES Tom!!! There's nothing more enjoyable than seeing these "purists" let loose their bowels in their Depends whenever they see this at the Ford Nationals or any other Mustang show!!!
Those same people only want to see 'the same 57 Belairs, '65 Mustangs, '32 Fords, and C5 Corvettes at every car show since 2003 while listening to nonstop 50s music as the CD "skips" become more frequent.
I agree. But i hope they dont ban him. He may have to hide the fact its a honda
It's crazy that in the spirit of hot rodding and these people lose their minds over something way cooler and actually unique.
@@CHET_CHADDINGTON right? i cant wait to see his build all done. its gonna piss em off when they see a fastback that gaps every performance optioned mustang
@@AMCguy I mean, there are plenty of V8 stangs that will whoop this ones ass. It’s just cool to see such an old car that would have taken 50k to make “good as new” again, or less than half that on something actually unique
@@zackatron925 it depends on the race, these hondas are a force to be reckoned with. any factory v8 mustang from the 60s, 70s, 80s will probably not beat this one.
I live in Fair Hill and I work at UD. I see you out ripping around in your stuff every now and then and I dig all of them. F the haters, Masutangu is badass. Give a wave if you see me in one of my jalopies! (white 89 Mustang GT on '95 Cobra Rs or a black and white 55 Chevy with a thunderbolt teardrop hood on torq thrust ds).
IMO I feel like the open back end with a homemade diffuser woulda been cool AF on the back end of MasuTangu. (Also I might draw MasuTangu in the future.
Tom I must admit I respect what you are doing. I am a classic ford collector and restorer. What you are doing would be considered blasphemy within my community, but people have to understand that this is a generational repetitive act. When I was growing up we modified our cars, and those before us said the same things to us that are being said to you now.
Do I like what you did to one of my beloved cars…..no, but that doesn’t mean I can’t respect it. Cars are a form of expression, and you are transforming this car into your voice. That’s something up I can always appreciate.
Take care, and keep doing what makes you happy, but most of all….INSPIRED!
I grew up on classic mustangs my step dad looked at me sideways when I went to work for Honda🥺 35 years later I think I know now what to do with those 66 mustang body's and all the Honda stuff I've got sitting around 🤪 man you built some pretty cool stuff love your energy!!!!
Best car channel…best provocation “car channel” ever
Art of the deal, excellently executed
As a Civic and '66 Mustang owner, this is pretty damn cool.
Yeah this is probably the best thing i've seen in years! thanks for the vids!!!!
I don't like Hondas or Mustangs but I love this.
You’re on the recommended page. Congrats. First time watching and I love it!
Finally the new channel I been looking ..no..needing in my life , it's been hard finding something to drown out my wife's voice but this ...this will do just fine.
I hate that that I don't hate it. I like Mustang's and I don't like Honda's but put them together and it's kinda cool, and the sound puts a big smile on my face every time you launch it hard!
I hope it stays on RUclips, but Tom’s gonna end up with his own show. Do it, man!!! FTW!!!
Bruh toms refurb is hands down the most underrated car content channel out there, dude is extremely entertaining and chill to watch. Keep it up Tom!
You helped to get 3 other mustangs on the road with those parts so actually you did a favor to mustang community
Dude this car is the nicest car I have seen in a very long time original and way outside the box in a great way keep it up forget the haters.
I cannot wait for that conversion video xD Awesome as always!!!
I'm usually a purest when it comes to cars but I love seeing how different people express themselves with their cars and when you go to shows you'll see tons of nice original restored cars so something different is always cooler.
as a import owner i fully support this this is a custom build if ppl arent hating you aint doing to enough
This channel is going to be huge. Well deserved
Awesome built!
These reactions on the car meet... Priceless!!! 😂😂😂
Gonna check out your other videos, thumb up! 😋
I’ll just be happy to see this thing all in one color. 🤙🏻
Im a Chevy and Honda lover and this build is totally awesome. You have a great talent and with that comes haters 💪 good work
Offend everyone and do your thing! Carry on young man!
Man, I watched the first 25 seconds about 30 times...laughing my ass off the entire time!
Can’t wait till Tom hits a million subs
Can't believe I haven't seen your channel sooner. You're fuckin funny and the mustang fucks hard. You're killing it
Bro that is sick 👍 imagine if you went all wheel drive with that pony Honda it will be untamed and faster than flash
first video ive seen on this channel, instant sub, cant wait to see the rest of the build
The algorithm has blessed you.
This dude is like a cheaper whistlin diesel and I love it
i am 70 years old and i think this Musonda is wicked cool , and for all those haters get over yourself because hot rodding is meant to be fun and this young man is having fun !! and this Honda Mustang is the definition of hot rodding
That ending is probably the sickest outro I’ve probably have seen ever
Tom I love it. Keep the Frenkenstien Fastback going. Keep building 💪💯
This is sick, love this new genre of car videos
To be honest, That looks sick, I'd be driving that think as a daily.
Soo Glad I found this channel!!
I have been into bikes all my life and never really been into cars at all but I gotta say I just luuurve your work! Your fun attitude toward life is a breath of fresh polluted air.
Thanks Tom. Picked up one them stickers out Carlisle, was putting people on to your RUclips channel. Love the content
This is amazing bro, I hope you reach over a million subs real soon, also will you be getting an interior for the Masutangu?
I love it !!!
I put a very clean 67 ford f250 on a 84 chevy c10 with a straight 6 and a 700 r
Bing bang boom I’ve got power breaks and steering and get 24 mpg and all the hater’s can say after they ride in it is thats cool 😎 it’s my wife’s Daley driver LOL
That outro was amazing. Thank you
its like whistlin diesel and Puddins Fab shop had a baby... I dig it. Keep your creative style going.
2:12 Pov: Your dash lit up like a Christmas tree after you turned your car on 😂😂
I'm so glad this popped up in my recommended.
This is the best mechanic youtube channel on god
Great content my man, so chill to watch
Man I build Honda’s myself and this is one of the most badass builds I’ve seen so far clean bro
This is gonna be so sick!! Can’t wait to see what’s next
This is ingenuity at its finest 🤣😂👏👏👏
I remember car shows when I was like 10, the cars were cool for the first two years, but then, they all started looking the same, restored, slight non-offensive mods. I started gravitating towards the low riders, the chops, the rat-rods and the JDM guys who you'd find alone away from the old guys and their stories of years gone by. That Stang is the most beautifully offensive pile of rust and gasoline I've ever seen. I hope you install la cucaracha air horns in it to amplify the disgust of the purists. Rev on my guy rev on.
Best build on youtube. I love it man.
The car wash part, hillarious!!🤣🤣🤣🤣👍
I've never seen so much comedic talent in such a rough form
