    MASUTANGU IS DONE! At least for now... In this video, I tackle ALL of the finishing touches to get the car road worthy again, then we DRIVE IT! I'm so pleased with the turnout, I hope you are, too!
    "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!
    I love you all!

      Definetly possible. There are ton of awd swapped civics out there and you can get kits that have everything you need to use crv parts. Can't be as difficult as putting a Honda chassis under a mustang body.

    In the future, just use a good painters tape, lay it across the entire windshield into the area you want (be sure to overlap it and add vertical pieces) trim edges with a razor, then peel it up as one piece and lay that over the media that you will cut. Makes it accurate and clean.
