That roll on primer is interesting. I hope it works out. Back in the 90s I was in engineering school. I won a $1000 Chrysler essay scholarship that asked what was the one thing I would change on my favorite car. I said I would add 3 point seat belts to my 68 Mustang. Cool to see you make that safety enhancement.
I just binge watched all your videos in two days. Well done, sir. 👏 You’ve completely triggered my hyper fixation. A classic mustang will be mine. 😈 Knowing what you know now, what would be your best advice when buying a classic Mustang?
Thank you so much for watching all of my videos! I really appreciate the support! When I do it again, I think buying a running and driving project is the way to go. All of the aesthetic stuff is the easy part, it's the mechanical that's really tough. So if you can find a solid car that's running and driving for a decent price, that would be the way to go. You just have to make sure that it has good bones/structurally sound. Also if you're just wanting a weekend cruiser and don't care that much about performance, then maybe look for a 6 cylinder, b/c they tend to be a little cheaper and those motors are built like a tank.
@@VanHoutenBuilds great advice. I imagine it’d be fun to drive the thing around while taking your time on the cosmetic stuff. I’ve been shocked you haven’t taken yours out yet in the videos. You’ve been sneaking joy rides these last few weeks, right? Anyway, great job on the channel, man. You’ve got the perfect balance of narration and interesting footage. I was genuinely bummed when I discovered this restore is happening right now and I finished all the vids. Please keep it up. You’ll wreck me if you don’t keep posting!
@@cjforse22 I wish I was sneaking joyrides haha. Soon, soon! Yeah I'm definitely still filming more videos for it right now, had to take a week off b/c I hurt my neck, but I'm on the mend, so I'll be dropping another video soon!
Awesome man! Splotching on right side of your hood is likely due to some sort of oil or wax based on the way it reacted around those spots. You can sand the primer after a few days and then hit it really good with a paint prep that removes oil/wax. Oreilly's has one a spray can that I've used that works pretty well. You're WAY ahead of me but I'm doing some primer and spray on a few parts. Look forward to more my friend!
Amazing video! Fantastic videography. I have thoroughly enjoyed watching that mustang's journey from start to where it is now. I can't believe how rough it was before and how beautiful it's turning out. True craftsmanship my man. You should have way way way more subscribers for this quality of content
I love your channel so much!! I have a 1990 Golf mk2 and it's great to maintain but this is so awesome to watch you make me love working on my car with what you're doing. Keep explaining what you're doing and I'll keep following your journey!
I'm so glad to hear that, thank you for sharing that with me! It also helps inspire me to keep working on things with comments like this. I really love the RUclips car community. Thanks for the support!
@@VanHoutenBuilds Nice! You are one of the reasons why I love this stuff since barely a year. I'm learning a lot and I love it. Thank you so much for the reply, it's great to see you keep up with the community you're building up!
couple of throw back questions (to previous videos) but easier to just ask here together then going back to each one. where did you get the vacuum extension you used to get in the cowl to clean it out? does it have a specific name? which radiator did you end up going with?
I got the vacuum extension from ACE hardware. It's a Milwaukee brand vacuum extension kit. I went with a 3 core Champion radiator www.championradiators.com/Ford-Mustang-V8-conversion-radiator-64-66
Hey so i just discovered your series, its really nice to see you rebuild your dream car, even though its a mustang🤪 (camaro fan here, lol) Greetings from Germany!
@@VanHoutenBuilds really? Over here in Germany everyone wants an old mustang, they are very expensive but Camaros on the other hand, you can pick them up very cheap
@@felixhofbauer3061 Woah that's crazy! Yeah camaro's drive a higher price here. You can find a firebird for a little cheaper. Mustang's are so plentiful here that the price is a bit lower, but they have been steadily going up in price lately.
Great job! Im actually curious about your filming set up. Are you using a phone, a dedicated camera, or even multiple cameras. That primer looks like it came out really good!
Thanks! Currently I'm just using a GoPro and that's it! I was previously using a Sony A6000 but that went down so I just switched to the go pro Hero 10. Bought it used on Ebay for pretty cheap.
It's motivational to see you slowly build a dream car from almost a scrap. Repect from Korea!
Glad you posted the seat belt installation! Need to order a set before we start putting the interior together.

We got a 1969 Oldsmobile 442 sitting and damn these videos make me wanna start restoring that thing!
I like your videos. Thanks man! I have a 65 mustang in similar shape as yours was. Your videos give me courage as its new for me. Im inspired. 😁

Love the videos from day1, all the way from Ireland. Looking forward for the next video!
Awesome, Thank you! I'm heading to Ireland in a month to visit for the first time, can't wait!
Safe travels! You’ll have such a great time
@@tonyoreilly5219 Thanks!
Awesome work! I love your videos, and waiting for the next. Greetings from Poland!
Thanks so much!
Cool video
looking good. Plan on the seat belt conversion in mine as well.

You are moving right along. Seat belts do not look very comfortable,
They're not, but it's a small price to pay for some life insurance haha
Oh no, why adding the seatbelts?
Although, you are the first RUclips Channel I subscribed and turned on the bell hah! Thx for the journey!
