I would not gain anything by swapping it to the sn95 platform though, i did buy a 95 cobra in thoughts of that but it’s a bit out dated. The last one we did on the 2012 went great so thought I’d do it on a 13 this time which is basically the same car, did you do any videos of your swap, always enjoy seeing others masterpieces

Seems to me you would cut the 67 body down the center of the roof and weld each side to the 2013 then patch a strip down the middle, but you'll need custom front and rear glass. But it's doable and would preserve the interior.
@1194video
8 ай бұрын
I will still be able to utilize the interior just takes modifying the door panels. The easiest way to do it is to just skin the sides but then you have to keep he original roof line so it looks a little weird, my reasoning behind not modifying the original 67 shell is so that in any accident the body panels can be replaced with oe parts

Chargers are hard tops and flex a lot if you don't reinforce the rockers.

Man I had to persist with this video like button to get it to actually accept my press without it becoming a double press where it was unliked (not dislike). SO I figured I'd also add a comment for algorithmmm purposes. I love what you are doing with this since its essence is make it work where it might appear challenging! I think it's just great to have the video to accompany the application for a register of motor vehicles. That way they can rest assured you have NOT converted the car and it's not possible to be a stolen car. Sometimes the hoop jumping exercises get applied until failure. I see you having all that is required to succeed with the bureau. Looking Good!

The 1967 mustang is a very flimsy car, even with frame connectors it’s very weak, if you cut the body off a 67 the flat will fold by a new model you can drive with no body without any weakness of the floor, I want my cars to be safe, a 1967 is not safe. That’s why i went this route, I have an older build on the channel using the floor of a 2012 and it helped in strength but not s a huge amount of extra work

It’s a lot pre work. Then you have to make Pilar’s very thick to accommodate the glass, and if the car gets into an accident the replacement parts have to be custom vs this way it can be the same as a stock 67-68 mustang
