She’s a bit rough, but definitely worth saving. I bought a 66 coupe about 20 years ago for $1200. I gave it to my daughter as a graduation gift after getting it mechanically sound and having it painted a dark blue with silver stripes. She still has the car. One of her favorite things in life.

It’s pretty rough but you could always body swap it onto a new mustang or something with same wheelbase. You would actually save money not having to upgrade the suspension or brakes. Possibly the drive train as well

If the engine and transmission are good and original to the car, keep them with the car. Save up, get the sheet metal and save the car. GT package was available on all body styles. Also back then you could just about check the boxes and customize the car from the factory however you wanted. There were some limitations such as the GT wasn’t available with a 6 cylinder and you couldn’t mate up certain engines with certain transmissions but for the most part you could do what you wanted.

You may not be paying up front for it but you will definitely be paying for it in your time and labor, when you could otherwise be doing other things, and it’ll need lots of that- especially if the torque boxes are rotten. For labor of love that might not even matter though. Otherwise part her out, make back the $1000 plus a bit extra and put that toward one a bit more solid. Follow your heart.
