Hi there

I live in the UK and I am wanting to buy and restore an early Mustang (66,67 etc) So this is me starting my research and I am wanting to know how to select a car for restoration? What problems I might encounter? Any usefull tips that anyone might have too.

Cheers

Fe

First off, you will need to decide how much effort you want to put into restoring. Do you want a car that only needs paint and put together? Are you willing to dismantle and re-assemble the whole thing? Do you have access to a paint/body place that has a rotisserie? Complete restores are best done when you can have full access to every nook/cranny of the vehicle.

If you know the specific model you are looking for, check out www.traderonline.com for the classic/antique cars for sale. You can find rolling chasis' with & without motors/drivetrains. All depends on how much you want to spend.
