      I want to give my 95 Gt to my nephew, but my sister knows the work I put into it, and it's quite the track animal. She has made me promise that I would not give my weekend track and drag car to my nephew. I feel like the biggest hypocrite remembering all the fun I had driving it at his age. All it does now is sit in my garage.

    Nice buy and I am not even big on Fords! You scored big time! I really like those mustangs. GIVE THE MUSTANG TO THE KID! He dropped everything for that car, came out, and offered to help without being told to! You can fix it up together, so when he starts driving he has something he built with his own hands and can appreciate it a lot more! Just have to teach him to respect the power and not race it around on the street! Take care and God bless! David

      Same thing here in British Columbia, Canada. Graduated license with an L on the car for Learner to start and only with a licensed driver over a certain age. Then after a period of time you can drive at night or with passengers so long as you have a licensed driver over a certain age. If you caught drinking or racing ect your license dreams are on hold for a very long time. You buy your auto insurance from a private seller but the province provides the insurance. They also control the police, make the laws ect so their control is mighty tight.

    That is a really great starter car for Nick. Dirt, dirt simple. Uncomplicated. Include him in all of the diagnostics and repairs and upgrades. Get his input on the new paint color and pattern. I'm seeing black with a silver stripe down the side from taillight to headlight and body line to body line. Fix up all those plastic components and shifter boot. Fix the hood latch, that's No. 1. Get a fuse box cover before you power wash the engine bay. Power wash the edges of the door and the door jam, the underside of the trunk lid and that grody trunk gutter. Weld up that hole in the trunk floor. Redo the tint. That might find that the window seals on the passenger's door have permanently etched the exterior of that glass and it should be replaced.
    Yeah. You got a great little runabout and when he turns 16, Nick's got a cool car to step into immediately, and one he's been intimately involved in every step of the rehab of.

    Biggest problem with humans of Nick's age is the absence of a RANDY to 'mentor' them (as you have shown). Best thing to do with Nick is EXPLOIT him and be there to catch him if he were to fall. Make a list of everything he did to his brain while messing with this car. You've helped him tremendously to open new avenues of 'how to think & do'. You both got a hell of a lot more than a clean car. Congratulations to both of you. And he'll never wonder if he'll get a car with all the ones you come into. I'm jealous of what you men have done!

    As far as the ride height in the front goes... Ford thought it would be a good idea to put these SN95s on stilts; makes for a huuuuge gap in the fender wells. Speaking of traction control, I don't think that was a thing in Mustangs until at least '01. I have a 2000 convertible and it doesn't have it, either. I think these cars are fun for just that reason, and the aftermarket scene for the 4.6l 2V is insanely robust. I'll be looking forward to more videos on this, and enjoy that SN95!

    Perfect candidate for a GT-H clone. Black with 2 fat Hertz yellow stripes. Old school Cragar S&S 5 spokes and a loud, honking exhaust. What a score!!

    I agree with others commenting , Nick has shown his first spark of interest,
    it would kill him to not fix that car up for him as a first car for him to learn in and inspire his love for mechanics
    , I struggle with the kids and there iPads pods whatever there into ,
    don’t tell him though keep it a secret and then surprise him when you go to sell it tell him you already found an owner 😂 , love your work Randy 🙏

    After serving in the Navy I bought a white '97' mustang with cash and used it through college. This brings back so many memories. Mine was an automatic V6 and the interior was the brown on black but close enough.

    that stang in a Maaco dark blue or a midnight purple would look sick with some nice wheels and lowering springs

    My first brand new Stang was a ‘94 with that body design, couldn’t afford the v8. Have a ‘14 GT vert in SGM today with Eibach 2” sport lowering springs, rough ride FYI. I think your son needs to pick the color but that’s just me:). Got my 19 yr old daughter an ‘07 v6 premium vert in black with red leather interior. She is now a Mustang lover for life as is your son seeing his reaction. Can’t wait to see the next vid on this one!

    Plum crazy purple with sterling gray stripes would look good on that GT.

    I subscribed to your channel for videos like this. I enjoy these type where you bid, win, take them for drives to figure them out. The unknown is what makes the video for me. Copart walk-arounds get a bit stale, but getting the car and doing start to finish are the best IMHO.

  • @jamesclark5461

    Chrisfix called, he wants that cheap Mustang! 😂 It's nice to see your son starting to grow interest in fixing cars, I originally played games until my dad came home with a project truck. Man, working on that truck was fun than playing video games!

    • @Joshtheweatherman
      @Joshtheweatherman 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      And since it's the 4.6, with some p71 interceptor modifications, you can make it a lot more powerful than a stock 5.0. I think after your done, you should take it to Weird Beard's, and just park it there and surprise your son with the car on Christmas day 😄 He absolutely adores that car!

    love this. not my fav body style but its still a great find. looking forward to seeing it come back to life. Suggestion for you. seems Nick has taken a liking to this car. would be a good surprise to gift it to him after you restore it. would be a great first car for him. paint it metallic deep blue or let Nick pick the color.
