"There's my sad little 'Stang", that's how most of us feel about our cars. The reality is always short of our ideas and vision, just don't forget what a great car that thing is. One of my top fave youtube cars
@@smtbigelow I've always been a Chevy guy and preferred Camaros, but the early Mustangs entire design is a lot more defined and detailed. There's really no other car quite like it from that period.
@@drownthepoor Yeah, Ive got a long family history of working for chevy dealers in So Cal, all of my uncles including me thats six,have been GM dealer employees, I cant see myself owning anything else. That being said I will and it would be a disservice to all classics to not recognize all of them from GM, FORD,and DODGE!
@@smtbigelow I come from a family with a lot of drag racers, including my father. Him and most of his friends have Chevy's. He has a 71 Nova that he got when he was 15. My first car was my mom's 96 Firebird and then I had a couple of Cobalts. Ironically, I currently drive a Ford Focus hatchback and my father drives an F-350 lol. I think Ford's interior quality is better, but they need to paint the undersides of their trucks because they rust.
The neck slapping was classic! Your stang is really cool and you get to drive the heck out of it and enjoy it vs sitting in the garage like most 65 mustangs.
Very cool that they (Wilwood) are recognizing a young man like yourself. Still kinda like your car better. Save up some $$ for that front suspension. Keep the fire burning, Ben.
Great video! Im 49 and my pops got me into classic muscle. So happy to see a young Jedi keep the love alive. Because of you, Im gonna get myself a '66 or '68 for next summer. Keeps these vids coning.
Mate, your stang' sounds great. My first fun daily driver car was an XB Falcon. I was 23, and my wife told me to go out and buy something economical, but I happened to see a burnt orange XB Falcon on the side of the road with a for sale sign on it. With a 351 cleveland it was hardly economical, but hellacious quick, and her reaction to seeing the angry beast in the driveway for the first time was truly something to behold. After a few years of driving it, she blubbed like a baby when I finally sold the old beast. There's another one in the garage now, and a mk1 Escort RS2000. You can piss away thousands on cars, but don't let anyone discourage you. The fun factor more than makes up for it.
I went to high school with William Wood's younger brother (class of '87). Our school was in Encino, and my friend used to drive up to Camarillo a few days a week after school to work at the shop. I was not clear on his brother's company's name. It wasn't until I bumped into my friend at CSUN every so often that he explained his brother founded Wilwood Brakes as I was a subscriber to Hot Rod Magazine. Duh...it took a few years, but I realized the connection.
Great video! The smile on your face says it all! That Wilwood car is sick. I love yours too. Just a little tip,when torquing your wheels, its much easier to push down than to pull up.keep up the good work my man
great video! first, always buy Dad the best tools you can afford...they will be yours someday. Second, tightening up the box can make a huge difference in feel on old cars. I did it after I replaced the tie rod ends and ball joints and wheel bearings...I thought I had a racecar compared to how bad it was.
The Wilwood workhorse is obviously a wicked beast, but honestly, your dark green machine sitting next to it has so much more raw appeal. Looks wise, your car wins hands down for me 👍🏻🔥🔥🔥 Top job dude
The wildwood mustang is awesome,but as you said:100k.yours is more old-school hotrod and that is the important thing!too,you will have more sensations slower through less grip and that's fine 👍👍👍🤘
@@FourSpeedFilms You're welcome and thanks for your videos, they're down to earth and you're a natural :D It makes me want to get a Coupe instead of a Fastback now haha. Cheers from France !
love this car. its extremely similar to my 68 build. same tci suspension and wilwood brakes/pedal setup. soon to be corbeau seats. no coyote yet, but hopefully a t56 soon.
I did the same for a ‘66. My only regret (poor me) was not doing a stroker short deck SBF. I have a Gen III Coyote, that just doesn’t quite do it for me. I have always done SBFs, and I think they sound better and have a more to my liking powerband.
The 'Wildwood-Coyote' is Amazing! But I'm an Average 'Joe'..with 'Limited Funds'!...i Have more RESPECT for your 'Stang' Ben! Cheers....My '71 Nova...will Be On the Same 'Line' as Yours!! Old School..( no FLASHY PAINT! )....& Paid with my Hard Cold..'Blue Collar CASH!..lol! Cheers from Canada!
Get some cutouts for the exhaust! I like my car at two extremes, one is “silent mode” where you literally can’t hear the car running (better than stock exhaust) and one is literally open header no cat lol
I've admired the Wilwood Mustang a few times at local shows and when it used to come out to Camarillo autocross. Great car. I need to get out that direction. Also shout-out to waking the neighbors for early morning departures. In college I had a 4am shift and I drove my Nova every day with 2 chamber Flowmasters. It shook the windows. Without a choke, the car had to warm up a bit before I could put it in gear so it was not only loud but also took a few minutes. One of the neighbors thought it was a different hotrod and chewed out a different neighbor over it. From that point forward I rolled the car down the street a little ways from most of the other houses before I started it. What canyon were you driving in this video?
did you check the grease in the steering box? it is very important because they go dry after 50+ years, most unchecked thing I have seen including rear gear oil in these old Mustangs
The Wilwood Mustang is a bad ass car and I'm sure it performs amazingly but I still like yours better! Especially the wheel and tire combo you are running. Please don't go to clown shoe big wheels! LOL I have a ZL1 Camaro with a TR6060 trans and it has the same second gear synchro issue. I guess it's pretty common.
A stock Coyote is plenty of usable power just port polish heads aluminum drive shaft lightweight flywheel, headers exhaust and there you go a factory racer.
The Wilwood Mustang is bad a## for sure. But I like yours better! The old school vibe makes it complete! Word of warning though! Don't go crazy trying to get all the play out if your steering box that way. Over tightening will lead to excessive wear and potential failure. Breaking or locking up the steering!
Deduct two points for the second gear failure on the restomod 6 speed tremec rig , the old 4 speed toploader prevails.... Apparently a common issue on the T56, needs a new synchro hub ring worn out, someone must have a better one out there......
Don't get me wrong, I love the sound of headers, cams, etc., but don't drive through the city of Whittier. They actually have street warning boards about modified exhausts.
Awesome video! Quick question for you or for Kevin/Reggie on the Wilwood Disc Brake Mustang. When it comes to deleting the chrome and making it black, is the trim powder coated or painted black? I'm debating doing this on my 67, but the only trim parts I'm seeing that might be an issue are the rain guard section and the handles/key lock? Any suggestions?

That’s crazy haha
That sound never gets old! Awesome car!
I remember this from Autopia LA. Very beautiful car ❤️
Cool man
Your Mustang is not little and sad, it is the perfect incarnation of what franck bullitt could have afforded in real life, and it looks badass

Really love my Wilwood remote master cylinder kit in my 50 Chevy coupe. The quality is so top notch.
Cool!
Thats amazing! I wish I had a Coyote in my car. one day! maybe! lol
Looks like you'll be upgrading to some TCI goodies soon. LOL They're local would be worth it to swing by and take a look.
That would be cool but I am broke lol
Great video as always!
I agree with the other comments. I like your Mustang better!
Thanks haha

Runnin' with the devil.....🔥 P.S.....I like your Mustang more.
Funny, I’ve always been debating a coyote swap, want an OG car but the comfort of a modern engine :/
A stroked 302 to 331 to 347 inches with a set of AFR heads and a hydraulic roller cam is a good combo. I
Serious speed
Love both of the mustangs man
Thanks Steven!

Probably never

@@FourSpeedFilms Spray paint it is then lol. Thanks!
Hi,
our trim is painted satin black.
Don’t feel bad about your car. Just tell you neighbors it identifies as a quiet car.
My car identifies as a helicopter lol
Well when you do yours make sure you put a roll cage in it okay bud
I'm down
Wilwood, scrap the Mt 82 junk get a Tremec.
Lol could have done a twin turbo ls swap for the price of the coyote 🤣
All that engine and no Donuts this isnt a mustang lol. Cool car still and hats off to the mechanics....
Awesome!
Thanks!
