Hi everyone

Hi from sunny Basingstoke. I’ve just bought my first mustang. It’s a 66 289 coupe. It’s a project so will need some advice at some point I’m sure. Regards Simon

Welcome Simon, I’ve got a ‘65 289 Coupe that needs work. Great place here for advice. Ask away or read through the trawls of helpful posts already on here :)

Hi Lee thanks for the reply. It’s reassuring to hear that there are like minded souls out there.

Welcome to the forum Simon. I have a 66 and that needs some work, in fact I would go as far as saying that they ALL need work of one kind or another!
How much work does it need, is it driveable and roadworthy?

[Metalmoth]

Hi it needs a good going over to make sure it’s safe but it runs/drives/stops. It’s absolutely rock solid underneath as it’s been in California all it’s life. It’s going to be great. A 60s Mustang has always been my dream car

Hi are you a Basham ?

[sacredmatt]

Pardon my ignorance, what's a Basham? I live in Tadley.

Hi I’m ever so sorry, there was a chap at the thornycroft show in May who I was speaking to . He is ken Bashams son . I was trying to be clever and it did not work! You got any spares ? I need most things sadly
