65 Fairlane pro-touring build

I'm kicking off a new build with a nice little 65 Fairlane 2dr HT as a starter. I'll be posting updates from time to time when I have something worthwhile to mention.

Currently, the plan calls for a 5.0 Coyote engine and T56 six speed manual transmission. Due to the tight engine bay, a TCI front suspension will be necessary to eliminate the shock towers. I'll probably do a Control Freak triangulated four-link or something similar out back. Big brakes, lowered stance, custom interior. digital instrument cluster, a/c and very few exterior mods other than stripping paint and changing color round out my wish list.

Stick around if you find this sort of thing interesting. And I'm always open to suggestions as the build progresses.

Here's a video link to a walk around.
