One man and his Mustang – UK – I'm just a man with a Classic 1966 Ford Mustang Coupe and an ever increasing collection of car detailing products to keep it clean. I bought the car as a non rolling project in 2011 which had been neglected, set fire to, rusted and abused. As a result of all that the car needed a bare metal strip down, a nut and bolt restoration. Four and a half years later the car was completed, on the road and shown at the UK's premier Classic Car Show, everything that was done to my car is documented here. I now have the privilege to drive one of America's most recognised cars and a true Icon, the Ford Mustang.

Interesting, I was worried about the ammeter in my 66 Mustang. I made a conversion of my own, https://onemanandhismustang.com/ammeter-to-volt-meter-conversion/ it worked out well and looks stock too. It was a fair bit of work, but I’m much happier with a voltmeter now.
