Great68's 1968 Mustang Coupe
I moved to the island in June of '07. In case you don't know me from the Vancouver forums, here's some pictures of my car. You may see me around.
Here's what my car looked like in 1999 when I first got it:
After about 3 years, stripping the car down, replacing a bunch of structural metal, floor pans, patching, putting in new carpets, upholstery, paint, motor work, suspension, etc, ... All the stuff that goes into a good restoration it looks like this:
Too many mods to list, and they won't be the last. Plans this year are to get rid of the crummy automatic and swap in a stick. Plans next year are to rebuilt the bottom end to a 331 stroker.

I live in Victoria, but I keep the car at my relatives' place in Cowichan Bay since they have a garage.
I bring it down to Victoria from time to time, but the rural roads out there are way more fun to drive.
