Marcus Edell here from Fremont,Ca about 10 miles away from the old "San Jose" Plant actually located in Milpitas,Ca now a Mall.I'm 34 years young and my first car was a 64 1/2 COupe which wrapped around a tree and then a 65 Convertible C Code,since then I have owned literally over 2 dozen Mustangs alone,I'm more of an early Hot Rod and Kustom guy,but I keep finding some cool Mustangs.One of them was a 1964 1/2 Indy Pace Car that was sitting in a field in San Jose,Ca about three years ago.I paid $950 for it! The Latest discovery was a K Code Coupe that someone threw a 6 cylinder and three speed tranny in! It Still has a working 8,000 RPM Rally-Pac in it!So this one is the latest endeavor.I'm sure you will here alot from me!! Especially on the Wanted Parts section...

Welcome, looks like a nice project. It's strange to see a hipo with a 6cyl. Normaly I see 6cyl cars with hipo badges.

Welcome, Marcus. Unfortunately, Metuchen was also dealt a similar fate, and DAP is no longer building Mustangs. Sadly, all three of the original Mustang assembly plants are retired.

Here's hoping you can bring the car back to its' original condition.

Marcus,
Welcome to the Hipo eKschange!!
I may be mistaken but I believe I bought a car from you earlier in the year. It was a '66 Dk. Blue GT350R Coupe replica that was numbered and lettered up. You shipped it to me here in Charlotte, NC.
Drop me a line some time and let me know how you're doing.
Happy Holidays,
Mark Young

Hey I wrapped my 1st Mustang around a tree too!
65 (real) GT Fastback A-code. 1 week to the hour of my 16th birthday. Owned it for 2 years, working on it and getting it ready, totalled it in a week. Still haven't lived it down either 20+ years later.
WELCOME!

Yikes, I wrapped my first car (a 65 Coupe) around a tree too
