1966 Ford Mustang

Recently Fix Motorsport’s owner Paul Fix started on this 1966 Ford Mustang project with his daughter, Shelby Fix. Disassembling every nut and bolt, Shelby started the process with intentions to build a show car to be driven. Over breaks in her schedule at Marist College, Shelby would help assemble the car after it came back from the paint shop. The goal was to finish in time for her college graduation in May 2014. It was finished a few months early and just in time for The Calvalcade of Cars, Classic and Custom Car Show in Buffalo NY. Shelby’s car won Outstanding Modified Classic. It was than shown at the Mustang 50th Birthday Celebration in Charlotte, NC on April 17th, 2014.

The 1966 Ford Mustang’s life started in 1966 at the San Jose, CA assembly plant, and was delivered to Sunrise Ford in Fontana, CA. It lived there with it’s original owner until 2009. Needless to say it was a virgin body without any rust or needing any body repair.

Paul Fix has restored over 55 Mustangs, always striving for authenticity, but this time Shelby was making the decisions on how it would be built and she wanted to do something different. So it was modified with a bit of pro touring suspension for ride and handling. Then mixing in a few of the best ‘65 parts for better looks.
