Ford (http://www.autoblog.com/ford) has officially added another model to the company's licensed reproduction steel body shells. Those looking to spin their own wrenches toward restoring a 1964 1/2, 1965 or 1966 Mustang Convertible (http://www.autoblog.com/ford/mustang) can snap up a brand-new body from Dynacorn that uses higher-quality steel and more modern welding techniques than the originals. Even better, every last inch of the piece comes rustproofed straight from the factory. That means you can save the pennies and time you would have blown on cutting out cancer (rust and rot) and welding in new pieces and put both toward designing the perfect 289 for your build.

Ford and Dynacorn plan to show off the reproduction 1965 Mustang Convertible body shell at this year's SEMA (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/sema) show. If you like what you see, the two companies will be happy to send one your way for the reasonable sum of $15,000.

As you may recall, Dynacorn produces a number of body panels for a wide range of classic vehicles, including a complete 1969 Ford Mustang body shell.

Hmmm... That's only about 10-15K short of a restored complete REAL one.

Exactly! And in today's economy, you can buy a nice driver for under $15K. Obviously, you won't get a nut-n-bolt restoration for that, but if you just want a fun driver, heck, here's one for $9K.

Does 'sorta fit' make classic car bumpers too? :think:
