Father's Day lands this weekend, and if you're anything like us, you're doing your best to put off trying to find a gift. Ford (http://www.autoblog.com/ford) has an idea for those of us too lazy to pull up dad's Amazon list and click purchase. The automaker says it takes roughly two years for a hobbyist to complete a classic vehicle restoration from the ground up over nights and weekends. That means that a project Mustang (http://www.autoblog.com/ford/mustang) started this summer will be ready just in time for the car's 50th anniversary in a couple of years.
How's that for clever? The company says roughly 95 percent of all Mustang parts are available brand new as reproductions right now through FordRestorationParts.com (https://www.fordrestorationparts.com/restoration/indexSEMA.jsp), including full body shells like the one seen above. Besides, what's your old man doing with his time now that he doesn't have to worry about you choking to death on your hand anymore? Check out the press release (http://www.mnfords.com/2012/06/16/ford-wants-you-to-give-the-gift-of-some-assembly-required-for/#continued) for more information.Continue reading Ford wants you to give the gift of "some assembly required" for Father's Day (http://www.autoblog.com/2012/06/16/ford-wants-you-to-give-the-gift-of-some-assembly-required-for/)
