“My husband and I are building this ’65 Mustang together. We started with a car that had been left sitting in a shed in Tassie for 19 years.

“After being imported from California and having the firewall cut out, it had sat for a while before changing hands a few times. It eventually found a stable home with us.

“We’ve finished off the RHD conversion, added a fresh Windsor V8 and T5 transmission combo, and treated the car to a full rewire front to back. We also added a Shelby bonnet and valance, and I painted it myself in BF Falcon Ego, with the stripes painted in colour-shifting BF Falcon Fantasy.

“It’s sitting on Simmons B45s. The build has taken five years so far, with just a few finishing touches left to complete.”
