I've had this 1965 Mustang convertible for years and robbed parts off it that weren't available at the time. At one time I thought about making it a fastback but that would be expensive. The engine compartment looks to be solid.

I saw a Ford concept photo of a shortened 2 seat 1965 fastback and thought about building this it into a roadster. I told one of my customers and he came up with these drawings. I like it now we need to find the time to build it. It will be a Mustang roadster instead of a Cobra roadster. What do you think should we build it?

Yes, absolutely! The drawings are a bit different proportions right? Are the 1st and 3rd the same just different angles because that's my fav :)
 
Rusty, Could you scale down the original top for a removable top? I would hate to have a nice car I was afraid to take out because there was a 40% chance of rain.

I like the idea of the roadster. I'm not a fan of the shorter wheelbase though. The work you and Brian do has always impressed me.
