Amphicar BUYER Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 Here is a pic I just found of a car we saved from a flood and then made into a Mustang/Ranchero in 1983. We moved the roofline forward enough to eliminate the rear 1/4 windows and then created a bed behind the seat from the truck and part of rear seat area. The interior was done in actual blue Jean material. I have since wondered where it might be at now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Bollman Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 Not sure if it was the same one, but a Muschero was listed on eBay back maybe a year ago same vintage and color as your picture. I was tempted because I was looking for a 66 Ranchero at the time and always liked the 65-66 Mustang. I figured it would be a great match.I resisted and bought a 66 Ranchero instead.

It was a quality job, no hack job at all.John Bevins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West Peterson Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 Your Mustang looks very professional looking. I'm impressed. I remember a first-series Mustang made into a station wagon back when they were new. Car & Driver (?), with David Davis as editor, did a cover story on it. Then, back in the mid 1990s, a bloke recreated the car and I featured it in Car Collector. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
