After being in the same location for a long time, the shop has decided not to renew their lease and will instead, be relocating to a newer facility over the next 3 months. This means that all owners need to remove their cars from the property during the transition. As a result, the crew has rolled the ’65 up into the shop’s trailer to protect it while it awaits its return trip home to Mass.

Another photo in the trailer of the driver’s side.
I got lucky and was able to find a NOS Carlite shaded windshield.

Hooray, the Mustang came back from the shop this morning!
We were able to drive the truck and trailer inside the warehouse and roll her out inside where it’s nice and warm.

Due to winter already being here in The Berkshires, the Mustang now gets covered up to wait it out until spring in a heated facility.

It couldn’t have turned out any “NICER”, razor straight, perfect fits!!! You gotta be one ‘HAPPY CAMPER’ so far, I’m sure!!! 😮 😀 …Pete.

Thanks!

It will sit there through the winter and I will pick up with it at home in the spring.
Still have a few items that need interior paint, replating, or polishing I can do in the meantime.

Currently my shop is tied up with a couple of tractors.
I’ve got an Oliver Super 55 split for seals and a clutch on one side and a Ford 950 Getting front axle and steering gear work on the other.
