Mensan Posted October 29, 2011 Report Share Posted October 29, 2011 http://autos.yahoo.com/news/ford-reintroduces-the-1965-mustang.HTML Any thoughts? Will this lower the value of the older cars at all? Is this exciting since you can Build the whole car from the ground up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTQ B4U Posted October 29, 2011 Report Share Posted October 29, 2011 would rather put $15k towards something besides just a metal shell. just me perhaps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is exciting because you can now get something build without trying to find several parts cars or a solid no rust car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nickey4271647545519 Posted October 29, 2011 Report Share Posted October 29, 2011 Dynacorn has been popping out new bodies for quite awhile now. They are making a quality product from what I've heard. I doubt it's going to lower values of the older muscle. The concept of being able to build a whole car with aftermarket stuff isn't something new. Goodmark is even offering 67-69 camaro bodies (where dynacorn started as well) that are even including a vin number. http://www.goodmarkindustries.com/roller.cfm no fastback no care http://www.dynacornclassicbodies.com/images/67FBCollage.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckeye1647545503 Posted October 29, 2011 Report Share Posted October 29, 2011 (edited) Unless you do the repair yourself 15k does go far in a body shop to fix rust with new panels and repaint. I used dynacorn in my 68 and the fit was dead in and the thickness was a perfect match unlike the no name crap out there.

2011SVT Posted October 29, 2011 Report Share Posted October 29, 2011 Agent47 offers a fully finished roller called the Harbinger which is based on a '69 Dynacorn body: http://www.agentfortyseven.com/harbinger/harbinger_maintop_update2.jpg little pricey considering you are almost $70k in before adding the driveline but it looks like a lot of fun.

Buckeye1647545503 Posted October 30, 2011 Report Share Posted October 30, 2011 I Tried to buy the Agent 47 front suspension for my cougar but they were taking to long..... Then I slowed down progress and now it is still not done. But the sell nice stuff and that Harbinger is 99% custom parts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Needless to say I would be sending only a very very small deposit I noticed most of their website has not been updated since 2009. Not a good sign generally. I had their mirrors on my '07 GT. Very slick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckeye1647545503 Posted October 30, 2011 Report Share Posted October 30, 2011 Not sure but the entire car was at sema like three years ago and even after they showed it at sema and it appeared in a mustang mag parts were still not avail yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2loNslo Posted October 31, 2011 Report Share Posted October 31, 2011 This should make the original cars go up in price. I dont see these really making it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avenger1647545502 Posted October 31, 2011 Report Share Posted October 31, 2011 They aren't an EXACT reproduction...there are some minor differences in things like brace panel shaping and weld/seam locations, which are both improvements on the original design and a way to identify the shell as a repro part. I'm not sure how they go about attaching a new VIN to those Harbinger cars...probably titled as a specialty or kit car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
