Hello all, just starting building my 65 coupe. My build is intended as a street legal racer, not a show car, definitely function over form. Historical authenticity Is not my thing either. With that said, here are the high points:

65 coupe IRS
LS3 crate motor hot cam version
FItech fuel injection
Texas Drivetrain lightweight flywheel and clutch
Tremec TKX
Ford Performance GT350R brakes

Just picked up kit last week and have started test assembling the main components to check for interference in fitments Etc.

A few pics:
