Does anyone know where I can find a front clip from a 67 or 68 mustang? The fenders and hood are not a must, but the cowl, frame rails, inner fenders, torque boxes, and fire wall are a must. I live near Houston so I would rather not have to drive out of state to check something out. Thanks guys

excuse my ignorance, but are you looking for a shell, or just the front part of the car.......? here is a site that you can buy just about everything you need to restore a 67-68 mustang......... http://www.mustangdepot.com/OnLineCatalog/SheetMetal/sheet_metal.htm

I realize everything could be bought new. I don't know if you realize the amount of work/difficulty buying everything new then trying to tack weld everything together and expect fenders and hood to line up. I am looking for just the whole front half, I can care less how bad everything else looks. Motor, trans, axle, interior mean nothing to me. Thanks for the reply.
