Default Need an artist and a genius for $$$$

I am looking for both an artist and a genius. I have a propostion. Be aware that my knowledge of working on cars is minimal, but that my imagination and wallet keep me more than satisfied. I need someone to put me in contact with a company or person who can create my dream. I want to take a mint 1966 GT convertible and attach it to the frame and technology of a 2003 Mustang. The reason behind this adventure is that my wife's favorite car is the 66 GT, but she wouldn't feel safe with the children without the technology and safety that comes with the latest model cars. I realize that this is a massive undertaking. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

I'm pretty sure it's a different frame size/shape-wise. I doubt you could fit the body of a classic onto the frame of a new stang without modifying the classic body a lot. I THINK!
Although that would be kick ***!

I think I found an article that could help you. The founder of Mustang Monthly magazine had one of his cars featured a few years ago. It is a 65 Mustang convertable with all a modern 4.6 drivetrain and lots of mods that make the car a great daily driver. since I have no clue how to post a link to the article I will tell you hao to get to it. Go to mustangmonthly.com and click on search. select featured vehicles, then Ford, then mustang, then 1965. the first car in the list of articles it comes up with is the one you need to look at. There is a list of refrences at the bottom of the article. Call a few of these places an tell them what you want. They can probably help you out. If you have any problems finding the article tell me and I will try and figure out how to post a link.

One of my current projects is putting a 55 packard clipper 2 door onto a 91 Town car sans air bags and seatbelts but the chassis driveline etc will all be 91 town car. I was going to mount the packard righht to the TC frame but decided that cutting the body off the wrecked TC and using it's floor pans. So I would think thats someone should be able to graft the 66 onto the newer chasis I would reccomend going with a late model seat belt set up swap in the air bad colum and sensors and the ABS stuff and call it done. Although I would trust the 66 in an accident over the 2003. Seeing how most new cars are designed to crumple into you. And are mostly plastic. Where the 66 uses some actuall metal. And as I recall there is a company that builds a "kit" type 66-68 stang on the SN95 body you get everything in the sn with a bolt and bond on kit that makes it look 60's
