[Frankenstang65]

The whole Frankenstang thing came up when I started tearing the car apart for restoration last summer. As I removed and stripped each of the major body panels I noticed that they were pretty much all original parts. The funny thing about it is that nearly all of them had been scavenged off a different mustang throughout my car's long and abused history. Though all original ford pieces, there is not a single major removable part on the outside of the car that had been on it when it left the factory. The fenders, doors, hood, trunklid, headlight buckects, etc all came from numerous donor cars. The entire powertrain is the same way, all mustang parts, just not from my mustang.
When I was discussing this with a friend he was like "geez man, your car is made up of like 15 other dead mustangs, it's like the frankenstien of the auto world". And so the name was quickly adapted to Frankenstang, and then to Frankenstang65 for message board purposes. And plus, with the 351 under the hood, it is a bit of a "monster" by stock 65 mustang standards. I think it fits.
