Mustang Rally Car Anyone

My wife was diagnosed with cancer about 5 years ago and has sense beaten it. While she was fighting she made me promise that I would work on cars with here on you tube. About a couple months ago she told me she wanted to try rally racing. (SCCA Rallycross) So what does a supportive husband like myself do? I bought her a 2006 Mustang... at least most of one.

It was totaled from the previous owner and we picked it up off of Copart. it was a front end collision so everything on the front was destroyed. As well as the window being open and interior soaked and full of mold.

Figure this would be a good place to check when we may have issues and document the build progress.

Congrats to the wife and good luck with the build

Let me know if you guys need any advice! We stage rally an S197!

Nice!

Lostbychoice, do you have a build thread anywhere?

I can't address the car but I can the cancer. My wife has had cancer twice and beat it both times. First time she was in her late 20's and then again around early 50's, she'll be 80 in four more days. I would think they have even better treatments today over what was available back then. Good luck to you both.
