I Found an ABANDONED Mustang From The 60's To Detail!

What an INCREDIBLE transformation this Mustang made!! Hopefully the owner will have it roaring back to life someday soon! Stay tuned, next week’s video has a HUGE announcement!! 😎:_mike:

would love to see a full collab series with u and somebody where the vehicle goes from barn to u to mechanics, to body shop, back to you for final detail then to showroom. just to see a full on resto from barn to showroom/ cruising

Please do follow up videos on cars that will be getting fully restored so we can see the finished results 👍

Gosh, Mitch, this one takes me BACK. I am gonna go on for a minute or two, my apologies to those who dont like long posts. My dad had a 1969 Mustang Grande, very much like this one. The "Grande" package was "meant" to be a "luxury version" of the Mustang, but, at least in 69, was the version people said "hell, no, I want the Mach one!" to. My dad's was actually bought used, he got it from a young man who had just come home from Vietnam, and "thought" he wanted a car, (until he had one!). The car was with the vynil roof, just like that one. My dad's car had a 390, which was a HECK of a lot of motor for that Mustang, and it sure gave the car the ability to get up and go. The car started out as my dad's pride and joy, and I recall some guy in a Camaro wanting to race my dad, but, dad wouldn't, cuz my sister and I were in the car. (speaking of which, that carpet? I recall that carpet VIVIDLY. Mitch, that was so long ago, I was able to kneel down in the back, ON that carpet between the front and rear seats. (I know, it IS a small space. I can also tell you there were two bolts on that tunnel holding the drivetrain in place, and they would warm up significantly. That Mustang may have had the leather added to the doors and dash, I don't know. I also did not see the clock (broken) on the glove box. As I said, that was my dad's pride and joy, and then, it became "the work car", and then it became the only car, and then, it became the broken down car in the garage. When I turned 16, I was given the car. My dad told me the only caveat was, no racing if I could get it running. I never could. Like that car, the steel used back then was pretty crappy, your man is going to be in for a huge challenge to get it back in good order. One my car, the frame cracked, and was rotted so badly, it was not worth fixing. We were going to have it towed away, for twenty five bucks, as scrap, until my dad told the guy that there was a 390 in it. He gave us 500 bucks (in 1984). I have always thought I wanted to get another Grande, and restore it, but, it's just not worth it. Truth be told, I don't miss the car, it just reminds me of my dad. He passed away in 1986.

I love seeing these old classics’ shine brought back 👌🏼

It would be great if you could ask the owner to forward some pictures of this car once the restoration is complete 👍👍

I love it when you detail a classic. You have given the owner a large start on the restoration,

I will never understand how someone can leave a car in a barn for 20 YEARS. Like what?

I just love the way these old Mustangs look! The bodies are just so appealing to me. I can't imagine being able to say, "Oh yeah, I've owned it since I was TEN." How cool!

Love the older cars brought back to life. Maybe keep a large piece of cardboard or foam or something to cover the drain pit when needed?

Love seeing any car restored and brought back to life but especially a mustang. Good work Mitch! 🥰

Maybe in the future you can get a drain pit size rug or carpet piece for the rare occasions when you have to remove those bottom of car bolts.

I had a 69 Mustang....and I loved it. This brought back so many memories of when my husband and I met in 1986...thank you for sharing

I never think you can get better, but then you prove me wrong, thank you 👏

I love these restoration of these old classic cars they deserve a 2nd life! ❤️

@thedetailgeek thank you for the awesome work! Can’t wait to get this baby back on the road.

Wow! What a difference! Love the interior.... would be proud to show off this little gem!!

The 1969 Mustang refreshed an incredible new brand and brought restoration from an abandoned barn for 20 years. It's worth it and looking so beautiful classical car. Mitch, I am grateful for sharing the video. Have an awesome weekend! 👍😊❤️:_steamer::_bissell::_gross::_mike:

Love this channel. Last week I spent my weekend cleaning out my father’s 2006 F-150 and 2008 300. The amount of nicotine stains that were in the F-150 was beyond disgusting. Use of a drill brush and interior cleaner worked wonders. The 300 seemed to just be a big ashtray and dog hair. I bought this little car shop vac by ArmorAll and it’s amazing. Loads of attachments and 3 extensions.

I wish that you would show more when you clean the engine/motor area. That's so satisfying especially when one is so muddy or caked on. Thanks for doing it on this one.
