There is no shortage of oddities on Craigslist these days. Sometimes you find the deal of the century and other times you find a ThunderStang, or is it a MustaBird? Either way, the owner says:
What we have here is a 1966 Mustang.. sort of. The body and doors have been shortened by about 20″, and made to resemble an early T-Bird. The car was originally ‘modified’ 20+ years ago, then was ‘rebuilt’ after that. It now sits with NO ENGINE nor TRANS! The shortened drive shaft is still there. Needs total restoration. Was a 2-time World of Wheels winner in a previous life. I found it with thoughts of restoring it. I’ve decided to sell it instead. Hood is fiberglass. You will be buying a shell.
For 12 Benjamins, I can’t say that this is a bad deal. I mean where else are you going to find a BirdStang for less? I’ll tell you, you won’t. Somebody needs to snatch this thing up, drop a 429 in it and love life. Will that person be you?

Special Thanks to Joe L. for spotting this little gem… and I do mean little.
A few years ago I found a ’57 Studebaker hawk in a berry patch done like this…wanted to cry.
Please tell me you got pictures of it! I love ’57 Hawk’s!
I’ll see if’n it’s still there.
I had a ’53 Commander ’till my youngest was born.
Baby acomin’, toys agoin’!
As far as I am concerned the person that did this destroyed a perfectly good mustang; sorry I am a purist .
