The 1965 Mustang Convertible is going together quite nicely at Maple Hill Restoration.

Hopefully, you have been following along with the restoration of this beautiful, Twilight Turquoise 1965 Mustang Convertible in the shop at Maple Hill Restoration.

Today, we have some pictures as Jeremy paints the 200 six cylinder engine that is going in the Mustang.  The engine was prepared and all parts were shot with epoxy primer first.  It was then assembled, masked off, and painted with the correct level of gloss, black paint.

Also check out the pictures of the cool engine drop hoist that Jeremy built to install this engine.  Soon, we will have pictures of the detailed engine with all of the accessories bolted on.  We can't wait to see it!!

How about this cool engine bracket that Jeremy built for the 200 cubic inch six cylinder engine going in the Mustang?
