Ductoe's mustang is a Southern dandy and born to be cajun just like the owner. (http://www.mustangandfords.com/featuredvehicles/1964_1973_mustang/mdmp_1108_1965_ford_mustang_coupe_cajun_mustang/index.html)Gabriel Ducote said his painter, Levi Gibson, is "more particular than me." This was his downfall, so to speak. The bodywork and paint looked so good, Gabriel had to make "everything else look as good as the paint." Another "problem" was putting on "one nice little shiny piece." One new part makes "the other ones look bad." Eventually, Gabriel built his '65 coupe to show standards. But first, he lived many Mustang adventures over the better part of a decade. Doesn't every classic Mustang modifier? The happenstances can be as humorous as they are challenging to the mind, body, and spirit. Gabriel began with the joyful purchase in 1994 in Louisiana. He's a Cajun by birth. His new old ride was a Raven Black Mustang with a white Pony interior. The 289 under the hood was a stock two-barrelùa garden-variety C-code. The transmission was a C4 Cruise-O-Matic, and the rearend was a common 8-inch. Giddy up.
