Neil Brown's "old" 1966 Ford Mustang Hardtop is brand-new and modern underneath. (http://www.mustangmonthly.com/featuredvehicles/mump_1210_1966_ford_mustang_hardtop_21st_century_c oupe/)With 22 Fords, most of them high-performance with names like Shelby and Boss, I wondered why Tulsa's Neil Brown built a '66 coupe. "That's the one that was just sitting here not doing anything." Mustangs tend to sit when the excitement wears off. Neil did not want to sell the '66 because he liked the car's looks. But he wasn't driving the hardtop with so many other choices in his Ford arsenal. Then one day, Brown's friend James Lubbert said, "If you're not going to drive the car, have you thought about restoring it? "Brown thought about late-model Mustangs fitted with classic Mustang bodies, or "the luxury of a new car with an old body." He wanted to do the reverse: "Leave the old body there and put a new car underneath it."
