"8-Ball" the 1965 Mustang Coupe

The story of Tom's 1965 Mustang Coupe, "8-Ball", started when he picked up a Dodge Charger off the side of the road. He fixed it up, then immediately listed it on Facebook Marketplace for trades. After about a week and a half, Tom found someone who was willing to trade their 1965 Mustang Coupe for his Charger, so Tom and a few of his friends hopped in the Charger and drove to New Jersey to make the swap.

Once they got there, Tom immediately fell in love with the car. Check out the playlist above or browse the parts list below to see what Tom did to "8-Ball".
