I have a 1968 mustang coupe I have trying to bring back to life. Before I got the car a few years ago it was sitting in a driveway for 20 plus years. Hasn't been registered since 87 I believe. It only has 85k on the odometer. With that being said, It has 4 wheel drum brakes and unknown suspension. It does have air shocks in the rear, not sure if that is an indicator of anything. This project currently is a budget build. I would like to use the car for street/strip use and just enjoy it for now. To get the car back on the road and to do somethings right the first time, What should I do to the car to get it to a street/strip condition? I'm a complete rooking with this car/old cars in general. It does have manuel steering which I plan to keep for that more positive feel. The air shocks will inflate and their are no audible leaks but over an hour it will deflate back down. The fill lines are old and brittle so I ordered some new lines I plan on installing to test to find out if it was the lines or the shocks. The black sleeve/rubber on the shocks looks it decent condition which is surprising.
