    Hello group. I want to get this on the forum about my body swap. I know I have posted a bunch on facebook but not so much here. I just wanna start with a handful of pros, the first and most important one to me is how cheap I was able to do it. I have better suspension, Bolt on performance, air conditioning works very well, I used everything I could off of the Mustang, including power, mirrors, and power windows. Easy to find a T 45 or TR – 3650 at the junkyard, And now I can bolt in a coyote engine. Only if I had the money.
    I have made a handful of YouTube videos trying to document everything. And hopefully there’s enough there to help the next person.

    In short, I cut Maverick frame rail (outermost) 1.5 inches down (inner) maybe 4 inches and slid it on the mustang frame rail like a glove and aligned both Maverick and Mustang seatbelt bolt holes which centered everything and I married the Maverick and Mustang wheel wells.

    here’s a quick look
