Fair bit of body work there, I wouldn't call it an easy project. Take a look at the inner fender where the patch was welded in, and the other pictures. There isn't much that is straight there. Good luck with it.
Mine was a '66 coupe, 289. Rebuilt all the mechanicals, kept it stock except for a mild cam, bored over as little as I could. Did the engine and all ancillaries, automatic transmission, suspension, brakes, diff, and so on. Body was good enough to drive, but I never got it to show condition. Sold it before they started to really appreciate in value. My uncle had a very nice '69 Boss 351 with the shaker hood scoop and rear window slats. I have always liked Mustangs, the earlier the better. Personally, I would look for one that is truer to stock.
Edit: '69 Mach 1. It was a 351. Boss 351 was later. What was I thinking.
