  1. Thanks! This is the second one I've owned. The first was in a bit worse shape. I foolishly let it go a few years ago and regretted it. I bid on this one as soon as I saw it Not sure what my plans are for it. I kind of like the look of it as it is. I'll probably keep it as is for the moment until I get a few other projects finished. While I wait I'll formulate my plan. I like what Roger (Plowboy) did with one of his so I may use it for inspiration. Later-
  2. Yeah. Glad to get it. It even has the hood side spears. Later-
  3. Not quite. That was just the first bid by someone else. Later-
  4. Just won this one for an excellent price compared to what they are asking! Later-

  6. Got my end of a trade with Little Timmy today. Very happy! Later-
  7. Got these in the mail today from a trade with Little Timmy. Thanks Buddy!! Later-
  8. Got the remainder of my pin stripes put on my Mustang. It's very subtle and hard to photograph but I like the look. Later-
  9. Should call it the Lemon Crate since you're making lemonade from the lemons. (Using what you could from the destroyed body) Later-
  10. I'm looking forward to seeing this progress. Later-
  11. Thanks! Here is where I'm at. Now for the rest of the Lavender stripping. Later-
  12. I realize this pinstripe color is a little unconventional but I think I like it! Blue, Silver and a Lavender pinstripe. Later-
  13. Thanks TJ! Just got the body taped off and the first mist coat sprayed. Hopefully I'll have a pic up in the next couple of hours. Later-
  14. Got the hood bulge on my Mustang painted with Testors Graphite Dust. Once I get home I'll tape off the rocker panels and hit it with the same. Thinking of a yellow or red pinstripe to outline the GD. Later-
  15. 22 pieces of houndstooth interior decals to get the seats covered on the Mustang because I had to use decals from a 69 Camaro. Later-
  16. I heard that one Wal Mart in my area has kits. Don't know about any others. I guess I should check it out. But then, I may end up buying some..... Later-
  17. I'm still liking the plan for this. The soft top idea looks like a good one. I'm interested to see how you work it out. Are you thinking of making tracks for it to slide in or just attach it on top? Later-
  18. Tonight's progress on the 57. Got the grill and headlights installed. A bit of Molotow and panel line accent touch ups done. I noticed a problem with the rear drivers side bumper molding. This is a problem with the mold because the two rear bumpers I had were identical. I began the repair by cutting the parking light off of the driver's side and cutting a passenger side from a spare. Then glued the passenger side on the driver's side. Spread a bit of putty, dried and sanded. Now to get some Molotow on it during the next bench session. Later-
  19. Came home to find this waiting. Got it from FB Marketplace. Still sealed. Later-
  20. Sounds like an ambitious plan , but I like it! Later-
  21. Not hard to tell that you have put a ton of work into that! Your mods look good and it will be a stunner when you finish it. Keep after it! Later-
  22. I like the idea of the Grey or silver graphics. Later-
  23. Painted the final color coats on my Mustang this morning after smoothing out a couple of spots. Went with Testors Viper GTS Blue pearl because it was on hand. May do some white or black graphics. Later-
