  1. Reason for that Casey is the hood black out was not an option on the standard gt hood. It was an option on shaker gt's too. It will look good though. Does the gt kit come with the rear slats or is it the cobra? Either way I have an extra set if we want them on it. Really set off that black hood
  2. The GT didn't come with hood blackout. Only the cobra did. I think it might look ok if you did it with the proper pinstripe border. I'm not a big fan of just putting a black hood on it but that's just me
  3. I have spent some time with all variations including 69/70 boss 429s and personally the styling of the 70 Mach with the user friendly 351c 4 speed combo is my favorite. Boss 302s are not much fun on the street due to the lack of low rpm grunt and the boss 9s in factory trim are a bit doggy and too valuable to rip around in
  4. Looking real good. Did you cut the engine bay from the dart as well? How is the new job btw? What are you working on?
  5. I am with bill. Paint is a pain to get up here
  6. Very nice. I hope for mine to be in paint mid week but I don't know if that will happen lol
  7. I would satin coat that for that high tech look
  8. Looking good. I have this kit but won't build it
  9. Managed to get a little more in on this. Jambs all match up to interior now. Couple little things to do on them. I got some primer on them and they look ok to me. Trunk underside details are in at this point as well
  10. No biggie. Car turned out nice. I actually paint the backside of the light black too on this car. It darkens the red up just enough.
  11. I have built several of these and my truck for the tail lights setup is this. I paint the honeycomb pe part flat black ( as it should be) then I take some semi gloss clear and use it as glue to hold it on then spray the whole assembly with it. Works every time
  12. Not quite accurate on the gt part. Earlier cars 65-66 you had to get the 4 barrel carb engine. The A code was the base GT engine. The base v8 was the C code 2 barrel 289
  13. You have done a nice job with just an ok kit. Good stuff
  14. There is a photoetch kit in the kit
  15. Awesome. I myself know what it's like to not have time to come up for air!
  16. Congrats. A dream job for sure. A place that allows you to build and create other peoples dreams. Can't help it, you gonna restaa saam muuuscle caaas.... Oh. And build some haaat raaads... Lol. J/k buddy
  17. I think this could go either way, it's so well proportioned it would look good as a detailed out chromed up tu toned show car!
  18. There is one of these right down the street from me! Guy just finished it last spring. It's different that's for sure
  19. Looks great. Leave the wing In the park
  20. This thing is just nuts! Love it. Keep going
  21. Got a bit more done. Everything opens! Don't mind the wheel and tire combo. That's for a lawman project but were handy! One door jamb coming along. Comments good or bad welcome
  22. Yeah and trade out the ugly back bumper for the stock one. That's how I roll
  23. Are you going to build the cheez whiz 55? One of my all time favorites
  24. Very nice. What clear did you use?
