Rider Posted September 8, 2018 Posted September 8, 2018 Great progress. I really like that shade of red. Then wheels really work with that car.

mustang1989 Posted September 11, 2018 Posted September 11, 2018 You're doing a great job with this one Andre. A tip I've learned from this forum on panel lines (and it's certainly not a deal breaker here) for use in future builds is to use darker tones of the body color for the panel lines. Has a little bit more subtle effect on them.

Scalper Posted October 8, 2018 Author Posted October 8, 2018 Was able to spray the front and back bumbers / front end. Time to start paint the trim and grill.
Scalper Posted October 9, 2018 Author Posted October 9, 2018 Another progress shot. Interior is completed. Engine test for had to take the headers off. I think I’ll have to add he headers after engine is mounted.
Scalper Posted October 10, 2018 Author Posted October 10, 2018 Thanks Dann.. I got the windshield in last night.. and my body is warped but it will have to do. does not look warped when fitted to the chassis but can tell with the glass in hoping to get some bench time tonight.
Scalper Posted October 12, 2018 Author Posted October 12, 2018 Doing some free hand tonight. Hate masking. Front almost done. Grill turning signal and touch ups. Back end half done. Rear glass and ready for painting.
