Sorry for those that were fallowing this build, and it didn't seem like allot of you, well it has been shelved, yes, the cowell broke during buffing, so paint has to go all the way to the bone, but it will be better this trip, so hang in there, Tainted Love is not dead.....

My poor baby after her dip, look's so naked, the piece that broke should be just about ready to come out, anytime now, I decided not to take it all to the bone, then again the brake juice, help'd with that choice too......

Wow have I been in a slump, a bad one too, anyway, got Tainted Love back up and going, buy putting a new cowl on her, just doing the fill in work, and the smoothing, then on to primer and paint, but this time I'm thinking I might just go 2 tone, hmmmmmmm:

If I can make a recommendation? These Lincolns are so big and slab-sided it needs something to break up all that real estate. So I would love to see some sort of side trim added or a two tone or side graphic.

Nice fix, can't wait to see it in paint again! The metalic black paint might not look good on the computer sceens, but I bet it looks great in person, or on a contest table under the lights! I think those wheels are perfect for the attitude of the car, and with a blood red interior, it's gonna be soooo coooool!

OK, so I'm sitting here eating some chicken, nuke'd of course, so, I thought, I would share the new Kolor of Tainted Love, now I didnt have enough sherry, errr I mean cherry, to go around, so I used Garnett Red over the black base, well here she is, I will take that tape ridge down before the clear of course, oh and all Dupli-Color:
