Very happy with the way the 'stang turned out.
It is back home now, and hopefully by the weekend, we'll actually be installing parts

Is that just part of it painted? Looks good the parts that are painted.

Looks good - I got my motor out now and plan on cleaining up engine bay prior to repainting car. I can't decide if I want to go with black in engine bay or go with body color like you did. I'm not concerned about originality - so I'm leaning toward calypso all away around but seems like you'd need to make sure prep work is pretty good in engine area. Yours look great! Any advice?

Thanks guys.

Yes only parts are painted, jambs, window recesses, engine bay.

When all the other parts are primed and edges done, the car will be put together, all parts aligned under full chassis weight, (FE block) then back to the paint shop. Hopefully by mid April or so, for full colour.

Not gonna be a trailer queen, weekend cruiser, show and go. Once it is done I hope to use the car to raise money for Muscular Dystrophy.
Putting a lot of zero rust on vulnerable areas, just in case bad weather catches us.

Speaking of prep work there are many hours of block sanding grinding and shrinking disc work to smooth out the metal in the engine bay. It's worth it now though.
