Default Stanced Classic? - 1967 Mustang Couple Project

Hey folks!
When I was 15 I bought my first car, a 1967 Mustang Coupe. My dad's and my goal was to rebuild the car from ground up, it originally had a 289ci engine but luckily this one had a 351ci in it!
During all the time restoring it, I had many different ideas on how the car would look like when finished, Blue, Bullitt-like, Red, Grey... But now I made my final decision and want it black!

(Don't think that this will be done tomorrow, I'm doing my last year in highschool and don't always have time to work bysides. And other than that I also want to spend some money on my Miata too..)

Here is how I got her 3 and a half years ago:





Two videos to show the progress over the years:


Almost a month ago the car came back from the paintjob, I was stunned by the result.




















And this is the look I am going for!




I'll keep you guys updated if anything new happens!

The rear of the car is not almost complete, not lowered yet though, that will be done when the car is nearly complete..
Also cleaned up the wheels the previous owner gave me for free, will be on the car until I buy other ones (when finished).

Wow seems to be pretty dead this forum...

Yesterday I blacked out the chrome taillight bezels, I love how it turned out!
Ordered a black carpet for the interior a couple of weeks ago, too bad they are out of store, but I'll post photos as soon as it is installed!

That's how they looked before sanding and painting:

Thanks!
Will soon start working on the front, and decided to take the car outside to see how the color really looks in daylight!
The car still looks really high, but that is since there is NOTHING in the car yet, the springs have been cut so I can't wait to see how the car looks later!
