It looks like a camaro or could be a firebired from the looks of it.

I finally had some time to go see how the Mustang was after being media blasted. I was very happy with the results because I was expecting the worst since the roof had to be replaced. The only trouble spot is the driver side quarter panel, everything else is fine. The dark spots are hand prints.

I stopped by to check on the Mustang today. The body work is about 75% complete. All that is left is the deck lid, rear valance, and passenger quarter panel. Next stage is poly primer to prepare for blocking.




This is a repop mounted to show me the difference compared to the original. Notice the big gap.



Here is an original.



Hood lines



Other side of hood



Driver side ready for next stage



Passenger fender ready for next stage

Where did you order your hood from?

Looks good, lots of work. Can't wait to see it when it's done. I'm a little concerned about the hand-prints in the early photo, looked like grease/oil. I hope they got it all off and cured it real well as paint doesn't like contamination.
