That looks sexy. If you feel like coming to GA and painting mine, I'll buy you a beer.

GA is a bit of a drive for me, but since your offering a beer, OK then

Very nice job. Can I drag my 66 Stang convertible to Niagara and have it painted next to the falls?

Good work! Wait till you color sand and buff and then it really comes to life!
How many coats of clear did you shoot?

Where the fenders the cheaper ones or the expensive OEM Ford Tooling ones? I was thinking about getting the cheaper ones later down the road but was worried they would take a lot of work to line up right

the fenders i put on are the cheaper ones ($134 ea form cj pony parts). the fit is excellent. the only modification i had to make was to to elongate the headlight bucket mounting tab holes.
i used all repro sheetmetal and would do it again. the price is right and the quality is very good.
