Hey Sparky, what was your planned completion date when you started? I see you are well over a year. I started mine with a 6 month deadline for power tour and just wondered if that was too aggressive? I only work on it 1 day a week but I do not need all that metal work.

Love the color. Looks similar to my Vista Blue 06GT.

Nice car. Just getting around to prep working on my inherited (from grandfather) 65 mustang. I plan on getting it back running with efi/overdrive (picked up a donor 90 mustang) before I concern myself with the bodywork... What's the plans for suspension/wheels, unless I missed it up there?
