    mmm that looks so nice. Great work on the body panels if you did it. They mate up perfectly. Sweet lines :)

    Is that the ford paint color "mineral grey"? It looks lighter than the 99-03s I see, but it is hard to tell just from photos. I have been wanting that color combo on mine since about 1992, I'm afraid to do it now due to Eleanwhore and all that though. Damn it looks good though!

    I helped with the alignment, but the body shop did most of the work. The fiberglass panels were alot of work. The job cost 4K total - all the work (I did all of the stripping).

    Nope, not much progress. I am awaiting the return of my rack after modifying it for headers. I plan on installing the wiring in the next 2 weeks as well.

    Taking my time due to shoulder surgery and instability at work.....afraid to spend the cash right now.

    Fiberglass hood

    I bought the hood from the Mustang Ranch. Dimensionally, it was a great fit. It is also of very high quality. The only problem I had was a slight bow in the rear. We fixed that by installing hood bumpers in the cowl lip, which looks very neat and clean after paint/finishing. There are detailed photos of the fix on my photo site.
