Dang, I was really lucky the angle grinder hit me in the chin like Tyson. There was blood but no stitches.
@CarMichael Angelo , I know you hate these Falcons, but the bearded wonder did make pretty sweet work out of one.
And @droopie85gt , not entirely sure of your plans, but if you get it sitting like his, it could be a pedal cart and be cool in my eyes.
I need reading glasses now because I'm old and the bifocals safety glasses work perfectly. I have 20/15 vision, just can't focus close any more because of presbyopia. They're also ideal for using at the range too.Hmm, I don't remember that story. I could have slept since then. But I have bifocal safety glasses. I thought about getting some 1.25 or 1.5 'reader' type magnifier safety glasses, but I am climbing up and over the radiator support and would probably bust my ass and break a wrist or something. I can read a business card from a mile away but not less than 3 feet!
Prescription safety glasses are the shiznit. I have a pair in my toolbox at work and wear them any time a grinder, cut-off-wheel, chisel, airhammer, etc. comes out.I need reading glasses now because I'm old and the bifocals safety glasses work perfectly.

my problem is that I need magnification that increase the closer I get my face to the work. If I’m trying to get a really nice weld, and I can get my face close enough, I need about a 3.0 magnifier. Back up a foot, and it needs to be about a 2.5.Prescription safety glasses are the shiznit.

That’s a north jersey car very nice in person. Actual pic I took for the color referenceI like the idea of grabber green or gotta have it green.
On a fox for reference...
Thats the shiznit.
Another local NY car for some inspiration
*”Collect call from the 18th century for a Mr. Drew....Will you accept the charges?”I need to know what size back tire that is and how much he moved the leafs!!!
So our business was closed but I had to work til 2 meeting with a vendor on a 1.25m powder coating line we are looking to design and purchase.
So I didn't get to work on Lil Red today other than I found my laser level thing. I need a tripod to hold it so I can mark this line, but I think this is approximately where the cut will be. Gotta buy or borrow a tripod.
The braces will be gone too. Either fab up some back to the firewall OR tie off the cage to brace theshockstrut towers.

Leaf springs?!!!...They had those things on Covered wagons..
Be a man and put a set of Ladder bars and coil overs on your freakin drag car..
It's actually paint, here's a cool article on the build progression. https://mustangfanclub.com/grabber-green-cobra/This one looks like a wrap:
Oh, I believe you. No orange peel in that one. LoLIt's actually paint, here's a cool article on the build progression. https://mustangfanclub.com/grabber-green-cobra/
I’ll just about guarantee you that those things hanging down in front of the tires are neither.Thats the shiznit.
I can't type anymore because of the tears in my eyes from Mike saying something nice.
Guess you haven’t seen how fast they are going on a split mono leaf / cal trac setup. Ron Rhodes has been 1.06 60foot .*”Collect call from the 18th century for a Mr. Drew....Will you accept the charges?”

It’s a grudge car so getting any Info isn’t likely . Crazy Dons chassis built the chassis as it was originally his car .I need to know what size back tire that is and how much he moved the leafs!!!
