I like the front end, but the back end looks like it is missing something. Are you leaving it the way it is, or are you going to try to put a chrome bumper on to match the front?
 
I give you props for the workmanship, the work is great, it's got to take dedication and skill to do that. So good job there, but I can't say as I like the end results. I guess I am too much a purist, I like the II mostly the way it came. It looks like your trying to turn a II into a 68 or 69.
 
I traded the old outlaw wheels and I now have 5-bolt axles.
The back is rather corvette looking without any chrome steel but I haven't come up with an idea that I like.
The 69 Mustang Mach I is my favorite and the influences are apparent.
I got my fiberglass roll pan from a boat guy in British Columbia and I don't recommend him. He over charged and it didn't fit well. But Scottrods in Ohio has a great price on a better fitting one and even has a "bumper molding shape" built in.

I should turn on notification if I can find it.
