here is the last before epoxy primer

with some epoxy primer

hsean · Sep 29, 2009

i have removed the rollcage and i have to weld up some holes where the cage was mounted.the next step will be to epoxy primer the floorboards and underneath as well. the plan is to try and shoot some paint in the engine bay and floorboards myself before it gets to cold here in michigan.

here is a few pics of the color that i am leaning towards it was a cloudy day but the color still looks good.

that is so true this car is unbelievably clean for a 23 year old car .i really got lucky when i found this car in ohio of all places.i really expected it to be a rust bucket.

thanks man coming from someone who has one of the nicest enginebays around i appreciate that.i would recommend that someone do this to really get that clean look when you pop the hood.i just will never do this again when i read that it is alot of work man you guys weren't kidding. there were alot of days where the wife said you've been making all that noise and driving the neighbors nuts with no progress.

i got the trim in place for the quarter windows .i am going with the pre 1987 quarter windows with the svo sail panels.the metal had to be cut and extra holes drilled out for the sail panel .this was tedious work because i didn't want to cut too much when i was cutting the notches in for the clips.

here is what i am talking about

here is the inside where the clips can be seen holding the trim in

i have both windows done and i will be painting that are sem black and the svo sail panel body color .

here is what i got done today i welded this bar across that i will put the brackets from the sn95 and be able to mount the 03 mustang rear seat.

i plan on sanding and cleaning tomorrow and then more epoxy primer and hopefully i get one more nice day . i want to throw some paint on the engine bay and floorboards sometime this week if the weather cooperates. i would like to run all my wiring and start the wire hiding as well.

here is where i am at right now i sprayed this yesterday

and underneath the car

here is a pic with the battery tray in case anyone was wondering why i didn't box them down all the way to the end.

and the only bling you'll see on the outside of the car
03 cobra original wheels

God damn I love Termi wheels.

hsean · Oct 4, 2009

the best looking wheel on any mustang

hsean · Oct 22, 2009

here is where i am at right now i sprayed some high build primer and did some more block sanding

and here is what i did last night mind you this is my first time painting and i used a harbor freight special gravity fed gun.the color i finally decided to go with is the 2009 cyber gray that you see on the corvette z06.i saw one on the road a week before i bought the paint and i was sold.

overall i am pretty happy with the way it came out and looking forward to reassembly i also sprayed the door jams and interior and underneath the car.
