I just went to the autobody supply store and dropped down $800 on paint, clear and other supplies and materials.
My car goes in the shop tomorrow for rust and dent repair and a complete repaint. I also plan on getting the Cobra grille put on and I need to order a hood for it.
Im thinking about getting a Cobra R fiberglass hood.

My friend is doing all the bodywork and paint at his bodyshop and he's giving me a hell of a deal on labor.

Finally I wont have to see rust holes and dents and rusty fenders anymore. I hate seeing that crap now.

Yea 800 bucks for a pro shop is a REALLY good deal. I painted my stang in my garage for about 250 bucks. No clean room or anything but worked well. Consider yourself lucky! Pics when complete?
