Hello. Glad to be here. I have 2 Mustangs. A 90 fox body 5.0 GT convertible and my 96 GT 4.6L. The 90 is not drivable yet. Hope to start on her soon. I’m in love with my 96. Such a fun car to drive. She’s my daily driver. She had a lot of paint damage. Mostly clear coat issues. But I have an awesome neighbor that helped me fix that. I did ALL of the prep work. Lots of sanding, minimal bondo. Primer and sent it off to a professional to do the color and clear coat. I finished with the polishing. Did everything but the drivers door, front bumper and the front quarter panels. I think it looks perfect enough for me. This has inspired me to try to do as much work on my own car as I can. Sometimes it’s scary. Thinking I might have bitten off more than I can chew, but somehow I’ve managed. And I can always surrender, & tow to mechanics, right? Anyway, too much about me. I am mustang momma.

Looks like all you need now is a center cap. Let's see that fox body.

Welcome from Orange County, Ca. That is a nice paint job. Remember, when you take on a new job, always reward yourself with a new tool. You’ve earned it! Good luck.
