Attached are some pics of the (slow) progress I've made since getting my car back from paint in May. So far I've:
Stripped all the wiring out of the car.
Discovered I've got a rotten drivers side foot well.
Removed the old single brake master cylinder.
Installed the new gas tank and sender, gas tank insulation mat, trunk mat and filler board, trunk lid weatherstripping, tail lights, reversing lights, exhaust trim rings and misc. bits and pieces, and front parking lights.
Doesn't sound a lot if you say it quick......so why has it taken me four months to do it?

Nice ride, sweet colors. Are you keeping the wheels or getting different ones.

I'm undecided about the wheels, what do you guys think?

Great color combo but I am not a big fan of the wheels. It gives it a bit of a dated look. That said, I think it will look nice with those wheels once you get it back together.

They were laid on in accordance with Shelby's dimensions. Not sure of the exact width, but I have a sketch of the stripe layout if you would like it.
