Nice color combo. Is it gonna be wet sanded and buffed?

Yes, he hadn't gotten to that yet when I took the photos. He was waiting on me to check the color as the inital photos he sent me looked pretty far off. Lucky it was just the angle, lighting, and maybe his phones processing...

I took this photo and it is accurate to the actual color.

Photo dump incoming. I have had a lot going on including the birth of my second son so the car has been on the back burner for awhile. I am making another push now to try to have it ready for Foxtoberfest. Top Notch Garage cleaned up and stuffed the rear diff for me. I am hoping to finish off the brake lines and fuel system this weekend. I may have some time to finish buttoning up the engine to go in. I just received the flexplate and all the fluids I need.

WOW - second son, man you are blessed and have been busy. Thanks for the pics, and don't rush too much as there is always next year for Foxtoberfest. Love that color combo

Congrats on the baby and still finding time to work on the car!

Thanks guys I appreciate it. I won't rush it and have been very thorough. I really do hope to make it. I don't expect the interior to be buttoned up but I want it driving by then.

Lol thanks, I'm looking forward to meeting everybody

Yall have any pointers for foxtoberfest? Best hotel? Car security?

FastDriver · Jul 23, 2025

Embassy Suites is the host hotel with a nice bar and hotel where a lot of foxtoberfest folks will be hanging out, and you can get the best rate on the foxtoberfest site (foxyevents). A car was stolen across town, last year, but not at this hotel. Strength in numbers... There will be a lot of nice cars in the parking lot. And, if you trailer, there's a huge parking lot to park in.
