Well...the front end is apart again, but the deck lid is on for the first time in a while.

Well...I'm not really a car show guy, so all thats left is too drive and enjoy it. My goal has always been to top my old burnt purple mustang which was the best car I built to date. More fender blocking done.

Thanks man! The only thing I filled so far is the two little holes for the Ford Emblem. The Trunk key hole may be a possibility, but I really haven't done much with that piece yet.

Spent several hours blocking the underside of my hood. I am going to do some custom paint on it so it needs to be laser straight. I spent most of the time shaving the Cervini logo and making everything smooth. 3 coats of primer followed.

Thanks for the suggestion. I will probably do something subtle. I may match the cobra snake, ghost it in, shred it and run flames through it. It will have something to do with my previous car and how this build came to be.

You plan on a black paint job as i remember well ?
Why not shine that up with some thin coat(s) of candy purple over the black, in remembrance of your first one.

(and perhaps some subtle purple true flames + pony on the inside of the hood?)

Thanks for the suggestions. I keep finding little details that I need to fine tune, so the progress is slow, but will make for a better job in the end.
