I got the car back together Thursday and took it to Pigeon Forge for the Shades of the Past Rod Run. My little boy loves riding in it !! Puts him right to sleep. The before pic is the car as bought in April. Alot of people here helped and gave advice and I want to say "Thanks !" I will finish engine and drivetrain this winter. I just wanna drive it for a few months now.

Thanks for the comments ! The car is painted the original Poppy Red, and I did repaint it from the original picture up top.

The front valence and hood came from Mustangs Unlimited, but I would not recommend it. I spent MANY hours working it to make it fit. You might wana check with Branda. I hear their fiberglass is good, or Maier (spelling ?). You could also modify your original front valence by cutting it out. I've seen this done and it looks good. If I could do it over, I would cut mine !
