    Thanks Mo.yeah we looked at those lights for weeks and they were close but I couldn't see them working like I had hoped. As simple as the Ford lights are, I am really happy with how they work on the car. I do have the tire well for you at the Concord shop.

    The dash is looking good. The MetalSpecks turned out really well. Any clear?

    The car looks fantastic. Congrats on the little girl! My wife is due the beginning of July.

    Thanks and congratulations! No clear, haven't committed to the color. May end up going orange. That was my first choice anyway and now my wife has decided that the hok sunset orange looks good...

    Unfortunately not this year. My wife has a commitment and I am on baby duty. Going to get the back seat fit today so I can get baby seat anchors fabbed up. But still no windows so a long trip would be a no go. Next year I will start the tradition

    Been a while since I posted. Been driving the wheels off it and tweaking some of the metal. I am done to the best of my ability and so I have dropped it for my friend Brian to finish. You can check his work out at jenningskustomrestoration.com

    He swears it'll be in feather fill or maybe even blocked and primed in time for style kings in 2 weeks.

    The guys at Jennings Kustom and Restoration are kicking some ass. I got a bunch of update pics. Their communication has been awesome, I feel like I am there every day while they are working on it.
