    Default 66 mustang update

    In the fall i had to repo my mustang from the "body shop". A friend had it for 4.5 years and did a fair amount of work. New 1/4 panels, door skins, etc... He stopped working on it and started giving excuses. He said all it needed was to be blocked and painted...WRONG!

    I learned never take a restoration job to a collision body shop...never.

    So i got it to a shop near lansing. Then came the bad news. Door skins installed wrong and door adjustment could not make up for the misaligned skin, trunk lid was ground down too thin, front valance all cracked up. So i bought new doors (not skins), fiberglass front valance, Trunk lid, fiberglass rear bumper.

    They had the car for 2 weeks and should be in paint soon
