Stopped by the body shop today to check on the progress and took a few pics. The top of the car is going to be sanded all the way to the metal and be completly redone to get rid of the crows feet that showed up and as you can see I have decided to go wingless this time. Now there is about a week worth of block sanding to be done and brand new fresh paint job!

Not much progress has been made in the past month. The car has been painted three times in the last month and a half thanks to some a55 hole walking through the bodyshop parking lot and of all 100 cars in the parking lot pick my fresh painted, wetsanded, and buffed mustang to run their key around! this is the car as it looks now if they can just keep someone from keying the car this time I may get to pick it up next week.

Hopefully the motor will be going in sunday since its the only free day I have to work on it this coming weekend. I went last weekend to the shop and degreased the engine, pressure washed all of the sandy grit out, blew all of the water out, put the new rings on the piston of the cylinder that was burning oil and added the new windage tray that I bought. Here are the pictures I took this morning after I loaded it up the bumper was in the car, I didn't want to rip the bumper off the car trying to load it on the trailer.
