Got the car back from paint. It turned out pretty good although the paint was a little splotchy. I am going to take it back tomorrow to show them and see what they think.

I also messed with the engine a little. I bought a rebuilt carb and threw that on. It ran a little better but still had a few problems. I have some ideas on what it is but I am going to take it to a Mustang shop tomorrow to get another opinion

I have almost all of the front end done. Had to pull the engine since the transmission shop forgot to install the engine to bellhousing plate.

Wow, that car is a head turner. Hands down my favorite mustang of all times, the 65/66 fastback. Looks great David. How long did that take? Didn't seem like that long ago you just bought this lil guy.

Thanks for the compliments! It took about 3 months. This one needed a lot of work but was definitely a nice car when it was completed.
