Finally done! This is my 5 yr project, finally complete. She has a 302 engine, C4 tranny, Rod and Custom Motorsports Mustang II front end with disc brakes. Pretty much everything on this car is new. Did everything myself with the exception of installing the front windshield & back glass, installing the exhaust system and spraying the paint. Thanks for looking! Can't wait to start entering her into some of the local car shows.

Thanks for the compliment. They are 17X7" rims, 245/45/17 on rear and 225/45/17 on the front. I believe the backspace on the rims were either 4" or 4.5"

It was the last car that Baily's paint and body (in Martinez, Georgia) did before they sold the business. They were about the only paint and body shop in the area that still painted older cars. Most of them now days just do insurance claims (replacing panels and spraying them). I did the body work myself and had them do a final blocking on it just to make sure I didn't miss anything.

Thanks I lost a lot of sleep deciding on the color. My wife wanted red, but it wasn't for me. Always liked a silver car and picked it out by looking through countless color samples at the paint shop. If I remember correctly it was a Chrystler color code.
