as stated, this is my first time really trying to make the paint pop. I'm mostly pleased with the results. some of the paint is too far gone, and I have a couple places where rock chips turned to rust. I'm not that great with a camera either, I tried to get some of it in the light because 90% of the paint really is brilliant to look at, but the spot I chose had the sun facing the camera, so all pictures had to be taken in the 20 foot shadow of the building....oh well, I'll quit talking, here are some pics.

it's a long way from finished. very frustrating to have such big plans and no money to follow up on them, but I guess you have to enjoy what you've got!

You need to clean up your headlights, other than that your car looks great. Great pictures and location too!

I have a full OEM cobra front end package in my attic. I've been waiting to get it painted to put it all on, but maybe I'll throw the headlights on early!

Looks good but You forgot tire shine bro.

I know! I didn't realize until late because my rear tires are like rubber bands......I need some higher profile tires.


thanks everyone.

It is really the only thing that needs to be done to your car. Maybe clean up the brake calipers too. But both are minor things, you have a great looking car man!

thanks! I plan on getting cobra brakes in the front to match the ones that came with the IRS. that is why the rear are red, and the front are stock. lol.

thanks twista, the rear are 285/35/18. I hate how low profile it is, but the width is perfect in my eyes.
