Newest change... took about three minutes, as the old one was a bit rusty...
Old (disregard the WONDERFUL rust);

Instead of buying a new antenna you could of just shortened and repainted your OEM one, it's very simple to do, I had done it twice to mine (kept going shorter) before I finally just went with a delete plug altogether since I never use regular radio

Had 20 bones left on an AM gift card. Not much else for $20 there

http://www.latemodelrestoration.com/item/ACC-9401CP-BLK/94-04-Mustang-Carpet-Coupe-Convertible-Black

I have realized since I got the car I have done quite a bit little by little;

New 12'' sub
New front speakers
New shorty antenna
New window tinting
New center dash piece
New tires and rims
New cold air intake

And still have lying in wait (either in my garage or for delivery);

New full length subframe connectors
New OEM clutch kit
New blacked out 5.0 badges
New black carpet
New back speakers
And finally, some white paint and clear coat to fix the lovely spots that lost their color

I failed to mention the following;
In a conversation with the wife, selling the car came up. I told her if she seriously wanted me to sell it, I would.
Her response;
"I wouldn't let you sell it. You have too much money into it"

Yes sir. Got me a keeper

So today began the long road of body exterior work. I decided to tackle the rusty strip above my windshield, as it was needind the most immediate attention. This is a temporary fix. If the white looks good enough, and I am confident enough in my attempt, I will do it all over. I will do the entire car, just probably in sections (sadly). I know I need a much lighter primer, but it;s what I have right now. Taped it off, sanded, primered, sanded, and first coat of white;

I realize there are runs. This is the very first time I have done anything like this on my own. And remember, this is all rattle can, in my garage. I realize it currently looks like garbage. I plan on cleaning it up a lot

Nothing special. Just sanded and threw another coat of white on. Gotta get some 500 and 800 grit. All I had tonight that would do much was 120... You can probably see where the 120 took a bit too much off....
