I've decided to move forward and stop with the "HP" for a while. I want to focus more on the body of the car and get the car looking great. All my life I've said "Making the car look good cost money, witch in turn takes away from my go fast goodies" Now I'm focusing on the car looking as best as it can. Started cleaning the car up today and should have everything stripped out of it tomorrow.

I think I'm painting the whole car a custom color... So custom i have no clue what color I'm doing:lol: Really I'm waiting to hear from the painter and his idea's. I'm not a painter/body guy and won't pretend to be. I want this done right.

Good start. It'll get your mind off the trans frustration for a while too. Youll be able to get that figured out later and the car will be sweeeet:grin:

Looks like the car is going 5 speed. I'll worry about the AOD in about a year or so.

Ha welcome to my world buddy! Ford left so many damn holes in these cars it seems like it takes for ever to clean every thing up. We just painted mine the other night finally.

After seeing Wendy's car (TrikkyBitch) with the holes all welded up and how nice it looked I just had to do it. Hoping it looks as nice as Wendy's when its done.

Today was a depressing fucking day. The painter who was to paint the car made a deal with me and we were trading work and he is now out of town for a while and now no paint and body work.....
But here's today progress.

Not really. It sat at the body shop outside since November. Sometime in January someone stole the Weld Pro-stars off it and the fuel tank and a bunch of other stuff. They even tried to get the K-member. So it came back to my shop. I had no room for it here so its now sitting out front my house.
So now I'm farther away from getting it back together then ever. I really have an itch right now to put her back together but I really don't want to do it till its painted all up and lookin good. I've never had a nice painted car so I'm trying to be patient.
