Stellar!



I need to send my Mustang to you for some flares! LOL If I could ever grow a big enough set that would allow me to put some wider tires on the old girl....

You don't even have a Mustang, just a Avatar.:smiley_smack:

GPR 02-11-2017 03:24 PM

Today I sprayed a couple of coats of SPI Universal clear. The next step will be to wet sand and lay out the stripes and spray more clear.

Spectacular build. My son has a 65 coupe and just read your thread start to end as well.

GPR 08-11-2019 06:29 PM

I heard this rumble go by the house and I was surprised to find out it was Chad with his 66 Mustang. I haven't heard from him since he picked it up and he has driven it over 500 miles and is very happy. He had the windows tinted and the trunk finished.
