A few days later when the weather cooperated I was able to push it back outside and see how it looks assembled.

I Like it!!!

I also took some time to play with stripe ideas. My original plan was a Boss 302 hockey stick style stripe. But as I have been building this car that design has been used over and over agin, even on new cars. Ford is even using it now on the new trucks, doesn't make it very original at all now does it?!

So here I am playing with a stripe design somewhat reminiscent of the the Must GT/Shelby's had. I of course don;t want to copy that, so I have not only extended them from the front valance all the way into the rear quarters.













The hood will also have my take on the factory Grabber stripe seen here in tape. I plan on also running them up onto the top of the dash as well just for the sake of doing it.



Unsure if I will go with one solid stripe like this first one, or on the second U shape like seen below.
