Have one small comment you may want to take into consideration.
I would suggest you smooth the top bar of the rad support if you have not already done so.
Ask me how I know. I missed a small detail like this on my car and it looks me right in the face every time I open the hood.
Good luck and looking forward to seeing the completed car.

Funny thing is I didn't give that a ton of thought until I was painting it. I do plan on making a close out panel and hope that hides the top rail. If not, I will smooth it out and reshoot just that area. Good eye!

Please feel free to copy them. I posted up to share what I have done and maybe inspire, just as most of you have all done for me.

I think that when you are on the road driving and enjoying what you accomplished so far, the reward from that is what some never feel. Remember, there is always the 2.0 2.5.3.0 and on, plus it will give you some behind the wheel evaluation on what you want to change and move up on, keep up the great work. I had a 71 Maverick back 30 years ago, fun and aggressive cars to work on.

Thanks for the comments. Kind of my plan, get it on the road and enjoy, then go back and update as needed for version 2.0.
