I have been holding off with posting pics until some good progress was made...and I am glad to say the shell is in full primer...!







Up next is a bit more sanding, seam sealing, and final paint on the jambs, underside, and firewall.

The shop is really making some progress this week.

Pics of the 3m rubberized coating from this morning:







Rockers are ready for rocker spray...


Props to my man "Nam" for donating his fingerprints via a lot of hand sanding...



They will be spraying sealer and paint tomorrow! (jams, firewall, and underside)

Final paint has been applied on the firewall, jambs, underside, rockers, and trunk. The shop needs to spray the dash and then she'll be headed home for assembly by weeks end.

Not the best pics as the flourescents in the spray booth were still warming up (it is only 12 degrees here!)...

Lookin' good Phil.
12 degrees ? Is that silver paint or ice crystals on your 'bird ?

[69TAPoser]

Well, it's rolling so we can get it out of the shop by early next week. The rearend that is underneath it is temporary (the stock one) which will be replaced with 3" DSE drops springs and a Ford 9" as soon as I get it back. The wheels and tires are for transport purposes only.
