It's kinda hard to see the dimension in the pic. Hers a better angle. It's just roughed in 36 grit.

I cut the body down the middle 4.1" dropped suspension 5" and added air bags, loosing another inch from tire & rim. Total 10 " so roof top is at 40" from stock which is 50.1" I also shortened the body by 8"

Buddy, that kind of continuity of design is gorgeous. I think you hit it out of the park when you can make a change that feeds off the mustangs own original ideas.

Thanks man, from you that's a great compliment. I spent an hour or so last night going over your build pics. What amazing work . Im impressed with much of the work shown on this forum. Glad I found it and proud to be part of it. I'm so afraid of fiberglass, lol , if I can't bend it and weld it, I'm lost. That gooey sticky wet stuff freaks me out. I don't much like finish body work either so getting into a tough part of the build for me now. Just taking it slow and easy.

Like the grill,lights and scoop just looks tuff. For what ever reason i am getting a aussie xc coupe vibe from the whole front but much leaner and cleaner.I do like the suggestion of a shaker. Good work mate been waiting for new posts on your build.

Wow, don't need any wine tonight, got a fibral buzz, man that stuff is stout, even with ventilation and a mask.

I would imagine that rear window area would be the toughest location to be doing bodywork. Looking good! :wavemulticolor:
