- I am Currently restomoding a 71 Fastback. I designed a wide-body kit for the rear of the car and a more aggressive front nose. The back of the car is 6 inches wider than stock to accommodate the 315 on 12 inch rims.
Lol. Thank you gentlemen.

All the old paint has been cut off the car. Housing for the lower driving lights have been grafted in below the front bumper. Ivan is forming my chin spoiler out of one piece of aluminum, one side at a time. Here 16 hours yesterday. Today looks like a repeat. Done by midnight.

Also cut out the rear diffuser openings so we don’t have a parachute effect happening on the highway.

Thanks guys. Rear quarters permanently mounted and left to cure over night. Tomorrow we hit the body work hard. Still on schedule for primer by Sunday barring no surprises.

Filling, shaving and gapping
Wow, I can really see the look you're going for now. Can't wait to see it painted. Sweet!

Thanks guys. From this to that in 6 days. If I wasn’t there matching my new friends minute for minute I wouldn’t believe it was possible. Taking a short break while They both go back to their day jobs. More to come.

So I’ve pondered at least 5 or more colours but the one I chose wasn’t even one of them. Hopefully it’s on soon. I’m open for business on the 22 of January and I’m hopeful it’s done before that. I need to have all things having to do with dust and solvents over with or my waterbase finishes on my entry doors will be compromised.

Pegasus is white with grey stripes. Foose did pewter and charcoal and there was one at the locale MOTERAMA SHOW that was orange. I can’t do any of those colours.
