I have done a little body work and sanding it down.
It will be ready for paint shortly. Hopefully it will be painted this weekend.

You mind describing how you sanded the car. I'm a bit interested especially since you only got down to the primer.
Keep up the good work btw!

I have a couple dewalt sanders that I sanded the car down with. First I did 180 sand paper then I am going back over it with 320. Then I will wet sand the car down and start spraying some primer sealer.

She is done. Still needs to be buffed out again and detailed but for an open garage and not a paint booth I think it turned out really good!

Thanks for the kind words on the paint job. Yes he is keeping those rims. He has two fox body stangs both are completely stock all the way to the air box to the silencer.

Looks good!
He should let you paint the turbines if he is going to keep them...so they match that nice new paint.

One of my buddies bought the car from my uncle and wrecked it three weeks later. I fixed it for him and he has done a few mods to it. Wild strawberry is a bitch to get the paint to match. He wants the whole car repainted next year when he gets a new hood.
Here are some pics:

the truck lid we took off all the luggage rack and put on my old 2006 gt spoiler. I think it looks pretty good on there. We also added the smoked fog lights, headlights, tail lights and a set of ponys that I had laying around. He does want to get a set of chrome cobra r's for it. Under the hood he picked up a trickflow intake, powerdyne and soon Kenny will be doings some powdercoating on this stuff.

That looks like a clean convertable. The paint turned out very nice. I had a 90 GT that was the same two tone color but I painted the entire car the strawberry. It really changed the look of the car.

Well My buddy decided he did not like the 2 tone paint so off to plated the car went. The car will be done tomorrow so new pics will be added then.
