Mid 60's Mustang 3 row....So far so good...have had it out in mid 70's weather and runs around 190* with driving it for over an hour...I'm sure I can drop that temp down...running a 190* thermo right now!!

I have aprox 10 months of actual build time into this...bought the body in Oct 2008 and car was drivable in dec 2009...I did not work much on it May -Sept 2009 due to rotator cuff surgery

Just about a 50/50 mix of Rustoleum FLAT BLACK and GLOSS SUNRISE RED...give a semi-gloss type of finish. Car looks more BROWN in the pics but is really a very dark BURGUNDY shade.

Now that I've been driving it ...I'm getting bored

.....She may be for sale soon so I can finance the next project! I enjoy building more than driving! Time will tell!!!
