Thanks, all; glad you find an old fourdoor worth watching. I'm pretty happy with the way it's turning out. After all those hours of either bending or kneeling I felt like a 90 year old man when I got out of bed yesterday. I went to visit my son for most of the day and didnt do a darn thing. We're heading to the playoff game after church today; Go Cards!

Getting close; got all the holes filled and sanded and a guidecoat of primer. Should be able to get a few coats of high build on it tonight and then wet sand and color on Saturday.

Thanks! Some days I feel 60; problem is I'm only 45!
It took a day or so for my back to recoup. It gets cranky sometimes and I have to give it some rest. The game I went to totally sucked but we took the last two from Washington. Hoping we close out the series today!

Your right, Dave. A clean looking engine bay is always a plus. I painted the firewall and dash today. I let my grandson pick the color and I like the way it came out.

Looks good Falcon!!! Congrats to the color selector, too... Sure looks a lot better then the standard black, the contrast with the frame rails, engine,and accessories, will give everything a lot more definition!!!!!Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!

Yeah, sometimes the imagination and spontaneoty of a five year old can be a good thing; he just knows what color he likes and doesnt worry about trends. I think it's cool; I never would have picked it myself. I think the whole car will look great this color when I get around to painting it.
Today I took out the old rotten headliner and doorpanels, wire brushed all the crud off the inside of the roof, and got the column painted. It's not going to have interior for now, just some kind of seat to sit on and something on the floor. Maybe some rubber mat material from Rubber Cal.
