These pictures are hard to see cause of reflection, but this my homemade fiberglass hood....can't wait to see it on car. We rose the middle so we could put scoops, then put a slight rise over cowl area.

I had another project for a friend, and finally getting back on my own car.
I got the tail lights apart to restore, chrome grills are out for powder coating blackout, and received some parts from WCCC. As I restore the housing, I used a paint from SEM called Aluminum Chrome, to restore the reflective parts behind the light bulbs. Not sure what other folks use, but this paint looks almost exactly the same as factory....What do other folks use?

Been awhile since I been here, car just needs alignment and plates. Oh and the windshield wiper motor is not parking.
But I did make it to the car show last weekend and it got a lot of compliments...
I was also able to get the spoiler I saw when I was in Cypress for Cougar show (Kat Brown?).

I've only done three test drives around the neighborhood. It seems to drive great, and turn on a dime...stays flat.
I opened it up wide open once in second gear just to see if any hesitation, boggs or would accelerate cleanly....It was incredible! This Coyote pulled so hard, and screamed into high RPM without missing a beat.
This week it gets alignment and plates...
