Almost Done

OK...finally finished wet sanding & buffing. The over the tops are all painted on, only the side stripes & snakes are factory decals. I took her out today to get some new photos. You will also notice that I removed the ugly side scoops. I just didn't like the look of them, especially from the front.

Thanks! Just got home from the MCA Grand Nationals and got a 1st Place for my 1973 Mach.
There were a couple of awesome Cobra II's and an unrestored, and beautiful, King Cobra. Maybe my II will be show worthy someday.

My very first Mustang was a '78 302.... I had so much fun in that car.

I've had my '77 Coupe since 1988, it's gotten progressively quicker over the years. Currently, it has a 332" stroker with 530hp at the crankshaft. I've been playing with initial timing getting it to idle a little smoother, it seems to like 20 initial/34 total. Throttle response is decent.

Hopefully she doesn't sit outside all the time.
