Must of been hard to make that first pass with the sanding block. I've almost done it to mine before. Hand started shaking, started to sweat. Just couldn't do it! lol

Too bad you weren't doing this couple years ago. My dad had a NOS fender still in the box from 67. Can't go wring with one of those! So are you going metallic red, candy red?

The lighter red will be more forgiving. You going white stripes still? Silver would look good with that darker red.

I see that ur really set on striping it again. I like the color combo but IMHO don't stripe the valences. Stop them on the hood and the deck lid, round them off so they don't look like infinity, and please don't do the roof. Jmho, I know u didn't ask for it and I'm sure u don't give a shit what anyone thinks, but I think that it would b more of a stand out paint job that way.
Shuda painted the Coug red too ![[Wink]](wink.gif)
Edit: arrrgh! Fkin auto correct drives me crazy!!!

im very excited for you, i have been following ur posts with ur stang and coug ... and like both very much. glad to see u can do ur own body and paint, something that i too have been learning. i have a 67 that is just about done, and will introduce it to the board soon. seems like ur one of the olders in the crowd ... (like me ...almost 40) and have a great appreciation for the older rides. cant wait to see it done, as i thought it lookd tight as it was .... new paint is always refreshing on the eyes.
