Days 4 through 10 ish
So I have been sorting parts moving boxes and trying to make sense of my poor garage. I finally have a walk way around my baby. Since day three I changed the driver side hood spring and mechanism and line up the hood with the body. I replaced the passenger side tail fin with one that wasn't all banged up. I have been trying to get the rust off a real nice Edelbrock air filter, I am about to use an S.O.S pad but I am going to use the Bar Keepers Friend stainless steel cleaner first. Liz my wife and I decided on the colors our mustang is going to be. Eggplant purple with silver stripes. I have a photoshop pic of what this is going to look like. As soon as drill is done I am going to start putting the drive train together! BTW sorry the pic of the desired paint job is kinda ehhh

Day 2 @ 3 Aug 6
Hello all so bringing everything up to speed. I got up early Friday and worked on the driver door I got it to line up pretty nicely. I am happy with it so I am going to leave it alone. Today after drill I pulled my mustang out of the garage and proceeded to clean out all the junk inside. I found a lot of neat stuff. I found an extra trunk and a few pairs of covers for the head lights which I threw on just to see what it looks like. I also fond a few rust spots I will need to repair. My biggest concern however is all the spare parts I have. Before I can really start on the Mustang I have to get rid of these parts I don't need. I have two sets of seats 3 sets of bumpers 2 sets of mufflers etc. I was told I have the parts from 3 different Mustangs when I bought this. After searching through everything the last 2 days I believe it. I also have another problem I have about 2 more truck loads of parts coming including 2 transmissions and a rebuilt 289 I have no room for. So aside from getting rid a few things I clearly do not need, I am going to have to get everything set up to drop the transmission and motor in the car before they come to there new home. Well here are today's pics enjoy.
