    Another item in need of attention was the wiper motor, I changed it out to a later model 2-speed, added intermittant switch and timer, then relocated the motor inside under the dash, where ford shoulda put it originally, there is plenty of room and it cleans up the engine bay as well.

    Looks awesome.
    Your metal fab work is very impressive.

    Are you also doing the paint?

    Got some painting done, the doors and the fenders, will be beautiful once I buff them, painting it in pieces so there wont be any paint edges in the jambs.

    a few outside pics, looks like crap, BUT, once its buffed and all together, should look pretty good(fingers crossed) Also one of the dash and cowl top buffed.
