[QUOTE="Black Gold 380R, post: 16492948, member: 70025"] Hello Grabber70Mach. Thank you! Yes sir, this is my first rodeo to this level. I have painted parts before (painted the hood and spoiler on my 03 Vert). I also installed a motor and transmission into this car before as well. However, I have never cut old metal out and put new metal in. I have never installed redesigned parts (meaning going from a stock front set up to a Mustang II set up). I have never welded before and I have never done body work before. Yes, on my hood I had to use glazing putty to fill in some rock chips, but never have I used body filler to this degree. I will admit that I have been planning this build for years and have done my homework on techniques and procedures. I have an exact idea of what I want and how I want it to look. So, I am taking my time and ensuring I'm giving this build my undivided attention. I'm VERY motivated, but if I'm not in the mood I work a little bit and then walk away. I could probably be further along, but I only work 4 to 8 hours at a time. I do not burn the midnight oil and when I get tired I'm done for the day. It seems to be working so far and after seeing it come together this weekend it has renewed my confidence in what I'm doing. I know I'm no expert and when people make negative comments on this build I take it as constructive in order to learn and to try and improve areas where I know I'm weak in. It's been fun so far and people like you, [USER=35549]@01yellercobra[/USER], [USER=16477]@DSG2003Mach1[/USER] and [USER=183643]@98 svt[/USER] who follow this build and provide comments make it enjoyable as well because I enjoy the conversation and feedback (positive and negative) as well.
