[QUOTE="Black Gold 380R, post: 16586863, member: 70025"] I appreciate the feedback Bullitt! This is exactly why I kept this build thread here. Way more comments here than on the vintage site and this is what I enjoy. Conversation about the build. So, thank you sir! This is my second go round on this build. I have to admit that during the first go round my brother did a lot of work on this car. He shaved the drip rails, the door handles, the trunk key hole, the antenna hole and the bumper bolts (He took automotive and body shop in high school and learned the basics of body work). During the first go round it was like my brother was the builder and I was the helper/financier. We were able to build a very nice Mustang, but it wasn't really where I wanted it. I took the things I learned from my brother and the fact I'm in a better financial place now and this current build is the result. I give a lot of credit to my brother because he has taught me a lot when it comes to cars and he helped me get over my fear of screwing my car up. He always said "It's not broke until you cannot fix it anymore." LOL..... So, I took a plasma cutter and went to town on the front end. Bought a welder and tried to fix what I cut off by adding something different. I feel it is coming out great and with comments like yours, and from others on the site, it reassures me that I'm doing this right or at least I'm heading in the right direction :D. [/QUOTE]
