Day 2 at Body Shop. Windshield is out (being replaced with a new one since they broke the old one taking it out - this was anticipated!). New metal going in. Forgot to mention that they have 3 Mustangs in there right now - yellow 1970 Mach I conv. getting new floor pans / green 2009 getting a new hood / mine.

I just think that it is too nice of a car to let it go any further downhill. Not getting a complete respray this time. At some future date I may do that but it could also get a colour change at that point .

Looking good, you'll have some great history shots for the photo album.

Day 5 at body shop. Ready to be painted. Should be this afternoon. There also was a seam along the inside lower edge of pass door that was rusting/weeping so I had them sand blast seal and paint it also.
