Heres one I have in the works right now, I had to put this back in the box becouse I flat spotted the door, with a file, well anyway, pretty much sums it up, the last picture is where she sits right now, I'm filling in the tops of the rear fenders, henc the flat spot on the door, and plans to move this "Kill'r" a 572 BB dual blown engine, Who ever said there was enough power?, PLease guys give me your feed back, and ideas, I would like to hear them....

Thanx Bill, I like to post like this, becouse it give's other members a chance to thro an idea out there, and it helps me to decide if I should go one way, or another, like the fender ducts on the front, I could show all the way's I went, to get to the one's that are on there, but I wont, to me there is still something about the rear, I dunno but there is a lot of space from the light to the outside of the car, I'm thinking, vent holes, I dunno....

 Mike, I like what You have going so far! What did You use to sand out around Your wing on the rear deck? I have a '68 Mustang that I stalled on because of the spoiler I puttied onto the rear deck.  I like the custom body work, for me, it adds an "individual-uniqueness" to the build. A "personal touch!"  That bow-tie on the rear is nice!! Keep it coming! ;D Thank You for sharing Later Russ

Russ, believe it or not I used a round, and half round jewlers file, to shape it, then hit it with some super fine paper, I dont know what grit, it's paper from testors. it comes in like a six pack, and its really thin plastic backed, u can wash it out too, also used some stuff from wal-mart, thats like a foam back'd sand paper, none the less it took hours, I will post shots of the upper rear fenders, here in a few, using the same tools....
