I went to Ford to find the clip that holds the rear bumper near the tire at the top of the bumper cover. They looked for 30 mins and they could not find it in there diagram. I was pissed, it still hangs out. If you find an extra one, I will pay well for it ! -B.

I'll check around and see what I come across. Have you tried to get them from Bill Jenkins?

Here are some pics from today, before I reworked my ill fitting exhaust. I got to the point of fitting the mufflers, but ran out of metal blades for my saws-all Stainless eats 'em up! This time, the mufflers are going to sit much more flush and higher up in the bumper cutouts.

Excuse the useage of blue tape Once I have my car functioning the way I want, I'm attacking the aesthetics! Note: No lense is installed yet. Custom and police/DOT friendly LED turn signals






A craptastic night shot to show how freaking bright the parking lights are and how well they function with the projectors.

Nice work on the lamps, maybe a light coat of niteshades to make them blend a little?

Closeups?

No closeups until I have my CF panels installed that replace the mod'd OEM reflectors. I also need to install my lenses once they're polished up. Should be within the next week Good idea on the nightshade, but how much do you think it'd cut down on the reflectiveness?

Oh yeah, I need to install my sidemarkers too

My rear reflectors still work fine with niteshades. It doesnt block as much light as you think it might.

Looks good, Daymon. Looks like it's coming together nicely. Looks like it's a lot of odds and ends, but that's usually how it goes.

Did you get a new place? That driveway doesn't look familiar...

No, I have not, I will get ahold of him.

All I got to say is dang ! Your car looks incredible ! That is a work of art when its done. I would be afraid to drive somthing that nice. I love that hood, it sucks that it was so hard to get and cannot get it anymore. I really want a different hood. We have to meet in Grand Junction and put your's, mine and Kingpins all together for a photo shoot. -B.

Thanks guys, I'm itching to put it all back together! Now that she's running very well, I'm just working all the tiny bugs out so I can put her back on DD status.

Derek, I was doing my exhaust work at a friend's house that is secure (alarm isn't installed yet ). She can cook all of the different types of Mormon funeral potatoes, and does so regularly..... so I can be found there quite often I'm renting an apartment until I can get into another remodeler, or I actually relocate to Colorado.

Randy, you might be able to get one of these hoods by wither buying someone's spot or maybe even get a fiberglass version. NorCal is a standup guy and I would do business with him again! A picture shoot has been on my mind for the meet too
