Dropped the car off at the body shop this afternoon to take care of some things.

With the car at thee body shop for some final details, not alot I can update. I did work on some carbon fiber repairs to the dash so it can be painted & airbrushed. I changed from the Racepak IQ3 to the Holley 7" dash which meant the display opening needed to be filled in. Also while fitting the dash initially I notched too far for the X-brace so that needed to be filled in as well.

A couple small projects taken care of. Front & rear glass and trim has been installed. Was able to get a brand new OEM Ford windshield and cleaned up the stock rear glass since that isn't available anywhere. The side moldings were also installed this week.

I have the car entered in the East Coast Indoor Nationals in December. Not sure the car will be ready...

The body shop has most of the trim installed. Starting to really come together. Also have the headlights glued in place.

Hey Wayne, I’m pretty sure I got these headlights from Oracle. They are setup to use a replaceable H4 bulb so I can use incandescent or LED drop in H4 bulbs. They also have a blue halo ring which you can’t even really see when the light is off. They look very much like a stock headlight assembly.

That's one sexy little Fox Body.
