Been out of the office over a week sanding until I have no fingerprints left, but our fastback project is finally wearing its top coat! We still have to cut and buff the clear, but overall we're very happy with the outcome of both the body mods and the paint work.

The color started as Ford's Dark Shadow Gray Metallic and was tweaked by the paint supplier, Auto Body Color & Supply, and given the cool name of "Ghost Gray Pearl Metallic" Auto Body Color supplies the paint products for all of the Power Block TV shows...

Hope you guys like. Now, should we keep the 4.6L Three-Valve we've already fit and dolled up, or switch to the Coyote? :evil:

You can name the car BOSS Eleanor

Picture the bugging eye balls when you open hood

Sorry Presto, but the engine mounts/crossmember are already setup for a modular engine, plus this car is for my son (18) and he doesn't need a Boss 429 of ANY horsepower, let alone a Kaase built one! LOL

Oh, and while we used the E-car's wheel flares, it is NOT an Eleanor. Different colors, no side exhaust, no big bump in the hood you can't see around, and the gas filler is in the right place! :p
