He's still doing the final stages of the trunk lid, then it should be time for primer/sealer, then paint.

All we're doing with the hood is painting it top and bottom.

Here's the hood.....I have three scoops for it, all being painted the same body color. I figured I may as well paint them all. I may wish to add carbon fiber to one, or not. But if I want to mess one up, I'll have two left to fall back on. Center of the hood is from a '72 Torino Sport.

I was told yesterday that the trunk lid is basically finished, and the Sport is just about ready for primer, then the good stuff happens after that. I'm ready to get her home, replace a few parts, install the new trim, replacement door, hood and trunk seals, and go drive it. It's been 5 weeks. Hopefully done in 2 weeks.

I'll bet you're right !!! I started getting itchy after a week without my Bird. Now, 5 weeks later, I think there's light at the end of the tunnel. It's taking a while, longer than expected, but, worth it. I can't complain. I'm trading my 5.8 I had stored for the Sport for all the work. He's done a  ton of work.

Oh, I agree. He's doing all the panels, bumper covers, door and trunk jambs, underside of the hood and trunk lid, and he is fabbing the spoiler on the trunk lid as well, plus, painting all three scoops for the hood (One to use, and two as extras. I have them, might as well paint them)., two gas lids, and an extra trunk lid, and to top it off, he welded the c-pillar holes, trunk emblem holes, and radio antenna hole. All gone. Smooth. I am keeping the engine bay black for now. Painting that would require way too much, but, I actually like the black. I may paint it later on down the road. We'll see what happens.

That's a ton of work and the one off spoiler is the icing on the cake
