There are still some deals out there....

I have a VERY good painter.

Think he would be interested in doing an old Mopar or two?

[Rreemo]

It's done now - http://dfwmustangs.net/class/showpro...fastback&cat=4

For all those who have asked, this car was painted by Mark Preus...he is very good at his craft, and a great guy to do business with....HIGHLY recommended, and I don't say that about too many painters.

...I just hope he'll be ready to take on my truck later this year when we are done with the bodywork!

[Baba Ganoush]

Do want.

Props for getting it done, it looks good.

You take a '46 Ford truck in trade?

Very nice. Must have missed this thread the first time around.

[Cooter]

very nice!

Thanks guys. I've got a couple people interested already....one happens to be the daughter of the original owner (aunt to the guy I bought it from). However they aren't really car people, and mostly into it for the sentimental value to their family. They also don't quite get what these cars are worth these days, and how much it took to put it back together. It's not my intent to rip their head off, but damn...I'm also not in the business of giving away hundreds of hours of free labor either.

I understand the sentimental value, but I'm actually trying to discourage that one....they won't know how to take care of it, and I'll be getting calls every time it needs something. Don't really want to sign up for that.

I've been watching the fastbacks for the past few months and they seem to be bringing really good money again....thinking of giving it a shot on Hemmings or maybe even Ebay in the next week or so.

EBay is probably your best bet. Put it on there with no reserve and the vultures will go nuts.

Man, this is the motivation I need to re-do my Mustang. Thanks for inspiration!

Also, back in high school I had a 1966 Mustang 289 4-spd convertible in Emberglo. Me and my young dumb self sold it for $7500 fully restored...man I wish I had never done that. I miss that car.

Nice work

The paint looks really good, love the color.

[BLAKE]

Looks great! Hope you get a lot for it.

[46Tbird]

That car turned out really nice. Don't just give your hard work and money away, especially to someone that has very little appreciation for what it takes to take an old car to that level.

[yellowstang]

Fucking nice! I seriously just thought about selling some stock and buying it! A bit more than I wanna spend tho, but it's really fucking nice looking!

[cool cat]

Looks very good. Are you bringing this to Forest Lane Saturday?

[4bangen]

I love that color!

[bcoop]

Beautiful paint work, Mark!
