79 Mustang project U/SA

It's been a long time, so it's time for an update. It's been too darn hot outside to work on the body work but I have a body and paint class i'm taking at the end of the month to make sure I'm doing it right.
I got my block and crank back form the machine shop so they are ready to go. Also got new pistons and rods for the motor and the heads are almost done, so I am making some head way.

So you and AL Mack are going to attempt setting the record in the high 11's

Good progress,Robbie.
Is Tibor doing the heads? Haven't talked to him in a while.

No Mark he was a little high priced for my budget. Mike Graham is doing them.

Right now she is way UGLY. I am sanding off all the cheap Macco paint so I can get a good base to start with. The car will be painted like a 79 Cobra without the hood scoop and stickers.
