Wow! Yours looks awesome!

That is a great color. It’s as close to red as you can get but still be orange.

Thanks! Didn’t mean to take any focus off yours, but outside of the exterior sheetmetal and a few interior parts, we’re working on the same car. Mine is a 4 speed as well. Wish I had all your options! I am adding tilt, I’m taller and it’s hard to drive a stick shift without it.

All the pieces are painted now. Now comes the long awaited reassembly!

Looks great. Are those rechromed or new tail light housings? Do you have a nice fuel door? I have an NOS insert (Mercury crest & surround) if you don’t have a nice one to use.
