I think I already asked that? So many questions so little answers. I heard JB weld works.

Looking great. I can't wait to see this one all done and shined up sitting in the sun. I'll bet the pearl looks fantastic.

Re: New Pics Of my Resto

Man that is looking awesome!
Love the stock paint scheme and stockish color, jazzed up a bit.
I am doing the same with mine but in Sky Blue.

Not a big fan of painting the engine the same as the exterior, but

(ps How about a shot of that 67/68 Mustang)
