Richard - Quite a post! 3486 people enjoying your plans, the lucky car and you. best of luck on the endeavor. And that beautiful moss green color - the same one I painted my 1950 Oldsmobile.
1968 CJ - Owner and paint original. Dec 67 build in Dearborn. One of 50 135 Cobra Jets. Ford engineering used it for 8 mos. to resolve problems in the 50 early car build. Ford by-passed the normal sign off to get cars to the Winternationals drag race.

In the "Member Restorations/Builds" area there is a lengthy post that shows much of the process and progress that Richard made.  He was brave enough to share the one step forward and occasional two steps back moments.  https://www.concoursmustang.com/forum/index.php?topic=16578.0

Yes, when you hear about the painstaking process a person goes through to accomplish their goals, you don't often actually feel the pain they went through! It is quite a process that is truly never finished but at least the major pains are over with now.

Today, we head over to a local ALL MUSTANG Car Show to introduce the car to a somewhat local club. New friends will be made, I am sure!

Thanks Roger.

...in a field of nearly 300 Mustangs, my 67 took First Place today for 65-73.

I tied for Best Of Show (all years) so in a tie-breaker, lost because of minor smudging on the parchment seats, the winner of that award was a beautiful Hertz GT350H (no smudges on those black seats).

A great day, thanks again all who helped in any way.
