Lots of nice details in that picture: dual exhaust mounting holes; seat belt mounting plates; brake line for dual exhaust bracket; differential bumper mounting plate for 9 inch axles; axle bumper mounting bracket; sound deadener. And Shelby specific: traction bar mounts; brake duct holes. Nice. You ever think of going into the restoration business?  ;)

Forgot to post this one from a few weeks ago.

With the other projects in Jeremy's shop, it's been a while since I've posted an update on the restoration of 6S933.  

Here's the latest as he tackles the restoration of the doors.  Click here (http://blog.virginiaclassicmustang.com/2015/01/just-details1966-shelby-mustang-gt350.html), the link below, or the picture to see lots more pictures.

We finally have another update on 6S933.  It's being glass beaded, so it can be put in epoxy primer, so we can get it off the rotisserie and get 6S033 back up there to do some painting!!

6S933 is just a super nice car!  When it is completed, Jeremy at Maple Hill Restoration plans to show it a bit for the customer.

 Very thorough documentation. All those pics sure help both with the restoration and if the car will ever be marketed. I know, if I were a buyer, I'd love to see those.  Excellent work. A lot of folks have no idea just what it takes to do a proper restoration.  6S933 will be one of the best on completion. Thank You for the pics.

In the picture you posted to the thread looks like the headliner installer left their mark (number) as we often see.  The 7 on the driveline tunnel

AHHHH! I need the dewpoint to stay about 10 degrees below aproximate finish time of blasting so I can get some primer shot on...NOT a fun wait!

Great series of pictures!   Oh yes,  if all we had to deal with was surface rust!  ;)  What a clean car.
