Mustang complete

All cutting has been done on the Mustang.
I am sure to have some touch ups and tweaks as I move forward but for now the Mustang is done.
No more wiring was torched on the drivers side like I did on the passenger side lesson learned.
I even had time this weekend to test the measurements on the front end on the Mustang.
After taking what seemed to be hundreds of measurements on the body of the car I really payed little attention to the front end thinking that once I finished the Mustang I could just place the three parts from the Cougar  and make sure they fit this would confirm My measurements were correct.. I removed the front tires as I will have to fabricate the front fenders the Cougar front end is four inches longer than the Mustang.
So after using snap ties and pieces of wood I could find in the garage the next thing I know the Cougar front end is on the Mustang and it looked and fit great. One other fabrication i might have to make is the opening of the hood, there is no where to put the hood hinges so the hood might have to open in reverse like the Corvette hood but I will get a second opinion on that before I make the final decision.  
I hope things go as smooth with the Cougar, time will tell.
