Now that the basic frame has been built and fit, it's time to cut the aluminum strap that will "sandwich" the mesh. 

The upper and lower straps are just a duplicate of the one's you already cut. 

Building a custom tail light panel or grille

I have been reading Hot Rod magazines since I was a kid, well over forty years ago.

I always wanted to customize my car as I built it, not only the motor and chassis but also visually. 

Sometimes you just have to do the work.

 I've been doing a lot of mechanical work on my car during the last couple of months. 

One of the most fun aspects of fixing up an old car is making visible changes and improvements. 

Rebuilding the chassis or brakes is important, but who's gonna know? 

Well I went to Ventura on my trip down south and visited  National Parts Depot.

I picked up some items that I needed and I figured I could save some money on shipping.

Well I've had my Mustang for almost a year, eleven months to be exact and there has been a lot of progress.

Once I completed  wiring up the relays for my headlights I've spent most of December test driving the car then driving it to work and on errands. Just like a real car. 

Happy 2015!

It's a new year and we all look forward to doing a better job and being  more successful.
