Here are some pics I took today [12/16/08] in daylight. Hope it shows the actual color(Spitfire Orange)of the car better than the earlier ones in the garage under bad lighting!

Got the front bumper installed. Coated black urathane and no rub strips. This pic on the left makes it look like a Volare SuperCoupe. Can't tell its actually a LeBaron until you see the taillights. After the new 360 goes in, that's the view most people will get, the taillights!

I tried mounting the rear bumper, also black, but the filler panel was too cold to flex. It's rubber and the bumper fits up underneath it. It's as cold as steel and wouldn't move!

I have to really heat up the garage for several hours to get it to soften up so it doesn't crack the paint when installing the bumper.

Still needs the trim mouldings around the windows and the rear view mirrors. I'm detailing those now. The quarter window trim is installed. Those are body color.

The dual snorkle hoodscoop is in process of restoration too and that will be painted the same color as the hood when installed. It is the same scoop that the factory used on the 73 Dart Sport. Also popular on Dusters, Demons and Volare's

12/19/08, here is the driveway that just a couple days ago was clean and dry as seen above! We got about 3 feet of snow overnight! Good thing the important cars, the Mopars, are safe indoors! The daily driver Fords sit outside in the snow, unloved! The Mustang wont be going anywhere, any time soon in this weather!
