UPDATE -

Well, the car is no more, was rear ended while at a stop light on my way to school, driver was travelling aproximataly 30-35 mph when he hit me, and forced me into a wall on my left.  The car is totaled out and non - fixable.  The entire unibody is bent, the shock towers are forced into my engine, the impact was hard enough for me to bend my steering wheel and my foot cause my gas pedal to bend around the bolt going through.  Will post some pics when I get the chance

UDATE - Well, to turn a lemon of events into lemonade, I just purchased one of my dream cars, a 1965 Mustang Fastback.  It originally had a four speed, but the previous owner snapped it and through in a three, so I'll end up swapping my five speed in it soon, along with my 347 that had only 128 miles on it since it was put in 6 weeks ago.  Will post some pics of it as my second vehicle on my profile.

Here are some photos of my 66 Mustang as of August 2004 before the restoration.
Here is a shot of the front left fender

The engine is a 71' 302 with a 2 bbl carb out of another Mustang, at this stage it is quite ugly.
