I was trying to figure out when you took those pics, but it looks sweet as hell outside. I have only seen it lately parked in the garage... just like its big brother Roush.
And I'm sure this box of parts you are waiting for won't be the last ones you need.
And now for a set of tags, inspection, and emissions testing. Maybe we can classify this somehow as a Farm "Truck" to bypass emissions testing...

They were taken last monday night out in the backyard. Other people caught in the act were Josh W, Chris B, Chris R, and Liz. I have the center caps in the garage somewhere, they will go back on shortly.
I like your idea Tom with the Farm tags. I need to investigate the whole street rod thing. _________________ 99 Roush Stage III Mustang

Found this on the MVA FAQ Section while I was looking for something unrelated.
Quote:
Does my vehicle qualify for historic or street rod plates?
Historic:
· The vehicle is 25 calendar years or older and has not been substantially altered, remodeled, or remanufactured from its original construction, or
· The vehicle is between 20 and 24 model years old and is a model, of which the manufacturer produced 1,000 or fewer models for that year, as verified by the manufacturer (supporting documentation required). The vehicle has not been substantially altered, remodeled or remanufactured from its original construction, or
· The vehicle is between 20 and 24 model years old and is a make that the manufacturer no longer produces, as verified by the manufacturer (supporting documentation required). It is not substantially altered, remodeled or remanufactured from it original construction.
Street Rod:
· The vehicle is 25 years old or older and has been substantially altered from the manufacturer's original design.
Vehicles classified as historic or street rod certify the vehicle will be maintained for use in exhibitions, club activities, parades, tours, occasional transportation and similar uses. The vehicle owner further certifies the vehicle will not be used for general daily transportation or primarily for the transportation of passengers or property on highways. You will need to fill out the Application for Historic or Street Rod Registration (form # VR-096) and supply all necessary documentation.

Well Hot Damn, the 'Ol Girl cleans up reeeeeeal nice now doesn't she?
Great work on the cleanup and the pics look great. Did the new fog lights that you ordered from 50resto mount right up to those stock brackets? And did I read that right about having the window mouldings... all around?

Yup they look like OEM factory fogs and match up perfectly.
We have moldings all around, I should have gotten some better pics of them. I will do that today. They were still a bitch to get off even with the right tool. Chris fought with them for a good hour. Perfection takes time, he didn't bend one of them! _________________ 99 Roush Stage III Mustang

Wow Steve that cleaned up real nice. So glad that the car is coming together nice. Looks much ebtter then it did in grey ghost form. Do you happen to have any pictures of the engine bay. I guess soon it will be time to set up a picture gallery for the car. What else do you need to complete before you can get it tagged... Keep up the good work.

Looks fantastic! Now you'll have a Mustang for car weekend in the fall! From the pics it looks great, but I'm sure it will look even better in person. Good luck on Friday getting the once over and then after that getting through inspection. Can't wait for a ride in it! _________________ 2000 Trans Am WS6, 1993 Mitsubishi 3000GT VR-4, 2003 Yamaha YZF-R6

I just noticed in some of the pictures that on the door jams it looks like a bit of red is still peeping through. Did he not paint the door jams that great or something. Also In the one picture it looks like there is some paint on the tail lights. Are these still the old tail lights that were orginally on the car. Oh well it still looks great and I cant wait to go cruizing with you in it. Hopefully all of the inspection and tag stuff goes good. This car has been off the road way to damn long....
