awesome update:
went to the shop again today, took at look at the car and there should have not been so much bondo on that thing:

i think who ever was laying the bondo, was a noob and probably getting taught or something.

the panel is hardly pushed in, so they dont have to do that much pulling out.

and the front of the car:

more updates on monday!

hahaha sorry man. ya i was so damn tired, i was watching a movie and fell asleep during it.
but you have to definately help me with this brake situation.
for all who dont know whats going on with that.
when i had my axles changed, i noticed at low speeds my brake would go EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE lol, it was really annoying. so i propped the car up and i changed the brakes pads on the front wheels. drove it again, and it was STILL going EEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeee at low speeds.
so i'm thinking its the brake pad retainer. (shrugs)

thankx for all the compliments guys!
really makes me feel appreciated!
its taking a lil bit cause they are also doing insurance claims on other cars. so there will be more progress towards the end of the week for sure.
you should see this one mustang, its a newer style and it was in a serious accident. the whole frame is twisted to the right, the firewall is all rippled. so they got a donor mustang and they're gonna switch it over to the other one.

FINALLY an update! lol
misha and I went and checked out the car, i think he was getting a little weak at the knees when he seen it, whimpering like a lil puppy dog. lolol anyways. they cut out that nasty rust.
here's the main welder/cutter bob (bob the builder lets say)

looks pretty good for a condition.



i also took a shot of the DIRTY engine bay!
but thats just from the sanding and ****!

anyways. more updates tomorrow, the new patch panels will be welded in. so i'll be taking more pics!
i'm waaaaaaaaay too impatient for this car to be done! lol i want her back so bad!
