On your mini-tub job did you move the inner wheelhouses flush with the outside of the frame rails or did you scallop into the rail?

I cut away the lip of the outside frame rail (Where the factory spot welds were to the pans) and made it flush with the main channel.

Brian,

You are amazing. Is that spray booth at your house?

Yep, I built it in the new side of the shop. Sure makes it nice to spray.

I am reviving this old thread to post my updates on going forward. Started getting the engine compartment together this past weekend and it is looking very nice.

Check it out,

More details on this please! I think I will try to build a booth if/when I ever build a shop. I've debated whether to save money and buy a used booth or just build one. I even thought about planning ahead and building a pit in the floor to make my own downdraft. Probably overkill for the 1 car I would probably finish every few years. At my current rate, that's even dreaming.

The Mustang is looking awesome! Keep the updates coming

I went through the same decision Brandon on weather to buy a pre made or build. My main issue was having it fit inside the shop while keeping the exterior of the addition somewhat uniform to the rest of the shop and house.
The Exhaust fan and plenum location is what sealed it for me and I just built my own. I am very happy with it and there is only a couple things I may change which is sinking the lights into the walls and install a floor drain for the water.

The fan is a 14,440 CFM unit I picked up from Grainger and I just fabbed up my own plenum to fit the exhaust filters. Overall it works great and I am very pleased. While I would have preferred a down draft the cross draft does what I need and will only see a couple cars a year so just take the extra time to make sure it is clean and the results are great.
Also I only have about $1500 in materials total to build the booth which includes the Fan, Filters, Lights, Studs and Sheetrock so that was a big factor in the decision as well.

We'll have to talk whenever I get to that point. It may be a few years, so don't hold your breath.

I'm definitely jealous of the amount of work you get done. Do you sleep? Keep up the good work.

Made some progress recently but is slow due to all the detail work required with such a custom build. Engine is wired and fired again so really close to being able to drive it again.
