      I installed the brake lines under the car and Buddy made sure I did it right.

      I just moved this out of storage and will start working on it so that we can race it sometime in 2014. Still not sure what engine or Super Stock class yet.

      My plan is to race in one of the SS/GT classes so I ordered a 427 fiberglass hood as a Christmas present for myself and it came in today.

      I had to trim about a 1/4" off of each side and a little off the back block sanded and epoxy primed.





      I had the headlight bezels polished and he now has the grille

      I block sanded the fiberglass hood and added a little filler



      Sprayed a couple coats of SPI Turbo primer

      Today I block sanded again and sprayed two coats of black epoxy primer. I will paint the hood red before I'm finished but it will be awhile.

      Steve Baur the editor of Modified Mustangs & Fords picked up the Fairlane to take it to their shop. While there they will be writing tech stories for future issues as they are installing the Painless wiring harness, Autometer tach and gauges along with a Flaming River steering box, column and steering wheel.

      There has been a lot of people laid off at Source Interlink magazines in the last week and Steve Baur was one of them Friday. Not sure what will be done on the Fairlane now.
