Nice progress, I just dropped mine off at my cousins body shop last weekend to do the same thing. I'm going down there this weekend so I'll post some pics as well. I just hope we don't find too much wrong under the paint!

Hey MikeF...nice to see another SVO owner in the local area......
2002 Roush Mustang, Griggs GR40
Yeah, pretty funny that we both have an 85 1B too.
Got some updates. The lighting in the paint booth is not the greatest but the color is Oxford White. The hood is an aftermarket fiberglass piece I purchased from Late Model Restoration.

Lookin' good.Oxford white is one of my favorite colors.Should look amazing once you get it out in some natural lighting.
Thanks guys. I am hoping to get some more up to date photos soon. I am heading out to PA to pick it up on the 7th of Jan. So I will snap a ton of pictures when I get it home before parking it in storage.

Looks like she's ready for a test drive! Beautiful!

One thing I will really give the shop props for is getting rid of the bi-wing sag. They reinforced it internally and repaired/reinforced the mounting tabs so I would not have to put in wing supports. Looks much better this way in my opinion.

That sure does look nice! I'm a purist at heart, but I never liked the SVO stock rims that much. Those later year ('99) rims look right at home! Keep up the great work.
Now about that window tint.
Very Nice!!!

Yea the window tint is going to go. Its been on my list for at least 7 years, some PO installed it and I am sure in the 90's it looked great.

Thanks for the responses! I will give a shout out to Wolfes Collision in New Kensington, PA. They are the shop that stripped it down to bare metal and painted it back to stock. They took the time to ensure it was all done properly so it stayed SVO correct and did an amazing job.

looks great! The white looks so nice on SVOs.
I will let the pictures tell the story. The runs were hard to get a picture of but there are at least 5 noticeable ones, the tape lines are really bad for the trim, the paint is visibly thin in some areas, the nose is a different colored white, there are random off white splatters under the clear and after my first drive(when I discovered the rag joint and brake lights) apparently the spoiler wasnt tightened down because when I got back he first thing I noticed was my spoiler all cracked up and that the screws were very loose. The shop failed to roll the fender lips which was part of our agreement and they caused quite a few small but irritating issues with my car, such as when they were testing wires under my dash I found a bunch of wiring broken off at terminals to include the wiring for my brake lights :s, there are interior pieces missing and the rag joint is completely broken off from them pushing it around the shop without power steering and there is much much more little crap like that, just do not want to type it all.
