Gold Dust Red Mustang

The body restoration is pretty much complete! The job is outstanding and the car looks stunning in the high gloss red and gold pearlescent mix.

We took these pics after a drive up to Montville, fairly late in the day.

The car was parked ready to go at the panel beaters but had picked up a fair amount of dust waiting in his yard and by the time we got it up the mountains there was a fine coat on the horizontal surfaces.

All the same, the mustang attracted long looks where ever it went and lots of smiles inside and out.

The colour looks very different in changing light, if you take a close look at the rear quarter of the rear end shot, you can see the gold fleck. If you click the pic, you get a bigger version.

I think I shall call it the Gold Dust Mustang.

The next job? Getting the cooling system sorted, better start with a fan shroud to get more air through the radiator.
