After mocking up the lowered front end, the flipnose would not flip!! It was too low so I decided to leave it alone!! As for color, it will be some sort of orange with tan interior!

Okay, managed to get some paint work done today!!!! Sprayed with HOK Sunrise Pearl. Yes it has been cleared, needs polishing now! The interior is done with this suede spray from Hobby Lobby! No trunk lid, it feel out of my hand as I was putting it in the food dehydrator!! I will finish the trunk lid later! Well, here are the pics:

Made a little progress, got the interior finished, and the motor wired!! All that needs to be done now is some odd/end motor work and put it all together!!

Looking Awesome Dennis..... I love that color. What did you do to the wheels? I like the dulled down look they have.

Thanks Eric for the comments! I have plenty of this paint. Would you like some? Anyway, the wheels I sprayed with Testors lusterless flat, then with masking tape, I went around the rims and pulled it off! Here are a few shots of the motor:
