Guys, I am embarrassed to admit that I kinda forgot all about this thread.
The project has been completed. Here's a few photos of the final result.

Mike,

Better than new; simply stunning!

Kube, thanks for bringing up this thread again, that is a beautiful car as the others have already noted. Now, I guess, I will have to go through this entire discussion to review the process again.

Typed letters and or words somehow don’t convey…..what DavidG said x3. Mike I only hope I can produce something close one day. Congratulations on completion of this coupe.

It's ok, I guess.

Ha ha no, Mike, it looks fantastic and it's a credit to you and reflects all the hard work you have put in.

I love that the barn supports all the different levels of the early Ford hobby.

Mike's perfection and my kludgery.

Mart.

Great job, I can't imagine finding all the correct colors and parts to do a job like that.

Every additional view in Folkestone Gray highlights the dark details that many of us need to know. Black on black is tough by comparison. I'm off to a difficult start as the extent of cadmium in a word buried in second rate zinc is not understood in time. Grateful Kube shared again. Fred A

Kube's work makes me want to tear mine apart and start over! Amazing work Kube. I wish I had seen this thread before starting my project.
Thanks again for all the great information.
