Looks great and I assume it now runs great. That is quite a laundry list of items you addressed.

Nice car Craig. I am a Mustang guy myself
Restored a 1966 convertible about a year ago. I have a 1970 Mach 1 in the barn waiting to be fixed up starting next year. I bought it in 1977 when I was 16. Put a 6-71 blower in it my senior year. Fun car.
 
Here is the Mustang I fixed up. Finished it about a year ago.

The territory that I cover for work greatly expanded last year due to staff reductions and as a result my commute has gone from 5 - 30 minutes up to 3 or 4 hours. I am lucky in that it now includes a drive through a national park and many days I pass by some friends. I'd very much like to see what some of your commutes look like even if it's a 1 hour drive down a freeway or just a short walk from the porch to the barn.

Here are a few pics of the characters I frequently pass by...20201209_152126-01.jpeg

Good for you Tony. That is a time consuming effort. Maybe still flowing for 1 more week. DM
 
It's a bull snake. I moved him to a safe location, as my wife was shouting warnings to the both of us. They went something like, ' if I catch you eating eggs in my chicken house, I'll stretch both of your hides on the barn wall'. The rest of the rant I didn't get, as I was moving fast with him...
He don't know how lucky he was that I found him first. You don't mess with my Southern girls chickens. DM 😳
