This is the fun part, putting it back together with new shiny chrome parts.
Looks like I at least temporarily lost the argument about the bumpers. The body shop forgot to spray the bumpers chrome before the clear operation. We discussed what to do for now and the first thing is it will more time and most important Mary said she likes it better with the bumpers orange. I agreed to try it for now.
Called about the grill today and found out the four outside bars may be done Thursday or Friday.

Almost ready for the first car show in months. Took a short ride to take pictures and on the way back the C/B for the fuel pump decided to quit several times. More work to go now.
The grill is still not back from the plating shop but should be close.

Looks like the fuel pump went bad and is drawing more than 20 amps. Tried a different circuit breaker and a different switch, same thing. The pump would run for a minute or two before popping the breaker.Called Magna Fuel on the pump. They think a bearing is going bad causing a high amp draw to pop the breaker.
Had to park the 55 again, what a disappointment. The Mustang needed the exercise anyway.
