Not trying to be too critical but why do all that work then fudge the details? how about removing the wiper motor before painting the engine bay? With little details like that not addressed I wonder how much care was taken in prepping the engine bay for paint.

Otherwise the car looks like it is coming along well, I am feeling your suspension setup, and props for doing the work yourself.
