Well if any of you looked at my old old thread from a couple of years ago you know that I was just now able to make it home (out of the military) and finish my hood.

So long story short I did all the fab and welding getting everything as close to right as possible for the body shop. And today thank you to Stephen at Unique paint and body in Carrollton KY working wonders with a little bit of glass and paint the hood is complete.

I know some people don't care for the look but in my opinion if it sports an SS badge it should also sport an old school style cowl hood. none of this reverse cowl fast and furious vent hoods stuff.

at the moment I'm content but i am contemplating something for the hood like a stripe or design and am thinking of the lettering for the side of the lift.

Here are some pictures of it in the driveway I'll go for a ride this weekend and find somewhere better to snap a couple pics.

 

Been waiting for this day to come

nicely done

Surprisingly looks really nice on our short little hood and it's yellow!

 

looks stock which is good, so i like it

 

Looks good!

 

doesnt look bad at all

Me too. it's been a long time.

 

Looks good. I would have just merged it into the existing hood lines though.

 

yea thats my only thin.. the pinch from where the cowl and normal hood meet

 

very nice, hope you get a vendor or seller to buy

 

lol well you're more than welcome to give it a shot.

I think the pictures don't show the way they blend together all that well. the nose smooths out nice and the back turns up in the cowl pretty much the only way I could make it without and english wheel and rounding the whole peice (which is not what I wanted)

 

OK, brb in a few years...

 

liking it so far. more pics needed tho! lol. some diffrent angles would be nice.

 

Looks good, nicely done.

 

i like that alott

 

Wow I didn't think it would turn out so nice. 

 

THATS MY OLD HOOD !!! for real though

Looks great. Always wondered when you were going to finish it..

 

I think it looks pretty clean.

 

it is indeed! Yeah afghanistan and normal army bullshit kept me away from the work. bet you never thought it would look like this.

 

Looks great. My only thing is. At the top of the cowl it looks a little square for such a round car

 

No I didn't. Awesome job again. I would deff buy one.

 

X2. And some further away shots to see how it flows with the whole car. But so far i like it

 

Looks pretty sweet man... Good job, be interesting to see if vendors grab this up or not...

 

looks pretty aggressive. i like it .

 

yeah who knows. If they actually wanted one I could make another one out of my old hood. but if not I'll just be the only one.
I don't even know how the process would go for them purchasing one to make a mold out of it. but if anyone is really interested by all means let the vendors know and I could have another knocked out in probably 2 weeks after agreement of cost and reception of deposit.

 

ok some more pictures I could get a little farther away this time so now you can see.
