Looks good
|
Got to see that Monster on your car :) Nice work.
|
That looks sweet! Is that fiberglass bonded to sheet metal?
|
Now that ought to help get rid of the under hood heat. Looks like a real labor of love there. Going to be one up for sure, nice job...
|
Nice job man! Should look beastly on the Turbo Monte!
|

|

I am told the glue that we used it a metal to fiberglass fuser that will not crack at all. Its the fuser they use to repair vettes and other cars that mold glass to metal. We shall see lol.
|
My buddy had a car with a scoop molded onto the hood and it kept cracking in one spot so he put a vinyl stripe on it. Just dont slam the hood down hard. I cant wait to see it painted.

I wish there was an aftermarket cowl hood for my SS, I luv this style of hood.
I saw ur hood on the FB page,it's gonna look awesome:thumbsup: |

That looks awesome, can't wait to see it on

Looks good! :thumbsup: I have future plans for a cowl induction hood, but I'm going with a lower profile (2.5") steel scoop so I can have it welded to the hood and not have to worry about cracking. ;)

Did you paint it yourself? Can't wait to see it on! no i had the work done by a guy i know pretty well. the scoop was an ebay buy :rotfl: bought a junk yard hood, cut the arch in the scoop so it layed flat with the contour in the hood cut out the functional parts, cut tin to fit the underside of the hood and welded it in, filled all holes, smoothed out underside, molded scoop on and smoothed it out, then painted everything..... very time consuming :rotfl: |
sorry for taking forever i got really busy with work, i left last sunday and still wont be home for another 2 weeks but i did take pics before i left so here ya go! enjoy!

That cowl hood rocks! The outside is as wicked as the power you're putting out in this monster for sure. Do you have more exterior mods in the works?
