Ya the ford boys still don't belive she's an 8 cyl. even with the hood up. They think the 8 is an aftermarket install

Great idea, Tadd! Do you think a period correct knight crest would look better? I mean, 'it's not your daddys monte' so wouldn't an old school crest look a little out of place? Just a thought...

I thought breifly on it but I really don't care for the modernized crest. I do like some of the retro looks on the Deuce (I added a NOS 1985 Monte dash badge on the Duce. The 06 and 07s had no dash badge at all)

I kind of roll on my own.... parts of the Deuce are old school and others are diffinatly not.

Gotcha - Either way it should look good for sure. Looking forward to seeing it.

Default The deuce is hoodless

Gary Glenn and I took the hood off the deuce and I left it with him @ Artragious studios.

He had some good ideas on how to paint it. It will be 3D in apperance and freakin awsome. He liked the idea of the Monte Knight crest and was excited to get working on it. He said in all the car shows he has been at or painted for he has never seen a Monte crest painted on the inside of the hood. It will hopefully be done friday.

Am sooo stoked to get it back
