My good buddy Gregg ( gregg1970 ) showed up this morning for a hood installation session. Weather was sunny & beautiful, and we had a good supply of tape and lots of sheets & towels for paint protection.

After some head scratching moments :o and endless checking & re-checking, we turned the last bolt about 4 hours later to an almost perfectly installed hood. ( as good as it can possibly get, as far as we're concerned! :p )

Gregg was super patient, eagle eyed, and even fussier than me! We were both wondering how to fix various little problems as things went along, but we learned alot and once it comes time to help out greg with his '70 SS, we'll both be further ahead of the game for our experience today.

Thanks very much Gregg, couldn't have done it without you!:thumbsup::):beers:

Cool. I need to find/hang out with the fellow chevelle guys around here so I can check there cars out and compare notes.

i'm going to be putting doors, and fender and hood on soon, feel free to swing by and lend a hand anyone;):D

Hey Dan. I had a great time yesterday. Did some male bonding with a fellow Chevelle owner and learned something at the same time. Next is the front bumper. LOL.
