Chad,
It is about time you posted pictures to share with everyone. I have seen the car in person and Chad has done a great job on the restoration. He painted the car himself with a little of encouragement from me. I know he was nervous but I think he was happy with the end result. Wait to you see the car with the rims Chad has picked out! They are going to make that color pop! I am looking forward to seeing it at the local cruises this summer. Chad how did you make out with the wet sanding???

That appears to be a hardwood hood. Trying to fit mine on my 69 and having not too much luck. Just wondering what issues you had if any when you had it on. Beautiful Color

It is a harwood hood. The problem I had was the softer springs . The one side held fine the other droped about a half inch with hood open and caused the hood to go crooked and rub on fender .Everything else fit realy good but not perfect the hood to fender gap is a little off and I got a lot of time into lining up the gaps.

Looks very very nice. Looks like it was shot right where it sits ( orange on the floor). Another beautiful garage paint job ?
