Re: Tell me what you think

What was your procedure for doing this?? I did this once with a hood on my old 72' 4x4 with a 3-4" fiberglass scoop. We riveted it to the existing hood and fiberglassed and bondo it, but it wound up cracking not to long after. Not much you can do when the hood vibrates as bad as these old hoods do. You can use the new adhesives that they make for fiberglass bonding which I hear great things about, but I don't think there will ever be a way to keep it from cracking around the edges. You are doing a good job, and I don't mean to be a debby downer, just sharing my luck. That and the overhang of your hood scoop, might interfere with opening the hood as it might hit the windshield when opening, but not sure. Trevor
