Re: Really. Not liking the aftermarket.
Jmking9 the hood molding my chevelle is anodized aluminum not really shiney isn't yours the same. I have a nos one but I put an aftermarket one on . No sense using nos on a restomod. I have a stinger fiberglass hood on her now. But to the point the repop is almost as nice as the nos piece. Slight difference in color of the shine. Looks a little bluish if that makes sense. But the repop brow moldings are the same. I have pretty much all the trim nos. Been collecting pieces since 1984. Buddy keeps hounding me for the wheel opening and rocker moldings.
This is where I'm at again with the car. Lost the # 8 piston last fall. Still have no idea what happened it just imploded on itself. Thought it hit a valve but no evidence of contact with valve train. No evidence of detonation either in any of the cylinders.
