Re: hood damage !!

Mr48chevy;

Thanks for the offer;
I will just have to take some really slow time on the hood.
I'm not much of a body person so slow will be better then fast for me.
The fenders will be wire feed welded,again slow work.
The radiator frame I how have on the project will have to be modified to fit the fenders,more fab for me to do.
The longer I looked at the project, the more I wanted to do the fenders n hood.
Just have to stop n take the time to work out the dents n the fender repairs.

Re: hood damage !!

I had my hood split in half, it's pretty easy. You need to remove the trim on the top, then the front hood latch brace and then one on the back. Then grind the heads off the rivets that hold them together and done. When I put mine back together I used #10 machine screws.
