Thanks for the tip. I'm now armed, bought a vicious watch dog, electrified the fence, welded the nut to the hood bolts and plan to sleep in it from now on.

A few hoods are still around. I have seen them in junk yards. So many of them were replaced to make the older ones look new that they are few and far between. I love the eyebrow hood too.

(Remember: Look...no touchy ! ) lol

Re: 1960 GMC Suburban

Got to work on the Burb over the weekend. Getting so close to paint. It has taken so , so long. But since the work is being done outside and is at another location, timing is everything and lack of money is everything else. A couple of friends helped out and we got a lot done. Also working on the interior parts.

My Brother-in-law is staying with us for a short while and loves to work on the GMC so I brought all the interior parts home and he has been sanding and cleaning so most are ready for primer and paint. Hope to paint this beast in the next month. ( But I have been saying that for a year....)

Working away on the Burb. Got the brother-in-law to help with the interior parts cleaning them up for primer and paint. The before's and after's says it all.
