Re: PO has me PO'd
Looks good Jim hopefully those hoses don't get to much in the way of getting the filter off. Cant wait to see how that hood works out.

Looks like enough clearance, and the hoses now enter through the front of the engine, keeping them away from the exhaust, as much as possible don't know if I'll be able to sleep tonight, as the hoods been a month and a half process

His web site claims 68-72, and we all know that the break is 67, 68 and 69-72, there in lays the problem. I have a 68 front end Guess I'll start looking for a 70 front end or do some fiberglass work fit and gaps are great along the sides and back, have drop off my cowl panel to be painted to be sure it fits well on the back

Re: PO has me PO'd
once I put the cowl vent cover, I could see that it had to slide back. wondering if a different year fender might work better

Re: PO has me PO'd
Well, it's a repro of the eagles/venture hood made in your area, mold made from a original hood in your neck of the woods, Autofab. If you need more info, I'll look it up

Re: PO has me PO'd

Re: PO has me PO'd
Jim,
That looks like a good deal if he still has them. you probably should hold off coming down this way until you make sure about those. I think i read that your 68 core support will work with the 69-72 fenders and hood but you have to add the 69 up headlight mounting brackets to your support. 67/8 headlights attached direct to the support. If he wants $200 for all of it I would snag the support as well if you dont already have the headlight buckets. Richard

Re: PO has me PO'd
Richard, thanks for the info. of the swap. My only concern was being sand blasted, we all have heard the horror stories of warped panels

Re: PO has me PO'd
Sherwin-Williams version of the anniversary gold, spray out, think I am headed in this direction. will have to replace my 68 front end with a 70-72.
both green and gold have a metallic finish, cowl should be finished when I return from my fishing trip [url=https://flic.kr/p/RRXYGG]20170225_110214
