Re: 47 drop top

if you do this make sure you have something else to do as well. this will take alot of patience. to keep from warping the hood you can only lay a half dozen tacks down, and walk away. and i mean walk away the longer the better. let it cool down completely and then go back and tack it again and walk away. if you don't you'll find out real fast what i'm talking about
