You guys are doing some top-shelf work there.

Really nice attention to detail.
Love the results. Congrats.

Brock,
WOW...you've put some serious work into that thing. Nice!! The hoods that I have here are in much better condition,now that I see what you actually have. It appears that you have a lot of time in the hood already. I'll get you some pics of what I have. If you want one,it's yours. Centerpoint performance has "some" of the requested parts. Talked to Larry Skolney yesterday. I am emailing him the list and will get back to you on the prices. Again...just want to say, you do some really,really nice work! Tom

Ditto!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great work guys.

Thanks Guys, For all the nice coments I should have everything that we have ready to go within the next couple of weeks.Im afraid things are going to come to a hault,till we get everything we need for the build.Its like Don said in a earlier post we need to have everything ready for the build date,So i will keep plinking along till i run out of stuff to do.Thanks Brock

[SKNOWCAT]

Besides what appears to be a first class sled build, I have to say that you did the best job of sharing the build process that I've seen. Fine job.

Hey Brock,
Hows this hood look...?

[atomc40]

Details,Details...Bet ya can't guess which critter is the ass.

That was good Tom . Now we need to get these guys woke up to get these parts .

[skoalmint]

Looks Great from here Tom!The one that i am on is allterd in so many ways that it is going to be hard to make it look like it should,(like NOS).I can make the hinge bracket look like it was never torn off easily,Cracks on the back easy!We will get it figured out one way or another.Thanks Brock

The '78 hood hinge is an issue most of us are looking at, most of them are broke, cracked, bolted on, or something.
You'll be providing a service to the group if you can demonstrate that fix.

[atomc40]

The crack on the back side looks much worse in the close-up picture. In reality,it's pretty small. The rest of the hood is 100% factory original. No garage repair jobs. Very light,compared to your 60 pounder. I'll get it down there, one way or another. Perhaps it's about time for a road trip.

Thanks Adam for your donation it is greatly appreciated.Tom thanks for the hood,I cant wait to see the look on your face when you pick this hood up and feel the weight dif.Let me know when you can get down.The re attachment of the hinge bracket is pretty simple,the hard part is getting all the old stuff out.I will take some good pics as it goes back on.Thanks Brock
