Title: started building a custom Fox stang hood today...
Post by: 1WLD BRD on March 27, 2009, 04:45:47 PM
I was bored today and decided to graphed the scoop section from a Turbo Coupe hood onto a stock '87-'93 Mustang hood.  I have no idea why I am making this as I dont even have a stang...  so I will probably be selling it as soon as I am done.

Here are pics of the progress so far:

There is a guy with TC scoops in a Gen III SHO too. Plus you have/had the MN-12 with them. They flow well with many cars.

speaking of making kits... why not replicate this hood with fiberglass?  tell them "it decreases under hood and intake temperatures, and its fiberglass so it's lighter than your steel hood!"

just a quick update guys, I finally got off my a$$ and decided to finish this hood today.

well here it is so far, just waiting for the primer to dry so I can block sand it and put one more coat of primer on it, then I can paint it.

It will be painted door code 2D - Med Scarlet.  then it will be up for sale
