Yeah I know, it wasn't the proper colour, but it still looks ok.  The hood still needs a little more work to be perfect yet, but I haven't got the time to finish it right now.

You know what would make that hood look perfect? Vertical slats to replace the mesh. That would tie it in with the grille all that much better. Nice work. The cowl has more rake than I'd have gone with (who am I kidding, I never liked cowls) but the fab work is pro.

kinda looks like a ramp with scoops in it but i still love the idea of it. i have desided that im never going to like a cowl on our cars because none of the meet my standards of how i want them too look and i will never get one done if i try to make one cause ill never be happy with my work. the slants might look good... might bring too much 80's into it though, just my opinion

Yep, it is from ebay.  I had a line on it way before he put it up on ebay, just didn't have the cash, he called me after he put it up and offered it to me for a good deal, but someone had placed a bid on it.  I placed my bid and nobody offered another bid, so I got it.

Best thing I have done this summer.  I will be pulling the motor soon and swapping in the HO.  I got my ass handed to me by a '94 4.6L Cougar lastnight, so I cant let that happen again. LOL.

Are you planning to put a rear spoiler on it?
I actually think it would be a nice complement to the hood.

I'm sorry, while I appreciate the work that went into it, I'm just not digging that hood at all. 


It totally detracts from the lines of the car.

Been thinking about it, but I am waiting to find a nice spare trunk lid incase I dont like it.

Yeah I will be there Chris, gotta show you this thing in person.:evilgrin:

I will probably make just a plain cowl hood for it soon see how that looks.
