Do the whistler mod in the same color as your manta stripe.

That looks great IMO!!!!

Is that a factory hood or aftermarket? If aftermarket where did you get it?

Looks great! I like everything but the "Catfish."

'69 SS emblem centered on the billet grille perhaps?

Looks good but I'd at least put a silver grille on instead of the black. It clashes a little to much for me.
