Never saw this thread but I actually like it. Only issue I see is when it rains water will drop right on the engine and manifolds but as far as looks I think its cool. Nice job

Sorry the only update is that I sold the car. Still have the hood and will work on it. Just got my welder back from a friend so hopefully if I can get the garage heated up, I'll work on it through the winter.

Unfortunately no, it's still sitting around in the garage loft. I may get to it but working in the garage in the winter months is brutal. Also I have no car anymore so it's not a big priority right now. If anyone's local, you're welcome to have it and finish it. Seems like I only have a bit more to do, I may just do it to prove I can finish a project haha

Sorry guys I never followed through with the project after I sold the car due to financial hardship. The hood went to the junkyard when we moved out of the rental and moved in with the inlaws.
