Default hood done part #1

well, after about 3 months of working and playing around with the damage hood I got from a junk yard, it is finally done. I just got it home on saturday after a super paint job. I hope to get some pics up tommorrow, if the weather is good, it has been raining here in Pa for over a solid week and a half. so, hopefully I can give you guys some before and afters this week, but check out where it started at.

for a 150.00 I think it turned out great, but you guys be the judge.

so part two to come hopefully tommorrow.

I want to see it when finished... that will be the real judge of how good it turned out. But it looked to be repairable.

ruff 280's, I was told that I have the only set on the east coast so far that has them, but that was in march, I waited over 5 months to get them, so I guess it was worth it, I ordered black chrome centers, but this is which showed up, so I took them, for a discount. I thought they were to gansta at first, but they are growing on me. PM me and I can give you the info.
