Default hood opinion, and paint

Well I know I have way too many projects but what the hell it's just money. I'm keeping the 68 camaro and sending it to the body shop to get re-done and painted. My question is I have 3 hoods, flat hood, SS hood (chrome louvers on top), and I also have the cowl hood(from my 69 another project). What hood should I use on it? also what color scheme should I do?

thanks thats sounds like I might have to photo shop that one and see the outcome. Was also thinking flat black but the paint not the primer. or white with black stripes.

Personally I loved the cowl on my 67, and the additional clearance you will have with the cowl. Heres a few pics of mine

yeah you're right but you kinda don't see the SS hoods on them any-more. Why did you sell it?

At 16-17 with football, girls, partying, I didn't have the time to work on it and making $7.50 an hour I was going broke... between brakes, suspension, interior, and every single other little think that needed to be replaced

I made out pretty good on the sale though, made about $4500 more than I paid for it a year and a half earlier....
