Very good point he did a great job laying them out.
The hood and the stripes turned out very very well, nicely done!

Raining here today, so this is the best for now. I like how this one is rounded on the back instead of flat like the one on my white Z

mockingbird812 07-20-2018 07:24 PM

Yep, that'll do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nailed it :worship:

mr.4speed 07-23-2018 01:15 PM

Looks killer

mockingbird812 07-23-2018 01:47 PM

Be still my heart!! Wow you nailed it: stance, tires, wheels, bar, hood. It is a nice complete package. Do you have spacers on your front wheels? I like the way the front wheels look head-on.

markinnaples 07-23-2018 01:51 PM

Perfection.

markinnaples 07-23-2018 01:53 PM

You need to share that on the 70's Street Machine pages on Facebook; everyone will absolutely love it.

chevyandpontiac 07-23-2018 02:54 PM

No spacers on the front they 15 x 5 wheels.

Ok. thanks - I assumed they were "skinnies" and that probably misled me!

Turbo70Camaro 07-23-2018 04:48 PM

Wow that looks sweeeet, how about some tow tabs?

Astock 07-23-2018 05:24 PM

I agree with the tow tabs, but they need patina, rather than fresh paint.
I personally like homemade TT, and they don't have to be functional. The set I have (for my car) are the same color as your t-bars.

chevyandpontiac 07-23-2018 05:40 PM

Thanks for all the compliments!
My next plans for the car are

Crossram intake
Headers
Shifter
Gauges
And yes tow bar tabs

Just picked my headers up, they are ceramic coated white, (7 year warranty).
These are old Appliance headers with the 4 bolt flange.

big gear head 08-14-2018 07:34 PM

Nice. I wonder how hard it will be to clean oil off of them if the valve covers leak. I'd love to have white headers, but always worried about keeping them clean.

chevyandpontiac 08-14-2018 08:10 PM

Ceramic coating, should clean right up. Besides that old cars never leak oil. LOL

Postsedan 08-14-2018 09:42 PM

Love it!

Looks awesome! excellent job. My car is not as nice but the best looking hood in my opinion on a 2nd gen

RPOLS3 08-15-2018 12:49 PM

Looks great!

chevyandpontiac 08-15-2018 01:15 PM

CPC in Cresthill IL. they charged me $300 for the sandblasting and Ceramic coating. plus a 7 year warranty.

big gear head 08-15-2018 07:43 PM

I wonder if they can strip old ceramic coating and recoat.

wheelhop 08-15-2018 08:58 PM

I'll have to try them eventually, a lot of places in our area wouldn't do the white coating for me, especially with a warranty.

The cross ram is on and the velocity stacks fit under the hood. Now just have to start making things fit.

Postsedan 08-16-2018 01:09 PM

Check out the Alternator Clearance :)

D2SS Rocks!

Dan

markinnaples 08-16-2018 01:16 PM

Just really cool looking.

big gear head 08-16-2018 02:36 PM

That looks great! Where did you get the hood springs?

chevyandpontiac 08-16-2018 03:30 PM

d&r classic in warrenville IL

scuncio 08-18-2018 01:05 AM

Those headers look great! I may have to ship a couple sets to them to do in white.

Postsedan 08-18-2018 02:30 AM

I can`t wait to see what color fuel line you pick out :)

See you tomorrow :)

Dan
