----Really cool, Tim! I have to say that I like your hood scoop much better than the one pictured. That one looks like the hood off of Bill Cosbys Cobra. Just personal preference, I guess......Bill S

I agree on the hood, Bill. That's the Super Snake hood and it's a bit too much.

Here's a repair of a rear brushed aluminum panel after a tire came apart. How they fix this damage and make it look perfect with no paint is beyond me.

These guys are real craftsmen. I'd love to see a video of the original AC factory making the bodies on body bucks out of sheet aluminum. My understanding is that 2,000 manhours went into making a body.

Man...impressive isn’t the word to use! 2000 hours?!?! It’s inspiring and something to aim for with my 507 for sure. Thanks for posting it up, Tim!
Cheers Dave |
