Re: 1967 step side build!
The biggest problem was the aftermarket hood. The fit was off everywhere. I tried and tried to make it work. I cut and welded the rear of the hood to get the cowl gap even and flush. The front had the wrong radius so it didn't match the fender slope. I tried cutting out the inner support to allow me room to pie cut and weld. I finally just give up on it. I'm sure someone can make it work but it just wasn't worth it for me. 68gold/white came thru and gave me not one but two original hoods. When I bolted the stock hood on it adjusted out in minutes. I'm using Eddie Motorsports hinges. I think I'm going to make someone a killer deal on aftermarket hood if somebody needs it.
