Take a deep breath and C to 10 - 67 hood on a 69

[tattooedblue]

Ok, so I have been spending a lot of time working on my 66 Mustang lately, but I have not completely neglected the truck..

Ever since getting my 69, I have wanted to switch out the nose to a 67. I just like that whole sloped look better.
Then I found out just how proud they are of the 67 hood and grille, not to mention I would also need all the trim, fenders, core support, etc...

I had been watching Craigslist for a 67-68 hood, and finally found one for $50. It was rusted out at the front lip, but I would not be needing that.

I took both hoods, and cut the front supports out of each one.



then welded the 69 support into the 67 hood (tacked in place here)



Then of course the 67-68 hood is too long for the 69-72 trucks, so I cut the front 1.5" - 2" off the hood.. (started at 1.5", then trimmed back 2 more times until it fit)



Now, I have the sloped hood of a 67 on a 69.. A hood that should not be
I have about 1.5 hours into this one so far..
