Looks good! Will the hood come off separately or is it a one-piece setup? Who made the bumper for you?

Looks good. I definitely like that front end. Not sure what I think of the cowl, but never been able to figure out a good looking cowl for us 60-66's.

Looks good. I may have missed this somewhere, but did you have all these parts made or are some of them bought?

Re: Pics of my front end

It's being put togeter as a 1 piece. I also am not huge on cowl's, but, I have to run it with my setup. Same company made the bumper. Same company made everything. But we will discuss this at a later date..

They haven't glassed the hood on yet, but I like th 1 piece tilt idea the most. Easy and I don't have to worry about a big gust of wind making a kite out of the hood.

....Plus the "tilt" will allow you ease of access to the engine.

With Winter & the El Camino "fixer-upper" I picked up the C10 project has been on "hold" for awhile.... and will probably stay that way for awhile.

Looking forward to seeing how you "mount/tilt" it.
