repairing and painting hood
(this was done back in april 2014)
I started the process of filling the holes the previous owner put in the hood to install hoodpins. While I'm at it, I'll be adding stripes from www.vettestripes.com . Here are some pics of the progress. I'll be accomplishing this at my friends shop law dawg restorations here in orlando. http://www.corvetteforum.com/forums/...406_164727.jpg http://www.corvetteforum.com/forums/...406_164917.jpg http://www.corvetteforum.com/forums/...406_173149.jpg http://www.corvetteforum.com/forums/...406_174000.jpg |
More pics. Hood comes off tonight to go into the media blasting booth. Last pic shows a sealer application. Did that so it wouldn't absorb moisture while I drove it home last night

Also going to fix the hatch as the clear has all but completely vanished. I did buff it out just to make it look Ok last week.
