well the molding is coming along nicely. the only problem i had was today when i made a small batch of fiberglass gel to get the corners and i didn't add enough hardener again.

but this time since it was gel i had to spend like 30 minutes to strip the soft parts. but anyways let me know what you think on the progress.

well its been awhile since i posted here but its only b/c my hood looked pretty much the same since last time until now. i finally got it primered and started wetsanding the car.
i took off the vinyl stickers and it looks so bare without it.

i was gonna put another set on but the people told me that i shouldn't put vinyl on until after like 30 days after its been painted and the car show is in three weeks. so i just plan on getting a stencil made and paint the emblem on. well enjoy the pics!!!!

the waves you see is jut dry spots in the primer where i ran out of primer in the spray gun.

I'm still not a fan of that kind of grill but the hood looks really awesome. Clean job!

That's a nice looking bird catcher!

you see the plan is whenever i catch a bird it'll cook nicely on the engine so if i'm hungry i can pull over and have a nice Okie meal.

whenever i put a screen in there it'll almost be like a bar-b-q.

that reminds me of that show, monster nation, where jesse james would go around looking for the wierdest cars people had made... and one dude had a beetle that could cook food on the engine. it was like, 1 hour per pound of meat... i'm sure the taste was horrific, but interesting concept... :lmao
