That hood hole got a bit bigger! Which intake are you using with the adapter?
That's a full on makeover. That paint and bodywork looks great. I can't see even a hint of a ripple. You've got me beat by 5 years for length of ownership.

Thanks Doug.. I have a air gap on the adaptor with QF 780VS. Yes its a bit taller than my C7-F intake. The hood was a NOS pc. I didnt tell him what i was going to do LOL. Scoop is the Mercury CJ,GT,Eliminator. I did all the sheet work my self. I am in BC Canada.
