Title: Hood part number
Post by: Shelbypat on April 18, 2019, 12:38:35 PM
Hi all. Any ideas how I could get back my hood part number ?
Previous  body man made a rough job and sand it out as it has been touch at front long time ago. Hood still has potential. Just a bit bowed as usuel.

The short answer is to make a mold using a hood that still has the numbers . After you make the mold and produce a positive of the engineering number you then graft that into place. There are various ways to accomplish the end result.

Tks for inputs. I've ordered silicone mold kit. I'll try it.
