What did you do to your '67 today?

Well, for me, I had been hesitating painting the underside of the hood to body color as I kinda liked the matte black finish.  The darker color sure hides a lot of the imperfections of the bonding of fiberglass to the steel structure.  Once finished I have to say that I like the body color version better and it is now a bit more "original".

Took it out for a relaxed smooth and easy and then violent drive.

Just for comparison purposes, this is how the underside of the hood was painted prior to yesterday and painting body color.

The Going Thing

Who made the hood the hood on your 67? I didn't notice any cuts for the oval air air cleaner in the structure.

To the best of my knowledge it is the original, but I haven't owned from new.  This is on a GT350, and low serial number (#23) and is a steel hood base with fiberglass overlay.

Black/black non-A/C cars, at least mine anyways, are not hitting the streets anytime soon in eastern TN....... I left early real early yesterday morning in one of my convertibles, to go to Cars and Coffee ..... by 7:15 I was already dripping..... not fun.
