I played with the new hood hinges today.
getting all the gaps to line up the way i want.
and drilled the holes for the hood pins.
New hinges look nice but didnt come with the correct shocks.
Got it sorted and they are in the mail.
few more pics.

Awesome hinges. I wish they would drop the price on them. I just can't pay that kind of money for hinges..

Default update on my project

I HATE bodywork.!
Finaly i have door and fender gaps i can live with.
Ive come to the realization that nothing is quite perfect.
The tub was sprayed with a few coats of 2k hi build primer
left side and roof blocked out nice..right quarter not so nice.
working on the doors. while waiting for primer to dry completely.
a few pics.

Back came out nice....front has a small problem....yellow tape.
The rest of the body is geting quite nice...straight.
