bonvo Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 sweet that will be bad ass and your throttle is already cable operated so that will make your life easier making a linkage setup work would be difficult though i suppose you could mount the carbs sideways that might make it easier Quote Link to comment

Phlebmaster Posted March 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 I think since the flames are now gone...I am going to put glowing BRE stripes on her. :D How wide should they be and how much space between them?? Quote Link to comment
Phlebmaster Posted March 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 I am considering trying my hand at a little fiberglass bodywork. Who here has done this and what should I look out for? Any advise would be very nice. lol :D What I need to do is hide the spacing from the bottom of each side of my hood scoop right where it meets the hood...the front I will leave open.. How much over sized do I need to go with the fiberglass? :D Quote Link to comment
420n620 Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 (edited) if you use fiberglass, it will crack where you joined then together. Try stitch welding in some medal strips and take your time so you dont warp your hood. it will be time consuming but the final results will look --- factory. :lol: I think thats going to look pretty neet when ur done w/ it what ever you do. havent seen a datsun cowl induction hood before..

Phlebmaster Posted March 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 Ok, that is good to know. I guess my truck is a little past ...."factory" at this point. :D I will see what my other otions are then. Thanks!! Quote Link to comment

fisch Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 That's some creative thinking right there Aaron! Way to think outside of the box! Quote Link to comment
hessianben Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 Man! I rarely see a hood scoop I like, but something about using the truck's own body line looks soo good! Nice work- that's a great idea!!! let me guess... more smurf blue?? hehe.... seriously, the truck is coming along great! Quote Link to comment
