Best looking GM hood ever made. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Steve, are you heading to the POCI show next month?

There is something more than just vaguely feminine about the shape of the scoops on that hood. Maybe that's why guys like them so much. It's a great view from the driver's seat. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img]

I am going to the Performance Years open house this saturday in PA. May go to the TA Nationals in August. Dont know schedule yet, with daughter getting ready to go off to college. That takes precedence.

I also have to teach her how to drive the manual trans in the Formula as I promised, before she heads off to college. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]

....and then replace the clutch....

She's painted! Now awaiting curing, color sanding and buffing.

I think I will just keep bringing him one panel every few weeks and trick him into doing the entire car...or at least from the doors forward. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img]

Just got back from the Performance Years Show in Hatfield, PA. It was about a 100 mile roundtrip. The car ran great and the A/C was blowing cold. 700 miles on the engine as of now.

A local friend of mine brought his Quetzal Gold, 72 455HO, four-speed, A/C equipped, Formula and we caravaned there and back.

The new hood is on and the paint looks much better than the rest of the car...now what do I do?
