Really cool Yenko, but those stripes on the hood look really strange from the front. Are they all that crooked?

Could the edges be &quot;weathered&quot; ?? The inside edges look sort of ragged.

Yes they are really like that, apparently teenagers were the installers. If you look at the side stripes in some places the gap in the center is irregular.

Not that uncommon. Here is the (then unrestored) 69 Yenko Chevelle that Chad used to own. Notice the angle of these stripes.

But ya' have to look at the bottom line -- most folks will look a car and never pick up on the little things ... its when we all get together with the eyes displayed on this forum that items are looked at closely. Not picking things apart by no means -- just sayin' it is a damn good looking ride ... TAZ

Beautiful orange peel, never buffed on or cut. Beautiful original paint imperfection details
