    You should show all your cars cleaned up and driving. People will definitely want to see that plus seeing the cars you've built will probably get you more subs.

    I do believe its designed to go up through the bottom of the hood, but your way works fine too

    The part where you're talking about your views for last month got me thinking. If you did some of those vertical video shorts of each car, you might get some views out of that now that they're trying to push shorts. They might also work as a way to advertise the main videos. Just a thought. Hood looks great.

    Clunkers and Classics I have, just like you, molded in a few glass hood scoops. And mine too, did crack on me after a while. You mentioned different ways of mounting them. I want to ask you if you have ever used Corvette panel bond to glue one down? If you have,,,or known of anyone else that has, did it seem to hold up better?
    Oh man,,so sorry about your furrbaby. Man,that really hurts the soul.

    • @sanfordrhudy774
      @sanfordrhudy774 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The turn latch ones . That way you can just reach over to each one and turn them both. Then the spring pops it up.

    The cowl was designed to be fitted from underneath the bonnet my friend. Would have been easier and looked a lot better if you had done that.

    The 5.3 is supposed to be 323 cubes so the 327 badges would have been close to true, but the 427 has the Cool look factor.

    Great minds think alike bro! Lol 😅I was thinking of doing the same thing with attaching the hood last week as you mentioned. Countersink the holes and then rivet and fill. Haven’t finished watching the whole video yet, so we will see how far you get with attaching it!

    70-72 Cutlass you say? Now you got my attention. I owned 2 different 70 Cutlass, one was an "S" the other a Supreme. Awesome cars. The "S" had already lived a hard life from 70 to 87 before I got it but it was way cooler than the Supreme. The "S" has the fastback window and quarters with the sharp wide body line.

    Never use silicone to help bond panels, it attracts moisture and will cause rust!

    Say man, check out my skylark vids. It's a 70 skylark with a healthy 455. It looks better now than when I posted the video, but if interested.. I'd do some trading.
    I'm in northwest Arkansas. Clean title. Original 350 car, but I've got every single bit of paper work from 1970. Good interior, too. Already had GS hood.
