While I would agree on most of the bubble components, IMHO there are more inaccuracies on Gean's hoods including lack of fixturing holes on the underbrace as opposed to other kits such as Harms

carries the components to make the most convinving replica of an original shaker hood.
If done properly, you cant really tell the difference once you are done.
All the others have things that are off and different than the originals.
I have orighinal shaker hoods, I have a Gene Gregory replica and I also have the kits Resto Rick carries as well as Ben Snobars.....and I have compared them all.

BTW, my comments ONLY pertain to the bubble assembly, not the hood itself.

Is Gene Gregory still making scoops?, I know he has some health issues as of recent.....
FWIW, I know Gene's Shaker grille assys don't pass the "test"....

Gene is 40 minutes from me and he has had several health issues over the last 18 months. Yes he is still making stuff and staying busy doing what he can. His grilles are aweful in my opinion, to much casting flash and finish work. I bet I had 8 hours in each grille doing die grinder work to remove casting flash, then filling casting pits before priming.
