And some folks would like to know how this puppy started before the roller job...

The original hood was hopeless and beyond reasonable repair. So I slapped a fiberglass dual port functional ram air on. They arrive in a white gel coat ( and that is what you see ).

I had taken the car to three body shops to get a quote on painting the poor puppy... and they all came in at $4000... ( so the car sat untouched for two years until I stumbled on this message thread and decided to give it a try ).

I was thrilled by how the car turned out and at the saving of $3750...
