Sheldon Not on the Canadian Prairies they're not!! Way to go Bryan. Now you need that special hood!! Thanks Robin, you know ONLY too well it's been a long wait for this one! When the budget is tight and the exchange (CDN to US$$) is sitting @ 25% + the cost of shipping..etc..etc...etc... I was VERY lucky to come across this one in Canada w/53,000 original miles! So, yes I do need that "Special" buldge hood! Came across a few but shipping is always a pain! I have no problem w/leaving the flat one on it for now. I plan on doing this one is stages so I was thinking of getting it road worthy with the engine bay painted (FC-7) and looking as it should w/painted engine etc. The rest of the car will come along in time... All I know is it's put a smile on my face...

Canada	Well, I've been collecting parts since the last month or so... have new/repo front and rear arm rest bases, front & rear seat covering (white), drivers side (remote) & passengers side mirror, 4 speed hump, under hood washer bottle, battery tie down & used 4 speed pedals, shifter box and mint white sunvisors......... but the best score came with the help of a fellow member here..... a BIG thanks out to "magnumcharger"... Robin found this "Buldge Hood" yesterday and knowing I was in need contacted me first thing today. The hood had been sitting inside for almost 20 years... and only 1/2 hour away!!!! I made arrangments to see it this evening and bought it. So, now one step closer!!! So, I should have updated pic's of the Coronet soon....
