Exclamation New products from ANVil



We now have for sale, our new "Bare" first gen cowl induction hood that is only available in 100% carbon fiber. It weighs only 17 lbs. and has a perimeter frame only on the underside. It retails for $1499. We also have 2 styles of vent delete cowl panels; with the recessed area and without (smooth). Both styles have wiper holes which can be capped off if desired. We need to make a new mold for a wiper delete, so let me know if there is enough interest, we will make that at a later date. These new cowl panels only weigh @ 1.5 lbs. and are priced at $249. Call us on our toll free number
(888 723-8882) to order before they are up on our web site for the whole world to see.

Best, MaTT

Wink

The 2nd gen Camaro stuff is starting to be molded.
Chevelle, Nova or Mustang will be next depending on which wheel squeeks the loudest (hint, hint, wink, wink). So far, I think it's '70-'72 Chevelle.
Sorry this process takes so long.

Default hmm

well the shear numbers of 64-69 mustangs out there just dwarfs the camaro numbers so it would seem to me to be the next logical choice

well that and the fact i want one for my 66 hehe

also would it be possible to do a shelby style nose lower valance and a set of fenders etc in CF

you see i have a custom inner fender well on my 66 and would like cf fenders .

this is a good example of what i mean here is a pic of the top of the inner fender panel




as you see its smooth across the top of there and the front core is tig welded to that.. i would like a fender copy with just a 8th inch lip that i can pre drill holes along that in .. then when the fender and engine compartment are painted i can just rivit the fender down along this edge instead of having the huge ugly bolts that are stock.

Matt
I hope this is'nt a dumb question. I want to have all gaps on my car 3/16 . My question is, are the edges around the perimiter of the hood thick for sanding. My reason for asking sometimes when I do these hoods for customers I have to sand the edges and they get to thin. And then I have a structural issue . I always said it would be nice to have it a bit thick so that you can sand the edges to achieve a nice tight gap and have plenty of material on the edges left to keep it structuraly sound. Would love to have this setup for my 69

Thumbs up

Doom,

Sorry it took me awhile to post a reply. Been busy makin' patterns for new stuff. We didn't leave the edge thick for sanding, it's more for structure, but if you wanted to, you could certainly add some body filler to the edge after roughing it up to close the gap as tight as you want, then paint it body color if you were going to paint the top side of the hood (& maybe leave cf stripes). I would suggest using the fiberglass filler as bondo would chip too easily. Since you have a shop, you might have a better idea. Would love to hear your suggestions.

We plan on making Mustang parts next. You're right, there are a lot out there and it's the next natural progression. For your project, could you use a strip of carbon fiber sheet, say 1/16"-1/8" thick and just wide enough to dress up the flat top edge? If you want full on carbon fiber fenders, that would be costly and time consuming to produce, but I have a lot of Camaro guys asking for that. Let me know your thoughts, I'm not quite clear on what you want to do, but I'm all ears.

Best, MaTT
