Default The Hood - All You All Need to See This !!!

The Guys at v8TV are building this car for Lou.

LSA Powered 69 Camaro -"Lou's Change"
https://lateral-g.net/forums/showthread.php4?t=37183

Just in case your haven't been following it you need to the car is going to be awesome !!

Okay enough jibber jabber - Check out this freaking hood.

Here is what Lou Just posted and I think the hood needs it's own thread !!!!

You will notice that the rib that runs down the center of the valance panel and hood were also removed to make the new hood look like it belongs. We're really happy with the way it turned out.

That is awesome! I was wondering how long it would take for somebody to put that ZL-1 hood on a 69 Camaro. Its going to look fantastic!

Check out the revised Dan Steinhauser (http://www.steinhauserdesign.com) rendering of Lou's Change reflecting the design of the hood. Looks killer.
