    i felt the stock ford hood had too much crown and too high a peak, , ,
    to solve the problem, i grafted in a hood section from a 56 lincoln, which has a much flatter surface, and a nice little peak, , ,still need to cut the bottom of the stock ford hood away, but i'm temporarily leaving it there to support the weight of the hood until i can reconfigure the bottom, , ,well, it's official now, , ,the car no longer has any panels that haven't been altered in some way, , , lolol...:D
