    I had this thing louvered and painted over a year ago and just yesterday got time to put it on!:eek: I plan on taking it to the Hamb Drags.
    There is a better shot of the whole car on page 2!

    Looks really good, and I bet it runs cooler too. Also love the goldish wheel color. :)

    Looks great!! Ala Tom Medleys 40. Three rows per side, angled to follow the flow of the hood. Very nice.

    Louvers are proportional to the hood shape, all right.

    Just hope they get you into the 12s...

    If you bring that car to the HAMB Drags, you will be wiping my drool off it...

    Nice car. Nice louvers.

    Love those Louvers! I traded my stock hood to a friend that didn't want louvers on his.... I haven't got it ready, so for now I'm running an old louvered hood from a moonshiners car in Kentuckey.

    Nice that you had them go with the contour of the hood. As it should be IMO
