Full Metal Hoodie.
Now that the fenders have been chopped and fit, it's time
to start on the hood. Both the stock SSR hood and the stock '53 Chevy hood
will used (in part, at least).
First, the '53 hood has to be narrowed so it will fit the
SSR. This is done by cutting it up the centerline.
Once the width is determined, we have to lower the profile
in front. The green tape line indicates where the hood will be sectioned
once again.
Once cut, the hood sections will be re-welded after the requisite
metalwork. Below you can see the nose section of the '53 hood set in place
with the stock SSR hood in thedown position.
