Thanks, Wylde :-D
...So, here goes. This is the basis for building a scooped hood. I'm keeping this air cleaner, but will get a small lid that will just fit the air filter itself.
Give us specifics on the air cleaner pieces-parts. I'm wanting to do something very similar but need to find a cheap air cleaner base. What car is your base from? How far is the drop on that base and what is the outside diameter?
... Talking the drop around the carb or the depth for the filter element? Never measured the one for the carb and can't remember the one for the element.
The drop around the carb. Hope this make sense...here goes...If you sit the air cleaner base on a flat surface if carb opening sits higher than the outside of the base it has a drop base. You can measure from the carb opening to the flat surface to determine the drop distance.
I'M INTERESTED!! But you probably already knew that. Glad to see you are back at it, looking forward to progress. I like what you are doing to the hood, I thought of doing something very similer to mine. I even bought an extra hood last year to modify. The way the center of the hood is shaped raising the back of looks like it will fit the style well. good luck and keep us posted. I'll park next to you in the M body section at Carlisle in 2012.
Wow :tongue9: You are getting after it :cheers: And looking good :thumleft::thumleft:
Looking forward to seeing it all skinned and primed in, You are making some cool and good calls here :happy10:
You take care and don't over do it brother. I hope you are doing well, I see your hood scoop is =P~:thumleft:
Then I can rip her to pieces and really haul ***. :-D
You're making a Donkey hauler?!!8):bootysha:
Looking good brother. Nice job on the hood.
Thanks, bro. No where near complete yet, but it's getting there. Once I'm back in form, it should take about a week to finish it up.
ya healed up yet? or do you have so hot little red headed nurse stopping by everyday, to um.....check things out:toothy10: it's been a month since you last posted, so send the nurse my way and get back to work.
Nice to see the "M" bodies getting some well deserved loving!!!!! I always liked the 5th Avenue, Diplomat's and Fury's of the 80's, actually used to have one. These were the nicest of the V8 models offered by Chrysler at the time and were definatley luxury in nature but still retained the V8 power. Great job on your transformation/restoration. The scoop looks sweet and you have made a lot of progress on this one. Do not over do it though. Prayers for a quick recovery sent your way Robert.
