Thank you everyone for the kind words. I was afraid it was looking generic.
So today I started on the hood. I have much more to do to the cab, but I want a small change of pace for a bit

This is the top panel, cut slightly larger then needed

Really it doesn't look much different other then a slight curve added

These are my curved extensions to reach down to the side panel, this also shows the break I use aswell

This makes the last pic make alittle more sense

The needed " I started to solder it" pic lmao

And here I've lined it up to the cab, it looks kind of silly yet, but in the end it should look just right.
Some of you may have noticed I've strayed from the 367 models hood design. I made a fiberglass hood for it, but I just didn't like the look, this hood design is based on a 389 model, but could I get some one to give me the overall height measurements front and rear of the hood. A standard kh hoods dimensions are fine. It would be extremely helpful, thanks in advance
Tim

I thought I'd add the picture of my original fiberglass hood, it's just the rough form, and I'll keep it around for a future project.

Does anyone think it looks dis-proportionate, I think it does
