people who are into other cars might look at that car and see a POS, i love how us mustang guys can look at a car like that and see only potential

nice work man, i'm putting a 3" cowl on my notch too, i dont care what anyone says i like the look of it on a coupe just as much as a hatch

Thanks for the comments guys.

SMOKEDYA - Bought this hood 2 years ago sat in storage for a while and finally got around to installing it. Havent seen Harwood list the same hood on there site, I paid around $300 for mine. You can look on there site see what they go for. Here's the link.

Harwood - The Most Respected Name in Fiberglass!

ryan218 - Not sure if i'll paint it orginal (7N) Dark Shadow Blue or go black. still up in the air about the color.

asecretfile - More times than I can count, still have a few issue's to work out.

1991notchbackLX - Thanks, I thought about 3" hood too, but it wasnt available at the time.

Sweet. Nice looking notch. That would look good in that Dark Shadow Blue.

Actually, you may not need a new hood for the 351.(assuming Windsor). If your going carbed, that is.
I use a low profile air cleaner from FMS and have no clearance issues with my stock hood.

Although if I ditch my Torker II intake for a Vic Jr. and add a nitrous plate, I will probably need a new hood.
