i swear that looks like a full size chevy truck hood. for about an 88-97 truck. am i right?

like the stance. and i understand whgat you mean about the sidewall thing. i went to great pains to stuff some good rubber under mine. im running 255/40/17 fronts on my 70 duster, and 255/50/17 rear. good bit of sidewall, and almost enough width. when therse tires wear out, im stuffing 275/40/17 all the way around.

car is looking great. id love to see it given one good coat of DP90 epoxy primer in black, and then mocked back up. i think that would look absolutely evil.

Man you know your vehicles, your guess was spot on.\\:D/.....The dimensions couldn't have worked out better both hoods are about 47" long and the scoop follows the 73' Duster factory raised bulge almost exactly, obviously the width (66" compared to 59" on the Duster) is way off but I have to cut it to size anyway. Your on the same page as me regarding sidewall width, I have hours of research in tires for this car... I didn't want to just bolt on the size that everyone else has and not quite look right (in most cases) I like the wheel wells to be filled with tire. Some guys get the look and some guys are out in left field regarding the look and stance I'm hoping for a home run. Sorry,No black DP here, once it goes to the body guy he can handle that part I am not a paint and body guy unfortunatley...It would look good though, I'll just look at T-Graingers and make my mental changes.
