There seems to be a lot of white 67-9 valiants....mine being 1 of them :)
 
i love the hood. looks great.

not only that from above it looks like it's pointing at the car in front. this will give the birds some direction haha.
 
the hood is Duster ladder bar I just purchsed a stencil kit and painted it John Deere Blitz Black with some hardner in it
 
always like to be diff. on my cars, don`t want to see another one like it. hood looks kick-a$$ !

Good to hear and yes I like my cars alot different other wise I would own a Chevy you know they still make them in Mexico or so it seams there are so many of them alike hard to be different with that brand
 
test fit the grille still need to finish it and trying to figure out color for bumper
any suggestions besides body color

The bumper looks pretty good white and sticks out with the hood stripes
 
The grille will be chrome powder coated and yes I'm playing with different grey's and silvers


Keep in mind that if you're going with a silver or chrome powder coating on your grille, it will need to be cleared too (or it won't be UV stable and you'll eventually have to polish it ... a lot). Chrome powders look fabulous right out of the oven, but once the clear goes on it sadly takes most of the pop and mirror-effect out of it.
 
I wonder if a good quality auto clear would stick and provide protection without dulling it out.?

That's fine I'm really not after shinny as long as it doesn't grey it
 
after a few trials I decided on this for my bumpes
