Nice, nice! Loving that hood. The black really sets off the draglites as well.

Looks nice! I was following the last thread, but forgot the details. What brand of paint did you use? And any other details.:yes:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v340/marydoright/Dieters%20Nova/IMG_9688copy.jpg fyi: the paint kit comes in a little box, its called "hotrod black" and you can get it from a paint supplier for $55, it comes with the cat and reducer (1.5qts total), you need 2 kits for a complete job, but mine was done with one kit and needs another coat, i just spot primed the body work, scuffed down the old paint, wiped nova down with wax & grease remover, taped and painted it in my garage with a hvlp gun on a dirty floor with the door open, in 8 hours it was dry, it is a matte finish, not flat, feels smooth and doesnt scratch or show finger prints, the harbor freight hvlp gun left no overspray or waste. i also used a small craftsman comp. and harbor frght air drier and surge tank on a 3/4" wall air header and more importantly left my car looking evil for the woodward dream cruise!
