for reference i'd paint both the flat and a rallye, i have this issue with my cuda as i have a rallye but want a shaker, so when i get to that point of painting, i am going to paint both hoods at the same time,  that way i can work on the shaker parts,

A shaker looks the best on the Cuda's.
I agree   keep both hoods have them painted at the same time.


Do a search on  http://www.cars-on-line.com/plymouth.html
and look at other Barracuda's with or without or

.

GoodysgotaCuda is a awesome Yellow Jacket.  Flat hood makes car look longer....Nice color choice......
I think the color makes the cars............

Yep,  get the scoop hood,  paint them both same time as car,  switch them off periodically for a change of pace.   I do this with my 76 Celica.  I got a flat trunk lid and a another with a trans am wing molded to it.
