Welcome to the site!  WOW if I didn't know better . . . I would think that was MY car you just showed us!  Very nice!  So are the hood inserts black?

4cruizn- they are. I have seen some hood inserts that are painted red, and some black.  is there a significance for the colors? I was thinking of painting mine red to match the front grill inserts...

I have seen them orange, red and many other colors . . . I decided on argent silver which is the same as the grill.  I wanted to give them definition but not be too much . . . .

Welcome aboard. I love the sound of a 340.  What are you running for exhaust?

Beautiful car - and welcome :wave:

Anyone else notice the driveways? I had to do a double-take or are you guys sharing the same driveway contractor?
