is that because of the big opening with the resessed grill and hood overhang?

Very Nice,   I like the 2 pins up front and I will have them on my car also.   
Got a pretty good start on my M46 optioned Barracuda restoration but now it is on hold till I can gather more funds.  Still need a few parts for it.  SIU Graduate 75 AAS Automotive Tech, 94 BS Advanced Tech Studies, 1997 MSED Workforce Education and Development

i like the two pins as well, but seeing the four pins up front has me worried. some of the TAs didnt have anything but the hood pins up front holding it down, right?

The hood pins were an option on the cars.  The extra two were added to help hold down the hood even tighter.  how fast do you plan on going.  I never had any problems with all the cars I have had with 2 on them.  I have had a lot of fast cars also like a 70 440-6 Cuda.  Gordon

Thanks Chris, that is exactly what i wanted. i picked the hood up today along with another flat hood and to my suprise Kevins car was burnt orange too so the flat hood is already painted  :woohoo: as soon as my A12 brackets come in the fiberglass hood is going on.

ok, its on, sortta. i am having a bad time with the ebay guy that i got the A12 Brackets from so they have not arrived yet. right now it is pinned down just in the front. Dont worry, im not driving it till the rear pin mounts get here. now, comments? how do you think it looks? i like it. I have 383 Magnum badges for a 71 super bee that i am thinking of mounting on the scoop. i am going to have to figure out how to do fiberglass work so i can repair and fill some holes on the hood.  :working:
