I had to strip all the old flaking and chipping paint from the frame. I used filler primer and wet sanded twice to make the frame as nice as i could. It been alot of work.

Body work and primer.


More primer and a guide coat.



I want to get the front and side bevels of the hood, so I pulled a secondary mold plug to insert into the mold before I lay up carbon fiber. I will have beveled edges on my hood instead of the standard straight side edges on other fiberglass hoods.






I should be laying up the frame mold later today.

The frame masked off, waxed and coated with release agent.



Frame sprayed with orange tolling gelcoat.




Some numbers stamped in the rear drivers side frame of the hood. Anybody know what they mean?

Hood scoops on some hard board for a border and flange. I lay these molds up over the weekend.
