First, let me say that, this is not another bitch session. I like the car very much. I haven't heard anyone say anything about the hood fit on the '04. Specifically how it overhangs the grill. It doesn't blend smoothly into the grill. Rather than the leading edge coming to a clean thin edge, it has a big radius. It was one of the first things I noticed when I fist saw the car at P.O.C.I.. Today I got my new Car Craft in the mail. Inside is a review of the new goat. It has a picture of a '64 and a '04 side by side. The hood looks like it overhangs two inches. I know it doesn't. But, you can see the shadow it casts on the grill. I just don't understand why this is. Maybe the '05 will blend better.

No, it will not blend better as in fact it's the same hood with big holes in it. How do I know? Well, because I have already caressed one or two of them.

Yes, I'd say they are tough! Not too big or too small IMHO.
