lordairgtar Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 I'm no Vette expert but I have not seen many with a stinger hood, even big block powered cars. They are out there but most are custom fitted. I researched tons of pics online and even big block cars seem to have the hood one normally associates with the 350 engine. I do prefer the "big block" hood better though. Maybe someone with a bit more Vette knowledge can clarify. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nosferatu Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 This build is looking great! I love the color and how you transformed it to a '73. Dave 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They used the same hood as small block cars in 73, but I only had a spare flat hood from an old amt annual kit, so I molded the 68-69 L88 scoop on it, I also had to remove the wiper door from the original 71 body Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whosurdaddy209 Posted November 22, 2023 Author Share Posted November 22, 2023 This one has been sitting for a while, I think it’s about time to finish it up, I think I stopped right around the time to do the interior, I think I’m gonna go with dark saddle, I thought about black but i think it would be to boring on this car since the green doesn’t exactly scream look at me😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
