Another one of my favorite stock cars (71 Cyclone/Montego, 73 Montego GT and the 76 Cougar) Gonna watch this.

As an FYI, the 1:1 hood for the Montego GT and Cougar interchange, so you will have the same shapes and peak, just no scoops.

No problem, I just know most of us try to be as accurate as possible, especially with a scratch build or conversion.

Just notice you are from Cleveland... I am 40 minutes from downtown.

Nice work so far Gerald. I am a little baffled as to why you are changing the top of the windshield. The real problem might be us sourcing a clear windshield after the mods. I was thinking just buy a 76 Torino kit for the glass, that seems "out the windiw" now. Am I missing something?

I was hoping for the Montego earlier version, the one used after the 73 Montego GT. I know, you can't please us all :)
