Different and loud, but I think I like it.

I like it. I think the black hood looks good, kind of a six pac look.

It fits with that body style, oh so well!

I think I like it too.
I got a real laugh out of the pics of his gas tank strap bolts though. :lol:

Just different enough for a Serious Satellite project. . .not a true Roadrunner look, but definitely suggestive of the seventies. I think I'd follow the lines of the body a bit more and do the entire trunk in black, but it is interesting. Nice color!

Definitely not stock.
He has replaced the factory J-bolts with a metal strap and standard carriage bolts. I'm thinking probably because he couldn't find new original style bolts. Or he was cheap like me, but didn't know how to make his own. :)
