just got my new hood looks good. just one ? I seen a blue one on here with the hood flat black. my camaro is purple, think the hood will look good in the flat black? :lala:

 

show us some pics!!!!!!!

 

did you order it from gt-auto?

can you get pics of the backside of it PLEASE?

 

black hoods are for school busses and ricers.

 

Or people w/ black cars

 

How dare you post this with no pics.....

 

hi... hey did you get this from g&t fiberglass... i ordered one and if you happen to have pictures that would be great if you can post them or contact me. I am going to put my car in for paint and i would like to view a few others to see what colors are going to bring out the hood best! there were a few on the website but i would like to see how it looks with different colors.. the guys at g&t said they will post new pictures from their clients as they get them in.... they were nice to deal with...

i must say i agree with the gentle about the black hood on a different color car.... it just shouldn't happen!!!

thank you for the info and i hope to see your pictures soon...

 

I have no way to get pictures on my computer but it does look just like the one on the other cars posted on this board. when I talked to Todd at G&T he said someone on this board tracked down the maker of the origianal hood and gave the # to them (G&T) then they got the mold from the guy who made it years ago. The only diffrence he said was they had to add a lip on the two sides of the hood to make it look better. I will see if they have any pictures to post. I think I will do it flat black just until I can get it painted.

 

wtf?? Add lips!?

I want to see pics, if they have started re-production of the hood then I am so in on it.

 

bigbird, what state is bar harbor in? if it's near CT, i could snap some pics for you

 

WHATEVER state you're in, post it. I guarantee someone here will take pics for you.

 

hey i just talked to gt again. they will email me pictures so i can post them. they have moved to CT. from FL. so Diabolical you should swing by and check it out. i may be stopping by there shop next weekend myself. i will try to post the pisctures as soon as i get them. oh yea, how do you post pictures?? or can i just email them to someone else to post? i suck at this computer stuff.

 

At the bottom of the form where you type in you post, there is a box that says "Attach File". Click the browse button next to it and find the picture file on your computer, then press "Submit Reply" like you always would, and wha-la, you have a picture on your post

And tell those bungholes at GT Auto to post the pics on their own friggin website, lol!

 

here you go bigbird

Yea, I think I know what hood is going to go on my car when I'm ready for one. That is SWEET. :hail:

 

from gtauto's website

 

Diabolical, thanks for posting the pics for me. I should be getting mine painted next week. I will try to post the pics then but if I can't I will email them to you again.
Thanks

 

why do those three holes all look different and mis shaped?

 

I THINK IT IS JUST THE PICTURE. MINE LOOKS EVEN. THE CENTER IS A LITTLE BIGGER THEN THE TWO ENDS BUT THAT IS THE WAY THE HOOD IS SHAPED.

 

I LOVE that hood. That hood is the reason that I want to get a thirdgen camaro. Cant wait to see pics of it on your car.

Brian

 

Thats an excellent hood, it should look good on the car.

 

Where can I get one of these hoods? I love it!!!!

 

the hood is from http://www.gtautoacc.net

 

How tall are they? Look to be about 3 inches near the center.

 

Looks like just another cowl hood.

Am I missing something?

 

i dont think so..it looks like a regular cowl hood to me as well...oh well..

iroc2nv

 

the cowl is much wider than a cowl hood, and the sides go down on an angle instead of straight down like a normal one. imo the jongbloed looks much better and flows with the body of a camaro much better than a cowl hood

 

How much underhood clearance is gained with this hood? I'm probably going to order one in the next couple of weeks. I was going to do a manifold swap at the same time, just curious how much room I have to play with.

 

it def. looks better then cowl hoods, except maybe a replica 69 Z/28. They have a very small cowl. i like how the hood lines matches up with the headlight buckets. very nice, and i agree, it does flow with the car.. i could only dream........

 

i love how this guy from gt auto asked for permission to put a picture of my car on his website.....

but yeah congrats on the hood, it's a great hood!

 

Your narrow mind neglected squeezing out the correct spelling of 'buses'.

 

Those look great If I got one i'd probably paint it satin black just to see how it looked

 

I like that hood. I've been saying for the last six years they shold make one like that. Now they need one with the provisions for the Iroc louvers

 

I didn't know they had r1ce in the 70's.

 

Personally I don't care for that hood at all. Just don't like the look of it. But heh, to each his own. Its your car

 

Mike, i understand ya on that one...

 

I LOVE that car, absolutely love it. I want one, always have. It's the epitomy of 70's muscle.

 

Yay! Someone ELSE sick of this 'A musclecar is a musclecar, PERIOD. No exceptions' persona...haha Jim...

 

That address doesn't seem to exist, according to my web browser.

This hood isn't available for Trans Ams?

EDIT:

Found them... G & T Fiberglass

$350 unprepped, $440 prepped, for the Camaro Jongbloed hood

 

Anybody else want to post pics running this hood?

 

here is mine.....bought it from gt fiberglass about 6 yrs ago.......dont think they are in business anymore though

 

few more

 

Wow your car looks great, thats the 3 inch right? They sell it on HawksThirdgen and I think its on my to do list.

 

yes it is a 3 inch.best hood i ever bought. flows well with the nose

 

Nice car!!

 

Don't they call these hoods "Sunoco" hoods as well. It is by far the best hood for a 3rd gen!!!

 

The rounded bulgy edges dont flow with the angular lines of a thirdgen AT ALL. Looks like they put too much yeast in it before they baked it. To each his own.
