This is a blank sheet of 18 gauge cut to size for the Hood side.
Here you can see where I extended the Cowl so that the Hood line matches the Door edge.
Blank sheet on a Template cut out with a Router to the desired shape.
The 12 Cylinder cars, and their Hoods are 6" longer than a standard Auburn with an 8 Cylinder. The Hood sides I have are in terrible condition, so I had to make some new ones for myself.
Air hammer, Blocking hammer, Corking Tool all used to get the finished ledge, 3/16" deep
A quick look to see if I have the right size of screen. (Insert frame is not made yet)
