Rose,
Great pics! I'm glad I got to see "her" in person at the cruise-in the other night. You and Al are doing a great job with Rosie!

Hi Rose,
You have a beautiful car there. The hood you have on Rosie is awesome. What kind is it? Isn't it called a Stinger hood? I have a question, though Rose. I've done some modifications on my '77 L-82, including an Edelbrock Air Gap intake and a 3" K & N air filter setup on top of the Quadrajet. This definitely won't fit under my stock hood. I'm thinking about going with an L-88 hi rise because I need close to 5". Do you know how high your hood sits and could you tell me where you found yours?
Thanks, Marc.

Sorry for the slow reply....I was on vacation!!!
The hood was originally a ''stinger'' hood (bought it from Ecklers)....but just didn't really like the way it ''fit''...so....I took the scoop from the stinger and attached it to the original hood....MUCH better now and it is functional.
..I have about 4-5 inches of clearence.
