    Finally started taking her apart for some body work and a new paint job!

    Now, I would like your opinions. I have a '76 Pace Car Spoiler that I am going to put on the car, and I would like to do something for the hood. I don't think the GS scoops would look right on the Regal, but what do you think about the Grand National Bulge? I think it may look cool.

    Brian, your keeping her !!!, good for you !!! I tried the turbo bulge on my 73, did not work for me, but maybe it would for you. I got mine from a wrecked t-type. The slope of the hoods were different enough to make it a diificult job. The spoiler will look sweet. Like my 73, those rear wheel wells will fit some nice fat tires as well. Another option is the steel cowl style scoops sold by the speed center, www.thespeedcenter.net

    Thanks Scott! Yeah I was wondering about that for the hood, but I think the 76-77 is a little flatter that than the 73-75's, I am thinking about going with a fiberglass repo one from www.laureneng.com. I'll check your site out as well!

    What's the biggest wheel/tire combo that you can fit in these things?

    thanks again.

    I am sure a P295 would fit, maybe even a P315 - if you can get one (P315) with the same tire height (just under 27" diameter). As far as the hood, flatter is worse. I was surprised at the true slope of the Ttype hood compared to my flatter hood.

    Really, that is interesting to know about the hood...
