    1965 hood

    Hers is a picture from my 65 project car. Looks like St. Louis skimped on the paint.....No silver on passenger side edge on bare glass near the front.

      Looks like he was "A" tired "B"right handed "C" didnt care . The front of your hood does look a little bare but it should not have any paint on the front lip area.

          Mike, would you mind posting some other photos of the underneath side of your hood? I'd like to see the side paint margins. Thanks... Tony

              Pretty typical of factory production. Maybe a little less than usual on the sides.

                  No problem. The top side had been repainted before being replaced with a repo stinger hood many years ago. Aging on the underside.

                          Brutally in conflict with 2012 NCRS "thinking", St Louis did NOT "restore" Corvettes.......in any year.

                                  Lack of paint on the front of the hood bottom was more likely the "rule", rather than the exception at St Louis. Your '62
                                  tanker is just a little bit better than St Louis ever hoped for......like 175% better.

                                      I know that and you know that. But not all cars from St Louis were that bad.
                                      I have seen some decent work in original cars. I cant imagine anyone who
                                      goes thru the pain and agony to restore a car would want to emulate poor work
                                      quality no matter where the car was made, but I may be wrong on this one.
                                      Thanks for the compliment on my car.

                                          Jaime, as I kid my friends from the east side of Missouri, alot of these cars were built pretty rough because they were built in St. Louis and not Kansas City!
