Dennis had what was probably the only 63 aluminum hood inner structure in the country. I had what was likely the only skin. Today we are marrying them and fitting the hood to a car. The finished piece is destined to go on the Jackshaw car

The Jackshaw car had power brakes??????

 

[RCampbell]

No...Jackshaw is still at the sign painter's shop...I think it is in jail. We're fitting the hood to a convertible I have

They were...of course..originally spot welded. We used a bit of tug...and a bit of 3M panel bond

TIG not TUG. I guess there was some tugging going on too
