I know I just posted this, may have been another thread ? I found this wheel from another Member here, along with some other hard to find '63 parts/panels. Needed some work, but a friend just refinished it for me. Looking forward to this year, and wrap my build up...

Thank You very much. I really appreciate the praises for my work. It’s a long love passion of mine doing cars. Thanks for liking my work.

I do have a question about your hood scoop. Is it metal or fiberglass? Does it have a gasket between it and the hood? Is it mounted with screws?

Thanks!

Yes, a very nice car!!

It’s fiberglass. It’s the only one that has the correct mounting tabs that are identical to the original aluminum one. It took me a long time to find it. Made by Glasstek. It also has the exact same dimensions as the original aluminum scoop. The original max wedge once had no gasket, put I did have to file fit the scope mounting edge to the hood to have the least amount of air gap. The screws and bolts are the same once that they use to mount the splash guard and radiator core support. They are like the fender mounting hardware only much smaller. I’ll try to get a picture for you to see. A guy on eBay had them in black oxide, that’s how the original once were mounted. Hope that helps

The last picture is the lower splash guard, the same factory hardware that holding this piece on is the same once they used for the scoops

Thanks Chuck! My 63 is a restomod, the work was done over 10 years ago, and the rubber gasket is starting to lose its shape.and has some minor gapping. Im sure its fiberglass as well, was hoping to find a replacement gasket.

Got flexible bumper paint and primer in PP1 to paint the lower dash steering column cover and horn button support ring to match my new steering wheel.
