Looking to replace the hood lacing on my Super Six. Would love to see a picture of an original car with the lacing so I can have an idea of what it should look like after I am done.

Can someone supply that or point me in the direction of where I could find one.

Thanks

Scot

    I have an original car I can photograph for you, Scott, but I'm not sure what you mean by "hood lacing." :)

    Sam, he means the fabric stuff that rivets to the cowl, against which the hood fits. "Cowl lacing", really.

    Thanks Jon, that is what I was referring to.

    Thanks Sam, Keep meaning to see if I can come by and look at your car. I sometimes visit Socorro and need to budget me time better.

    For what it's worth, here's a couple of photos of my 71-year-old hood lacing. Had to wait until the weekend to photograph...work keeps interfering with the rest of my life...:cheer:

    Thank you Sam,

    That answered my questions: Which side is up and where does it terminate. Sort of the same questions I have a work....
